Carol Connors was at the market buying a bottle of milk when a “creepy guy” approached her.
“He says, ‘Aren’t you the girl who sang ‘To Know Him is to Love Him?’” the singer/songwriter recalled to Fox News Digital, referring to her 1958 hit.
“I went, ‘Yeah,’” she said. “He said, ‘Elvis Presley would love to meet you.’ And I went, ‘Right, sure, yeah, of course.’ He said, ‘No I mean it. He loves your voice.’”
The two-time Oscar-nominated star has written a new memoir, “Elvis, Rocky & Me,” which details her decades-long career, and the many adventures that came with it. The entertainer is also the subject of an upcoming documentary about her life.
The 83-year-old said that when she gave the mysterious man her phone number, she thought nothing of it – until he called two weeks later.
“He said, ‘I worked it out,’” said Connors. “’You’ve got to come to the house. Elvis would love to meet you.’ I went, ‘OK.’
