Lisa Marie Presley has recorded a track singing “In the Ghetto” with her dad Elvis to benefit Presley Place, an organization that assists with transitional housing. The video features a tearful Lisa Marie and babies holding guns in their cribs. A bit over the top, but I guess her heart is in the right place.
Still… I can’t help but be reminded of the classic “Natalie Cole: Unforgivable” SNL skit. Wait for Chris Farley as Mama Cass and Mike Myers as Judy Garland. Amazing:
Lisa Marie’s video also reminded me just a little bit of Celine Dion singing with a holographic Elvis on American Idol:

Love the Natalie Cole sketch. Wish we could see more of Ellen Cleghorne, and sadly Melanie Hutsell seems to have dropped off the face of the earth (although according to IMDb, she’s in an indie film slated for release in ’08).
really cool video,, but also kinda creepy.
