A makeup artist eerily predicted Elvis Presley's death six weeks before he died.
Forty-six years ago, Presley was found unresponsive in his Graceland estate's bathroom before he was declared dead at a hospital hours later. Although he showed deteriorating health in the months prior to his demise, a makeup artist predicted his death after seeing him in his last film.
Elvis Presley's Death Predicted
Six weeks before Presley died, a fan predicted that the King only had "six months to live" based on the late singer's looks.
In a previous interview with Express UK, The Official Elvis Presley fan club UK owner Todd Slaughter revealed he talked to a makeup artist who predicted Presley's death.
"He was laughing his tits off. But you try to remember what it was all about," he said. "He was saying something funny about Colonel Parker [Elvis' manager], not offensive or anything like that. "Of course, I did say, 'When are you going to come [to tour the UK]?'"

At that time, Slaughter already knew the singer was feeling unwell. His belief was later strengthened by their makeup artist, who said Presley's skin was pallor and that he looked like he had only got six months to live.
Instead of months, Presley only lived six weeks after the prediction as he died of a heart attack at the age of 42, with his doctors saying his addiction to prescription barbiturates worsened the condition.
Elvis Presley's Funeral
Before Presley was laid to rest, his family held a funeral service at Graceland, which was attended by 200 people. Among them were his five exes, including Priscilla Presley.
Linda Thompson, who dated Presley for five years, recalled how Priscilla blocked Vernon Presley's plans to fly her home from Las Angeles through Elvis' private plane, The Lisa Marie.
She revealed in her memoir "A Little Thing Called Life," that Presley's father tried to assist her in going back home. However, Priscilla was unhappy about it, recalling how the ex-wife told her: "I don't think you and I should arrive together. I think I should be the only one like that on the plane."
After dating Presley, she went on to pursue her career in music and dated Bruce Jenner (now Caitlyn Jenner) and David Foster.
