Lisa Marie -- I'm Preggers, Not Fat!

Just the other day, TMZ spotted Scientolostar Lisa Marie Presley, 40, out looking awfully big. And now she's confirmed exactly why.


On her MySpace blog, Presley announced that she's pregnant (this will be her third child, first with her fourth husband, musician Michael Lockwood) but she saves her real verbal fireworks to totally unload on the tabloid media, whom she calls "irresponsible," "disgusting," and "black souls." And that's just for starters:

After being the target all week of slanderous and degrading stories, horribly manipulated pictures and articles in the media, I have had to show my cards and announce under the gun and under vicious personal attack that I am in fact pregnant.

Once they got a glimpse of my expanding physique a few days ago, they have been like a pack of coyotes circling their prey whilst eerily howling with delight. Starting with a London publication and then New York and Chicago all writing false defamatory degrading stories about all of the dark possible reasons I could be putting on weight. The US tabloids have been calling all day wanting confirmation on all kinds of insane theories.

They couldn't wait to find out if my weight gain was because I was just overeating, in which case It would be open season and they can do the old following in her fathers sad and unfortunate demise story again or less interesting for them and probably much to their dismay, I could just be pregnant and therefore have a legitimate reason for weight gain at which point they should probably wipe the saliva off of their fangs and put them back in their mouths or they may expose the black little souls that they are.

Now that things are confirmed, hopefully they can stop all of the harassment and I can stop dodging the continuous bullets. It is unfortunate that I couldn't have announced something that is this much of a blessing and that has made us so incredibly happy under better circumstances.

How they have handled themselves with this has been nothing short of irresponsible and disgusting.

Pardon my seething contemptuous tone but ladies, You KNOW if you were pregnant and you felt you were expanding uncontrollably by the moment as a result and the worldwide media started badgering and harassing you for it, plastering you everywhere in an unflattering light, you would be mortified as well.

79. Whoa there JoJo! I never put disabled people in that category, you did...knew there would be some knuckle head who couldn't see why America has a huge problem with obesity. Congratulations, you just gave another person with a weight problem not to see it for what it is, unhealthy and potentially deadly. I should know, I lost a father who was overweight to esophogheal cancer @ 62 years old. He loved ice cream, candy and diet coke. Never knew he was sick, after looking back on his diet, we knew what killed him, regrets come daily. Try to see it for what it is....before you or someone you love dies from his/her weight problem.

80. Here's my take on it.... I can see her side of it, about being hounded by photogs, etc. However, if she wanted to announce her pregnancy in a sweet, nice way, (as a blessed, happy pregnancy), she easily could've done that if she HADN'T WAITED SO FRICKING LONG TO ANNOUNCE IT!!!!!! How can she not expect people to wonder with that much of a weight gain in a short amount of time??? She looks just about ready to deliver if you ask me. She easily could've done what she wanted by announcing it when she felt like it, but if she thinks waiting until her 9th month would work to announce it, she should think again. No wonder everyone was wondering about the weight gain.... can you blame us???? NO!!!!!!!!

81. In my medical and science field of study OVER IT, the facts state the facts. I've seen more people then your
one father...rest his soul.

You also do not read with clear understanding...I never condoned junk food eating, but sweets alone factually, are not
the culprit! Do the research yourself. I also stated that being overweight is dangerous, but you have to consider logically the whole picture.

And no, you did not mention disabled people, but you insinuated all overweight people...a broad, general statement.

I have also body bagged many healthy style living people more then you can imagine! They did not drink alcohol, eat improper foods on a regular basis, smoke, or recline from exercise. As a matter of fact, some in my own family, practiced healthier lifestyles then even myself, and they died from cancer and other diseases. It is called life, in our chemically, and technically advanced society today.

Well, I'm not going to spend all day with you or any other on this topic today. I don't have time...gotta run now...this little break is over.

82. I can't believe people are attacking her boyfriend's looks. Get a life people. He could be the most marvelous human being in the world, why would people be so hateful.

83. Oh my gosh-- the person who wrote the comment about how they thought it looked like Lisa Marie was out shopping with Barbra Streisand, nearly made me fall on the floor laughing. TOO FUNNY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'll admit he isn't the most handsome fella to me, but maybe he's super nice and treats her really well. And obviously Lisa Marie must think he's pretty hot!! Whatever floats your boat I guess :)

84. OMG! I thought that was a woman walking with her at first! UH, couldn't she do any better than THAT!?

88. That's her husband ewww looks like a old lady

89. I do not blame her for ranting on her site about this. Pregnant or not it really isn't anyone's business how heavy she becomes. However, it would be much easier to take her seriously if she weren't a cult member.

90. Oh-Boo Hoo!!! Someone pass me the tissues!! I bear her no ill will, I have also been pregnant and felt like a cow, but seriously, another rich celebrity crying about TOO much attention! GIVE ME A BREAK! They choose the lifestyle, besides, I can't believe shes being hounded THAT much, shes not exactly a high profile celebrity or anything.
