Elvis Presley's teenage grandson gets record deal

Ben Presley snapped up by Universal

Elvis Presley's grandson Ben Presley is about to continue the Presley legacy by signing a record deal with Universal.

Ben, the 17-year-old son of Elvis' daughter Lisa Marie Presley, has been offered a $5 million [£3.3 million] deal by Universal to make up to five albums, reports the Telegraph.

"The music will be nothing like Elvis, nothing like him at all," he said.

The teenager is currently taking a break from making the album, which he hopes to release next year.

"He's a typical 17 year-old," says his spokesman. "He doesn't get up before midday and then grunts at you."

This is awesome news if true! By the way - his name is Ben Keough not Ben Presley.
