953 nut 65,400 #1 Posted yesterday at 10:49 AM May 1, 1967, in an intimate wedding before only 14 guests, music sensation Elvis Presley marries Priscilla Beaulieu in an eight-minute civil ceremony in a private suite at Las Vegas’ famed Aladdin Hotel. The couple wants to keep the nuptials very private, so they ditch reporters by flying on a private jet from Palm Springs in the wee hours and arriving in Las Vegas at 4 a.m. The couple met in 1959 while Elvis, 24, was stationed in Germany, where Priscilla’s father was stationed as a U.S. Air Force officer. Their seven-year courtship—she was only 14 when they met—culminated when he gave her a three-karat diamond engagement ring. 2 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wrong rock star, actually rock 'n' roll musician Jerry Lee Lewis married his 13-year-old cousin, Myra Gale Brown, in December 1957. She was his third wife and was the daughter of his cousin, J.W. Brown. The scandal, particularly when revealed during a 1958 UK tour, severely damaged his career 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
