The 14 Juiciest Celeb Meltdowns

#5: Elvis Presley

Pre-Meltdown: The hip-gyrating star of silver-screen singalongs like Clambake and Blue Hawaii. He also liked his mama.

Low Point: Shortly after establishing himself again in Las Vegas in the late '60s, Elvis paid a visit to the White House (packing a handgun no less), where the notorious pill-popper inexplicably professed to President Nixon his hatred for the hippie drug culture. Democracy in action...

Entertainment Factor: As Elvis grew heavier and his outfits grew more outrageous, his public behavior grew more erratic. And yet, he continued to play sold-out shows to thousands of screaming fans.

Current Status: Well... he's dead. But his spirit isn't. Just look to Britney Spears' VMA appearance. She wasn't the first person to attempt a Vegas comeback by putting on more weight and wearing ill-fitting, sequined clothing.
