Preacher denies he’s Elvis Presley, but fans hear his voice and insist he is the King

Elvis Presley, the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll gave the world some of the best hits, like Jailhouse Rock, In The Ghetto, Hound Dog and Love Me Tender, which are incredibly popular until this day and will likely be listened to and enjoyed by many future generations.

Despite his passing in 1977, Presley is still considered an icon and a legend. His charm, charisma, and incredible talent stole the hearts of many and he made fans in each and every country in this world.

Following his passing, his fans refused to believe he was gone. Conspiracy theories started emerging, many of which claimed the singer was still alive.

One of those theories said Presley was hiding from the mafia, then toured California’s Legoland, tended to the grounds of Graceland and is now living under the guise of a humble preacher in Arkansas.

That humble preacher goes by the name Bob Joyce and denies to be the late king, but fans demand he gives an explanation about “his fake death.”

The silver-haired preacher who does resemble Presley and sings as beautifully as him, says it’s all just a coincidence.

The fuss about Joyce started when a video of him performing Presley’s 1967 hit How Great Thou Art.

“This is truly Elvis. No one else could sing this favorite hymn of mine like Elvis,” someone commented under Joyce’s video. “His voice will never change. We love you and hope you tell us one day the story of your life. I know who he is and so does everyone else,” another added.

Joyce said that although he’s flattered by the comments, he’s not the late musician who would be 89 had he still been alive, and Joyce is 20 years younger.

“Most of these folks know I am not Elvis but to them it doesn’t matter. They are only so grateful that God is blessing them and reviewing their lives,” the preacher said. “Perhaps God is using Elvis’ voice to minister to broken hearts and broken lives…If Elvis were alive, I would say to him, my friend and brother, we are of kindred spirits.”

Samantha Drummond Dunn of Alabama posted about Joyce on her social media, writing, “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.”

Joyce’s website urges fans not to believe in this conspiracy theory.
