“When Elvis was asked to play in the Houston Astro Dome, he was asked to leave his black girls at home,” “Elvis said, I’m sorry, but if my girls don’t come, I don’t come. And so we went…”
“When Elvis rode around the arena in a jeep that night, he made sure we had our own jeep, and a little blonde girl driving us. He made sure we were seen!”
