Is This Preacher Really Elvis Presley? Fans Think They’ve Found the King!

Since Elvis Presley sadly died in 1977, some devoted fans believe he faked his death to live quietly away from the public eye.

These fans think Elvis might have been hiding from the mafia, appeared as an extra in the movie *Home Alone*, visited California’s Legoland, helped out at Graceland, or is now living as a humble preacher in Arkansas.

Even though the preacher, Bob Joyce, keeps denying he’s Elvis, fans believe he’s about to reveal the truth about his faked death soon.

Keep reading to find out what the preacher says about these claims!

On August 16, 1977, the world was shocked when it was announced that 42-year-old Elvis Presley died of a heart attack.

Even though it’s been almost 50 years since his death, some people still refuse to believe the King of Rock and Roll is really gone.

To this day, Elvis-obsessed fans refuse to let go and choose to believe the gyrating gent faked his own death to go into hiding.

And now they are convinced they spotted the “Jailhouse Rock” singer living as Bob Joyce, a 72-year-old preacher in Benton, Arkansas.

Joyce looks like an older, silver-haired version of Elvis, speaks like Elvis and sings with the same soothing baritone that Elvis was adored.

And when a YouTube video of Joyce singing the gospel song “How Great Thou Art,” a song recorded by Elvis in 1967, conspiracy theorists went wild.

One fan wrote, “This is definitely Elvis. No one else could sing this hymn like him.”

Another fan commented, “His voice will never change. We love you and hope you share your life story with us someday. We all know who you are.”

A third fan said, “No imitation Elvis sings like Bob Joyce. Sir, I believe you are Elvis. The rhythm and tone of your voice are unmistakable.”

Another fan wrote, “I love you, Elvis Bob Joyce. I know who you are, but it’s okay. No more spotlight, just peace of mind. You still have my heart.”

However, Bob Joyce, the gospel singer and preacher at The Household of Faith Church, says he is not Elvis Presley and is instead a messenger of God.

He explains, “No, I’m not Elvis. Many people ask me that. I’ve tried to tell everyone, ‘No, I’m not Elvis.’ I’m actually almost 20 years younger than Elvis, who would be 89 in 2024. Even though most people know I’m not Elvis, they are grateful that God is helping them through their struggles.

“Maybe God is using Elvis’ voice to heal broken hearts and lives. If Elvis were alive, I’d say to him, ‘We’re kindred spirits.’”

Still, many of Joyce’s fans are adamant in saying he hasn’t come out yet and will soon reveal his big secret to the world.

“All his [members of the congregation] knows it’s him as well as the many visitors to his church every Sunday from around the world know it’s him. He’s getting ready to explain it all (why he faked his death & changed his name) very soon,” writes Alabama’s Samantha Drummond Dunn, who plans on traveling to Arkansas to meet Joyce. Encouraging others to watch his YouTube videos, which she says serves as proof, she demands, “It is him!”

Poking fun at her statement, another netizen writes, “If it’s on the Internet it must be true.”

The Bob Joyce website warns people about fake social media accounts pretending to be him, including the one mentioned by Drummond Dunn. The website says, “People have impersonated Bob Joyce many times. He does not send private messages online. The only real Facebook account for Pastor Bob Joyce is: facebook.com/bob.joyce.75. Any other accounts claiming to be him on Facebook or elsewhere are not genuine.”

The statement also notes that Bob Joyce is not on Instagram or TikTok.

My Stepmom Wore a White Dress to My Wedding, Claiming She “Deserves Attention Too”, My Husband Showed Her a Lesson She Won’t Forget

When Alexandra’s stepmother, Linda, showed up at her wedding in a white dress, demanding attention, Alexandra knew drama was coming. However, her husband Tom had a clever plan to shift the focus back to the special day. Linda was busy arranging flowers for the wedding, insisting that everything needed to be perfect. Alexandra watched from the dining table, sipping tea and trying to stay calm, while her father praised Linda’s skills.

Linda entered Alexandra’s life when she was ten, after her mother passed away. Since then, she had always enjoyed being the center of attention. As she fussed over the flowers with dramatic flair, Alexandra couldn’t help but worry about what Linda might do at the wedding. Despite her excitement about the big day, Alexandra felt anxious about Linda stealing the spotlight, just like she had on past birthdays and holidays. Trying to distract herself, she asked her dad about the wedding, but Linda quickly jumped in, reminding everyone how important this day was.

As Alexandra met her best friend Sarah at the wedding planner’s office, she revealed her worries. Sarah, noticing Alexandra’s distress, reassured her that everything would be fine. However, the planner, Grace, informed them that Linda insisted on sitting in the front row and giving a speech. This was not traditional, as those spots were usually reserved for the bride’s parents. Alexandra felt frustration bubbling up, knowing Linda would make the day about herself. They discussed ways to address the situation, including having someone else give a speech in honor of Alexandra’s mother.

After meeting with Grace, Alexandra returned home to share her concerns with Tom. She expressed her fear that Linda would overshadow the wedding. Tom comforted her, assuring her they would handle it together. On the wedding day, while preparing, Sarah rushed in, pale and panicked, to tell Alexandra that Linda had arrived in a full-length white wedding dress. Alexandra was furious and confronted Linda, who unapologetically claimed it was her moment to shine.

Tom urged Alexandra to trust him, and the ceremony began with Linda sitting in the front row, soaking up the attention. As Alexandra tried to focus on her vows, she couldn’t ignore Linda’s smug expression. When it was time for speeches, Alexandra felt tense. Just as Linda stood to speak, Tom took the microphone and presented a video tribute to Alexandra’s late mother. The room filled with heartfelt memories, and Linda’s confidence began to fade.

After the tribute, Tom invited Linda on stage, claiming they wanted to celebrate her too. But as he played a slideshow, it quickly turned embarrassing for Linda. It included footage of her sneaking into Alexandra’s bridal suite earlier, trying on her veil and twirling with the bouquet. The crowd gasped, and then Tom played a recording of Linda on the phone, bragging about her plan to outshine Alexandra. Shocked murmurs filled the room, and Linda’s face turned crimson.

Tom then introduced Linda’s ex-husband, who shared stories of her past antics. Humiliated, Linda slipped out of the hall as Tom and Alexandra exchanged knowing smiles. They had turned the day back to what it was meant to be, a celebration of love and memory, not about Linda. Have you ever had to stand up to someone at your wedding?
