Hovey is a disgrace to mankind. He has spoiled the honour Elvis had achieved by having the 1,000th no.1 UK single and being seen to sing "One Night" on the world's most famous and longest running Pop Show, "Top of the Pops". Instead the BBC added insult to injury by using an Elvis Tribute Artist, Mario from "Jailhouse Rock the Musical" to sing "One Night". Mario did his best but it was Elvis that should have been there on our screens.   

Young kids watching the show will have got very confused. I don't think in the history of "Top Of The Pops" have they ever had an impersonator sing the song of any artist. Fans in the UK were outraged. They could have used dancers as they did in the old days on TOTP with some archive news clips of Elvis that are not controlled by EPE.  

Whilst fans were ranting and raving at the BBC and EPE, I was on the phone to New York and TOTP trying to get Bob Sillerman to intervene. I managed to talk to five different people in the company that handle his PR and they were sympathetic. They had heard of TOTP and realised how important it was for Elvis to show the clip. But, I only found out late on Thursday night about Elvis not appearing and with the time difference with New York I could not get through to a senior executive until 3.30pm , on the Friday, just four hours before the show. The producer of TOTP had phoned me and hinted if they were given clearance even at the 11th hour they would try and put it on the show. There had to be phone calls between New York , Memphis and Los Angeles (Hovey is in LA) and there just wasn't time. Also, I was told the sale of EPE was far from complete as there is much legality to overcome with a new PLC Company and Bob Sillerman would not have the authority to release the film clip.  

What will Lisa do to her uncle Gary when she finds out that the BBC don't want to feature her latest album suitably called "Dirty Laundry" because they were insulted by her company EPE. Also, I fully expect other British TV and possibly international TV will back the BBC in sympathy and just tell Lisa to take her album and just "Return to Sender" because you and your sorry bunch of megalomaniacs at EPE ain't nothing but "Hound Dogs"...and you ain't no friends of mine. That stupid, reckless decision to not allow Elvis singing "One Night" on TOTP will do more to damage Lisa's career than anything else imaginable.

It seems that Gary Hovey has serious psychological problems because he has to continually insult so many people in show business. It seems he gets his kicks out of saying "NO" to almost everyone who makes any small or big proposition to EPE. He is one major reason why EPE was $25 million in debt because every time he says no it means EPE lose potential $millions in revenue. To not allow Elvis to be seen on the BBC's TOTP singing "One Night" at such an historical moment for Elvis, his family, friends and fans worldwide will never be forgiven. I firmly believe that Gary Hovey is a suitable case for treatment and is in desperate need of counselling and should be relieved from his job at EPE immediately and why did not Lisa intervene to stop this madness?
