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.

106. Came onto this site by accident and boy I cannot believe how cruel you people can be, Of all the drugs, and out of wedlock pregnacies in the entertainment world, along with all the other vices we read about in this world, how can you be so cruel to Lisa Marie. At least she marries her childrens fathers, and I haven't heard about her having to go to rehab for any addictions. I think she is very pretty and so are her children. And who cares what her husband looks like, that doesn't mean a thing, maybe he is nice and treats her nice, which is what counts. You all sound like the "real deal" Californians alright, that looks are everything, even if you have to "buy them" and yes most people could have nice bodies if they have the money and the narcisstic personality to have all the surgeries like body lifts, liposuction, face lifts, fake boobs, nose jobs, and stick in a personal trainer or two......... And if some of you people with the sarcastic remarks aren't from California, then you should move there and be among the rest of the fake people.....who love to judge others ....

108. Lisa and hubby looked like they were wearing clothes from 1974.....I had to laugh at their "style"..

But she sure can push out some gorgeous children....

Wishing her a healthy pregnancy!

109. She reminds me of a spoiled little snotty rich brat with some of her comments I've read over the years.

She's famous, being in the public eye goes along with being famous. I don't feel a bit sorry for her with her nasty attitude. She could be like most of us are and have to work a REAL JOB for her living. Having to live pay check to pay check, working her butt off just to survive. Then she would have a reason to be snotty.

She might look like her daddy, but she lacks his compassion & kindness for others.

Some people just don't know how good they really have it.

110. I have a few things to say...#93 - please get your facts right - Lisa is 40, not mid-40's, and MANY women of her generation are choosing to have children at her age - and they are WANTED, PLANNED, HEALTHY, HAPPY, and WELL-CARED-FOR children. #99 - she's useless??? please! she's a legacy. sorry that you're not. #100 - keep eating your Lay's, maybe your fingers will be too greasy to type. #101 - please use proper English next time...I'm not sure I really understood your point. #104 - Clearly, you don't know her. Above and beyond all of that nonsense...

Lisa and Michael are a beautiful, loving couple and deserve to be happy and enjoy this moment. They are expecting and the world should be glad that Lisa is bringing another BEAUTIFUL child into this world, who will be loved.

If anyone thinks that Elvis wouldn't be proud of his little girl (and her children), they obviously don't know enough about the man who Elvis was and how much he loved his daughter.

111. she is not part of the spoiled, bratty, DUI, rehab-bound, celebu-spawn, loser Hollywood crowd that shows up on TMZ every day. all you jealous asses need to get over yourselves.

112. Its sad to see that people just assume things when they don't know the story.Imagine your whole life under a microscope on a daily basis and the things you do being the gossip story,the things you eat,the people you hang with,etc etc.I remember seeing Lisa Marie and her mum on Tv a while back opening up a housing complex the Pressley family paid for themselves for the less fortunate.How soon the good is forgotten and just gossip is printed.

114. I agree with Lisa Marie pregnancy is a blessing that people shouldn't have to announce to the world if they don't want to! A pregnancy and a baby is a sacred thing that some only want to share with their family. When you are pregnant you already feel like the whole world thinks you are just fat and you don't feel like yourself! With Lisa Marie in the public eye since she was a baby I think she deserves to be left alone esp to cherish this special time in her life.

116. Look she is a married woman she has been married to the man for 2 yrs. If they want to have a baby so what???? I dont see her daughter or son in the news for doing crazy things she seems to try to stay out of the spotlight and live her life. Congrats Lisa and Michael !!!

117. Shame on the news pack of hounds picking on her. She has to be a good person - she is private - not a bar hopping mess like the other girls. Good luck to her. She will have a beautiful baby.

118. And people wonder why so many women have eating disorders. She's a human being for God's sake ! It's NO ones business who she marries, what she does with her money, what she weighs, who she marries or how many children she has. People THINK they know famous people from what they read or see on TV....they DON'T ! Maybe it's easier to judge them rather than look at their own lives. Maybe it's time to remember what your mama told you...believe nothing you hear and only half of what you read...ya think ????
Who are any of you to say if her husband is cute or not ? Is he good to her and her children ? You don't know do you ? Pick up a mirror...Look over in that lounge chair at your ummmmmmm better half then start judging. Enough said.

119. Leave LIsa Marie alone. She has always had to defend herself and her father's memory. I wish he were still here to kick the crap out of all of you who portray someone to be something they are not. She is only like 5'3 and so sure she will show alot quicker than some other people would. Oh yeah-I guess that guys are taking all the pictures!!!! LIsa, you rock and has far as all the comments about her husband's looks-as long as she is happy and he is good to her, that is all that matters.

120. Good for her. I think the article she wrote was very well written. The press should be ashamed for writing such things. I wish her the best.
