Folks who believe that Elvis Presley is still alive might want to consider slotting him into their death pools, since the shock of having two of his most prized records snatched away by Madonna and Mariah Carey could well shuffle him off this mortal coil once and for all. The Material Matron has officially dethroned the King as the artist with the most Top Ten hits in chart history, thanks to the ascent of '4 Minutes,' her 37th such smash. Carey, in the meantime, has wriggled past Elvis to become the solo artist with the most No. 1 hits, now that her 'Touch My Body' has risen to that peak.
On the other hand, we're fairly certain that neither lady will challenge Presley's unparalleled dominance in pop's bacon-eating arena.

She is awesome and a great example for young women today. I have seen her photo on a celebrity and millionaire dating site named " S earching M illionaire.com".. Many men winked at her there.

say and believe what you will, however, using your own words , Im also "fairly certain" that 30 years after the passing of MARIAH and MADONNA, they wont have the fan base, the licensing appeal ,and the their music will not be selling like Elvis. congratulations to Mariah and Madonna---but lets not get crazy. To write an article that forgets to mention "worldwide sales" (which ELVIS is still #1) is irresponsible and comes across to me, you didnt do your proper homework or worse yet, just conveniently forgot to mention.

Comparing Elvis to Madonna and/or Mariah Carey is a disgrace to the King. Rewrite this article IF the two of them combined EVER SELL OVER 1 BILLION ALBUMS WORLDWIDE. A couple of broken records do not topple Elvis from the throne. Please tell me that you honestly think these two "artists" are in any way, shape or form as relevant to the history of music as Elvis Presley. Are you a music expert or a comedy club reject who knows how to type?

RJ, i also have sirius so that i can listen to elvis. madonna, mariah, yippie-yippie, big deal........they are not elvis, and they will never sell over 1 BILLION albums like elvis did, and his records, (cd's) are still selling. elvis was the first performer ever to have 4 sold-out shows at madison square garden-1972. elvis never talked bad about the united states like madonna has....she made a music video throwing a hand grenade at a president bush look-a-like. she hates the U.S.. elvis served in the army for 2 years. i like her music, but she blows. elvis had many problems, but at least he was patriotic. check out the 1973 aloha special that he did. his suit had the american eagle on it.

I am an Elvis fan, have been for over 50 years and there is no way anyone can replace what he has done.
He is dead, yes, and still selling records. I didn't like your comment about the bacon either. I eat bacon and I bet you do to.

Elvis is dead (30 + yrs) How can he compete. I swear I read these comments and laugh.

Elvis forever!!!!

Men or women or whom ever will never compete with the many accomplisments Elvis no matter how long they live. He was in music since the 50's and this is 2008 and dead or alive he's still making money with the help of his devoted family and fans. Long live Presley music.

As talented as these two women are (well at least Mariah can actually sing)...they will never take Elvis's rightful place in music history...selling alot of records don't necessarily make you a music legend. Elvis fans have nothing to worry about.

Elvis was NEVER a good singer, no matter what you nutty kooks say. This is just a prime example of how the media messes with your mind and makes you believe what they want. Elvis had a massive P.R. staff, making him what they wanted of him. The man could NOT sing, was NOT sexy, and was disgusting, in my opinion and that of anyone who really KNOWS and understands music. Swivel hips does not a singer make.
And when grown women stand outside the gates of his home in Memphis, hanging on and sobbing, SOMEONE'S VERY SICK. Ugh !! Loonies - all of you.

ELVIS WILL ALWAYS BE THE KING AND NO OVERLY MADE-UP HO WILL EVER REPLACE HIM.
