Elvis Presley died at the age of just 42 on August 16, 1977 after suffering a heart attack while reading on the toilet upstairs at Graceland.

The world was in shock at such an unexpected tragedy, yet it turns out a makeup artist could tell by his skin that he was destined for an untimely death.

Just six weeks before he perished, the final recorded footage of Elvis was captured during a meeting with a fan, which you can view below.

Express.co.uk spoke previously with that fan, who described just how unwell The King was looking.

After all, Elvis had grown overweight and become addicted to prescription drugs during the Seventies.

That fan is Todd Slaughter, the owner of The Official Elvis Presley Fan Club UK, who spoke of the makeup artist, who was also present, predicting the star’s death.

Meeting Elvis at Indianapolis airport during his final tour, Todd revealed: “He was laughing his tits off. But you try to remember what it was all about. He was saying something funny about Colonel Parker [Elvis’ manager], not offensive or anything like that.

“Of course, I did say, ‘When are you going to come [to tour the UK]?’ But of course, by that time you could tell Elvis wasn’t a well guy to say the least.”

Todd continued: “A lady producer from Danish telly was there and she said, ‘Have a close look at him. Our makeup woman says his skin is rather pallor and he looks like he’s got six months to live.’”And as it turned out it was six weeks. I was told this information by a very credible source.”

He added: “I think the timing of Elvis’ demise was quite awful really because the guy was only 42. You can’t blame it on anyone, or on the act. It’s the environment of being a star. Very few people go through it unscathed.”
