Like a more like, like putting me on like in the hot seat kind of experience, which I've never like as an actor, I'm just having a nice time doing press, you know? And I was like, wow. because it's like related to my mom. I'm getting the energy my mom would get, you know?
I'm like, wait, this does not happen anymore.
Yeah, I'm like, do you want to fight? That's crazy. Yeah. But then I realized like, What she would have been dealing with.
It's really wild. Like, I don't quite understand either. It's like, there's still movies all the time. Like, and I'm like, this is, you know, it's amazing that somebody could, you know, impact this. people so much. It's really unique. And I really appreciate it because, of course, we love our family. you know, want other people to as well.
But I do, I do often go like, there's always like in my inbox, like this movie and that movie and Elvis's. And I'm like, wow, it's really. Still popping. Still popping.
I do feel relief because it felt like this thing that I knew was coming that was going to be this big thing and I did sort of want it to be over. Yeah. You know? I think this is like my last podcast, by the way. Woo!
I'm going out with a bang. I love it. I love it. And I yeah, I don't want to think about my trauma all day, every day.
No, I didn't want to. I don't know. To be honest, I had no expectations.
I literally we can't.
No, I appreciate it.
OK.
It really is. It is. Well, I really appreciate you having me. I mean, I listen to your podcast, so that's very cool. I do a lot of podcasts and I don't listen to all of them, so I don't know what I'm doing. And I really love your podcast, so I'm really happy to be here. So thank you for having me. Oh my gosh.
I feel like I have like two lives kind of.
Tell me, what do you want to talk about? Oh, that's a good question. I don't know. I don't have anything particular that I want to talk about, but I'm happy to talk about anything, literally. So whatever you feel is appropriate.
Well, my name is Riley Keough and I am the daughter of Lisa Marie Presley and Danny Keough and the eldest grandchild of Elvis Presley. That's the sort of the easy, the cliff notes. Tell us about your mama. My mother was Lisa Marie Presley, and she was a wonderfully unique and fierce and incredibly strong woman and mother who had a really... unique life, obviously.
And, you know, I think a lot of human experiences within this unique setting, but she kind of, you know, obviously lost her father and grew up in a very intense situation of being Elvis Presley's only child.
Well, it's something I think about a lot. I'm kind of somebody who's obsessed with like where I came from and what happened to my parents and their parents. And so I know everything, you know, and I always have. And that kind of had nothing to do with Elvis. It was more just like on both sides of my family, I was always very curious.
And I think I always had an instinct of like about sort of carrying that because when I would find these things out about my family members I'd never met, there was an emotional connection to them, you know? And so on that side of the family, there's a long history of poverty for one. My family came from many generations of really kind of extreme poverty and addiction, alcohol abuse, drug abuse.
And she, my mother, you know, also suffered from addiction and And lost her father at nine. And so I think the grief of that really dictated a lot of her life and the way that she wasn't. really able to process it, I think, because of the nature of the grief and how it was a sort of shared grief and it was a global grief.
And so I don't think there was particularly a lot of room for her to have her own grief. So that was really unique. But outside of the Elvis stuff, there is a lot of generational trauma, you know?
