You've probably heard of the recent Elvis biopic that came out this year, but do you know more about the man behind the screen... or even more so, the women that stood behind him, were overshadowed by him, and even inspired him? Today we're talking about the women BEHIND Elvis. From Big Mama Thorton to Priscilla Presley, Ann-Margret Olsson, and beyond, we discuss the controversial relationships with the talented women that stood behind the King of Rock and Roll throughout his tumultuous life.TW: We do mention (very briefly) at different points, different types of abuse (physical, emotional), and grooming as well as drug and alcohol abuse and harmful dieting.<a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1261082/The-Kings-troubling-obsession-Elvis-woman-So-able-form-relationships-virginal-girls.html">The King's Troubling Obsession</a>Episodes Like This One: <a href="https://morethanamuse.simplecast.com/episodes/men-we-hate-in-art-and-music">Men We Hate in Art &amp; Music</a>, <a href="https://morethanamuse.simplecast.com/episodes/rosetta-tharpe">Sister Rosetta Tharpe</a>, <a href="https://morethanamuse.simplecast.com/episodes/marni-nixon">Marni Nixon</a>Follow us on Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/morethanamuse.podcast/">@morethanamuse.podcast</a> Learn more about your ad choices.

Olivia Newton-John: From Country Charts to Grease Glory

Welcome to MORE THAN A MUSE, a weekly podcast where we explore the lives of women artists, musicians, writers, sculptors, and more. Join Stauney (a graphic designer) and Sadie (a singer-songwriter) EVERY MONDAY as we reframe art history and pop culture with feminism, empowering women to be educated, unapologetically angry, and champion those whom history has forgotten. Through in-depth historical discussions and pop culture chats, we spotlight unsung heroines, all while challenging the status quo. It's time to remember every woman artist as 'More Than A Muse'.
