Footage of Lisa Marie Presley celebrating her late father’s birthday was posted just a few days before her passing.
Lisa Marie Presley, the only child of Elvis and Priscilla Presley, died Thursday at 54.
In the video shared by “Elvis” director Baz Luhrmann, Presley is seen with friends and family at a party for Elvis’ birthday, who was born January, 8, 1935 and died August 16, 1977 at 42.
“It was so great to share ELVIS’ birthday with Lisa Marie Presley, Riley (Keough), friends, family and all those that, in the spirit of ELVIS went out to the theatres,” Luhrmann, 60, captioned the video. “It was indeed a happy birthday and celebration of a legacy!
The clip shows highlights from a huge extravagant party, and Lisa Marie is seen giving a speech and smiling.
Other footage included a giant “Elvis”-themed cake as well as an abundance of Elvis decor.
Luhrmann got to know the singer-songwriter while he was directing the “Elvis” biopic.
