Hi Billy and Jo I would see Elvis Concerts in Las Vegas every Summer he was always awesome. One time I hollered at Elvis when I was 13 yrs. Old come up here to my booth I was sitting in Elvis yelled back at me Baby throw down your hotel key and I will be up later. Of course he was just joking, but did it make my night I will never forget it. My parents would take me and my sister to every Las Vegas Concert. No one could perform better Concert.

[@soniagardencourtreporter1173]

Also, I love Jo's hair, and happy you two stayed together!!!!

[@nancyericson4263]

Another episode, another hairstyle. Lol!

[@cynthiabehn4532]

I agree with Sonia Garden Court Reporter - Jo's hair looks AMAZING. I like it so much better like she wears it today!

[@NYCgirl927]

I love the relationship between Danielle, Jo and Billy. This dear couple taught their family to love one another and stay close. I really feel that Lisa Marie got screwed when Priscilla took her away and got them involved in the cult of Scientology. No one closer to Elvis than Billy and Jo, not even Priscilla.

[@sandralybrand9425]

I think Elvis found comfort and appreciated having y'all around especially in his last years. He knew who really loved and cared about him! Y'all were with him through thick and thin and I believe he trusted y'all above anyone else. He loved his daddy but couldn't fully trust him because he knew that Parker was always in his ear. He also knew that Billy would always tell him the truth and not just what he wanted to hear, so respect was also an important part of his relationship with Elvis. I'm so glad he had you 2 to count on, and I know it enriched his life. We all wish we had people like you in our life that we could count on no matter what.

[@barbaraschaffer4938]

I like thing my his last years were calmer more relaxed. Thx. For being with him til.the end

[@exdus235]

👍👍👍❤️

[@123Rockchild]

You two are treasures. Thank you for being there for ELVIS. It sounds like he really needed your friendship and support in those last years of his life.

[@jamesburrows6226]

Thanks for the stories only you two could tell. It is so fascinating, as a elvis, fan to hear this inside look to Elvis's life. Thank you all and have a great Halloween.

[@crystlfaith921]

Question...Billy you washed Elvis' hair that night/early morning on Aug 15/16...was there any white/gray showing? The last pic taken with him returning home shows none, yet Larry Gellar says he used mascara on his hair at the morgue...can you please clear this up for us fans? Thanks!! Love 💘 and appreciate these videos...y'all do a Fantastic job!!

[@cor-z8m]

After so many years we can still see how much you still miss EP.

[@USAMAGATrump]

You can definitely tell you're Elvis's cousin. Do you sing Billy? 🎶

[@TheLoadedGoat1963]

Thanks Danielle, Billy and Jo, great video I appreciate you taking the time to share memories of Elvis with us. 🧡

[@joanneresh6682]

Elvis Presley is always be a Legend. Amen ❤️ 🙏 Love Joanne Resh 😊

[@rickcrane3804]

Really be interested to know Billy's thoughts on the destined to die young book? It changes so much of what we have thought of Elvis' health and choices all these decades since his death.

[@antonia6715]

Gracias Billy y Jo por comentarnos que Elvis en sus últimos años estaba feliz y con más paz eso me hace feliz. ❤❤

[@danielcruz8347]

Mr Billy Smith & family thank you for sharing your personal experiences of Elvis..These recollections make a big difference and mean much more to the admirers of thee King... peace be too all

[@marybrasier1180]

Thank you Billy and Jo, and Danielle. You all mean so much to me. Every word you speak is appreciated so much. I love it when you all laugh. This was so fascinating, your video.

[@QueenCreole77]

Sounds like beginning years were stressful and unknown on both sides. Thank you for keeping him alive for us. Billy, I’m 63 and yes that memory stuff is crappy. I was 17 and bought a ticket for the August 17, 1977 show in Portland, ME. I can’t believe I was so close to meeting him. I’m grateful you and Jo were always there for him. Family relationships are difficult at best but add the stress of his job, being on the road and being with him 24/7 definitely had to have had some rough times. Take Care

[@Shanna3fan]

Mrs Jo! Your hair looks great! Y’all are the cutest! I would like to know if yall knew June Jaunico and her friends Pat and Buddy? I enjoyed her book about the time she and Elvis dated in ‘56. Her story is much nicer about him than the book by Priscilla IMO. and I would also like to know which one of the Elvis movies is most accurate.

[@roymarksberry4152]

Ellis has got fans all the way from Australia Is God love him

[@susanclark5879]

Great memories! Who took care of your boys while you were on tour with Elvis? Love your new hair color Jo!

[@kiethee]

Hi billy and joe was so nice to see you both great stories love to hear them from people that were there it was nice to hear that elvis looked after family just a question for you both do you think that in the later years elvis might of been thinking about changing his manager at all and was the subject ever brought up throughout the years

[@gracieg7601]

Danielle does such a great job! Thank you! Hugs to you all!

[@calcuffaro]

Love your channel! Was Elvis ever aware or at all suspicious of Colonel Tom Parker’s past? I read that he was once intrigued by a story he had seen, implying that Col. Parker was not who he said he was. Thank you!

[@ArcaneWeasel]

You guys are terrific thanks for sharing your thoughts and lives with the fans.

[@lisap3344]

What was Elvis’s favorite holiday?, My guess would be Christmas . I’ve been an Elvis fan my whole life. I’m 56 from New England, love y’all ❤️😁

[@chrispeer]

Greatness is complicated. Living with and among greatness is even harder

[@florabraswell9744]

Thank you both ‘WoW what an amazing and awesome lifestyle you both had ! I would have loved to have been a fly on all the places you were, then changed back to a person lol 😂 thank you also Danielle, you do a magnificent job ‘ you seem very talented and very creative ! 🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏🕺🕺🙏

[@rubyeanes8370]

I just love y'all, and I really like Jo's hair and new glasses.

[@colleenlong2204]

I enjoyed this so much! I always look forward to your videos. ❤😊

[@marshalawson]

Truly love your sharing! I worked in film and tv for 25 yrs as an assistant to numerous celebrities, entertainers, producers, directors and it is a 24/7 days a week mentality and yes Jo one does have PTSD from living that life. I know the feeling all to well. Your life is THEIR LIFE. I had a red phone in my house that HE (one of my bosses) had the phone number to and when it rang, no matter the time of day it was him! Crazy, unforgettable times but it wore me out! Love you guys and many blessings abound...

[@mslevi7]

Wow !! How interesting , would love to listen to some !! You should KZbin your stories , bet you have quiet a few ! ! God bless !!

[@kimcraig4879]

I'm glad y'all are back...Love both of you...

[@jc23858369]

Please talk about Elvis's grandfather "Jesse". From what I understand he was the one to inspired Elvis's fancy dressing? I am from the Louisville, Kentucky area. Love the videos!!!

[@Rhondagail]

Thanks for the stories about Elvis

[@dorafirminpennington6098]

You loved him unconditionally.

[@gpt465]

Good video. Elvis must have been at times so stressed out more in beginning of career.Probably relaxed more at the end!I know it had to be so much fun when you were with him!Probably never to many dull moments!How sad it had to be when he passed for you.Thank you both for sharing!

[@joanneresh6682]

[@jballard1972]

I’m going to say something. Billy and Jo seem to be such sweet people, honest, humble, down to earth good people. I think Spa guy and Trey are as well, I’d really like to see everyone forgive and move on, help one another out and move on past it. I’m not taking sides at all, I truly would like to see it resolved. I believe the most of Elvis’ other fans the same. Love hearing your stories, appreciate EFM.

[@jeffreyjohn1691]

Thank you Billy and Jo and Danielle for sharing your memories of living with Elvis. It surely must have been an exciting life.

[@markmcclain2732]

[@lindadefontes3084]

Billy an Jo.. I heard that Elvis loved playing football. That one day Ricky Nelson surprised him an a bus of professional football players I believe from California came. Was that really true. If so that I bet was so much for Elvis an Ricky.. If you can I like to know. Thank you both for sharing your memories.. I really enjoy you all. Linda from Pennsylvania ❤️

[@bonniebrown6960]

That was a really good Q&A. I loved hearing how that worked while Elvis was on tour. I didn't realize how that worked for ya'll. Cool story!! BTW...I love your hair Jo it's so pretty!! Thank you Billy, Jo, and Danielle for another great video. Happy Happy....!! 🎃👻🍂🍁❤ Oh and praying for your friends. 🙏🙏🙏❤

[@gypsyrain7289]

So glad y'all are really opening up about the good the bad and the special days. I was a care giver for a pastor and gospel group for 20+ years and there were times that my whole life was consumed. There is definitely some ptsd to be had. Nothing on the scope of life with Elvis . Love y'all

Thank you for sharing Jo and Billy and Danielle. Has been told, that Elvis bought a house in Chino Canyon Road, Palm Springs. CA . in 1970 and he spent more and more time there and celebrating his last birthday there and he owned it until his death in 1977 In this video you talk aboth your favorite Years were the last 4 Years with Elvis You trell You had more alone time with Elvis. Then I have a question for you if you don't mind ? I've been told, that Elvis loved this house and that he spent a good amount of time here in this home for over 7 yesrs. Can you tell why Elvis really loved this house and why he felt so comfortable here ? Wish you all a happy ne week and God bless ! Greetings from Norway ⚡ ⚡

I like listening to you and your stories about life with Elvis and what all you did. Talking about your quiet time with him. Would like to have listened to what you all talked about.

[@christywhitehead3171]

Enjoyed the video love you Miss Jo very much

[@cathysmith2941]

I love your channel glad to see yall back .. did elvis ever dress up in a costume for Halloween and and did Elvis hand out candy to the kids who would go trick or treating ?

[@gracieg7601]

I wondered thst too.

[@ramondabrady8888]

Enjoyed every minute of your tine with Elvis. Billy Smith has such great sense of humor. Thanks for prayers for my sister Patsy Murphy, she passed on Oct. 30,2022 of cancer of the pancreas.

Happy Halloween 🎃 to you all! Love you guys! 🎃😎☠️👻💀🤡👽🤠🤖👹

[@piscesdyme1513]

It’s nice that you opened up and mentioned it wasn’t always easy and sometimes hard. I read in the book revelations of the Memphis Mafia recently where you mentioned the strain it had on you both as a couple. It’s nice to hear the good and not so good sometimes. Real fans know Elvis was human and not perfect I’m glad you can be real in that sense and open up about that.

[@LaurieLT88]

Love the hair color Jo.

[@sashaedwds9053]

Thank you for sharing I really enjoyed it ❤️

[@drkempo1977]

Did you (Billy and Jo) stay at 845 Chino Kanyon palm springs in the early 70's? And how was it?

[@nickyboddington6556]

Just wondering did you and jo go to the aloha from Hawaii concert and if you did what was Elvis like before and after the concert

[@scouseronthewirral]

Hi Billy & Jo, Elvis is such a massive cultural icon As a huge fan I’m intrigued to know about Elvis’s own interest in popular culture, we all know he loved Blues, Gospel and R&B but did he like other black influence genres such as Motown, Soul, Funk, Disco, Did Elvis watch Popular films such as The Exorcist Jaws The Omen, Rocky also we know he loved comedy did he watch Blazing Saddles & Young Frankenstein those Mel brooks classics, or Laurel & Hardy, did he ever show interest in Soccer, would he have loved MMA/UFC, who was Elvis’s favourite artist of the rock and roll era was it Buddy Holly, was Elvis’s into the supernatural I’ve got loads of questions but ones that have not been asked or written

[@hamhocksandflipflopsfarms]

I think Elvis, just like the rest of us, didn't want to go to work sometimes. I do think he worked too hard but sometimes the things we love so much can kill us.

[@barbaradavis2873]

Also, another question, were yall there when he helped TG Shepherd by giving him a bus? and when Eddie Rabbitt visited him after writing Kentucky Rain?
