Priscilla Presley wins round in elder abuse lawsuit against old business associates
Priscilla Presley has won the first round in an elder abuse lawsuit she filed against her old business associates.On Thursday (April 3), a Los Angeles County judge sided with the former wife of Elvis Presley and ruled that California was the best venue to hear the lawsuit, which claims her ex-associates had conned her out of over $1million.The complaint, filed last July, accused Florida-based memorabilia auctioneer Brigitte Kruse as well as Kevin Fialko, Vahe Sislyan and Lynn Walker Wright of crookedly convincing her to give them power over her and then abusing that control in efforts to steal her money.The case will now proceed with its next hearing in a few weeks.Per Rolling Stone, Judge Mark H. Epstein dismissed the argument by Kruse, Kruse’s husband, and Fialko, who said that Presley’s elder abuse claims against them should be placed on hold while they pursue a separate breach of contract lawsuit against her in Florida.The defendants argued that fighting a lawsuit in California while simultaneously pursuing their previously filed claims against Presley in Florida would be “extraordinarily inconvenient.”Epstein said he considered the argument, “yet another in what seems to be a never-ending series of motions … to move this case out of California and into Florida.” He also rebuffed the claim that Presley signed contracts that agreed to litigate disputes in Florida.“This is not really a contract-based case at its heart; it is a fraud case,” Epstein wrote in his ruling.

Morrissey begins legal action against online troll for “decades-long” defamation and “harmful global narrative”
Morrissey has begun legal action against an alleged online troll, a response attributed to a “decades-long” defamation campaign targeted at him.Music Business Worldwide obtained a cease-and-desist letter dated March 31, 2025, as reported yesterday (April 3), and it reveals Morrissey has hired law firm Levy & McRae to take action against an individual based in UK, who is accused of posting “distressing, harmful and libellous” content about the artist over multiple social media accounts.The letter, addressed to the individual, accuses them of publishing “an enormous amount of material about our client on an almost daily basis and, in turn, multiple times per day”. Additionally, the individual allegedly “left and/or posted written notes at and to” Morrissey’s home – these actions are claimed to have been captured on CCTV.The firm clarified that the matter has already been reported to the police.“The narrative of your posts almost exclusively relates to ‘far right’ politics, and in particular, those politics which are the antithesis of our client and what he has always stood for and represented,” the letter read, describing Morrissey as “a pacifist, apolitical” person who has “never joined a political party or voted”.The letter also accused the alleged perpetrator of extending the accusations of far-right sympathies towards Morrissey’s family members.

The Who’s Roger Daltrey says “we’re losing the essence of the heartbeat” of music through technology
Roger Daltrey has said the “essence” of music is being lost due to the increasing use of technology.During a launch event for the new book Words Of Love – which celebrates the life of Buddy Holly – the frontman of The Who shared his thoughts on the current state of the industry.Daltrey, who participated in the Q&A alongside Yungblud and The Rolling Stones‘ Ronnie Wood (who created the Words Of Love cover art), expressed his concerns over the growing reliance on tech, such as AI, in creating music.“We were throwing shit at the wall and some of it stuck,” the legendary musician explained (via The Standard). “There’s something about the technology… I feel personally, we’re losing the essence of the heartbeat.“Maybe it’s because I’m older, but there’s not much new music.”Yungblud commented: “I think rock music has been so convoluted because we got to be forced and twisted for a mainstream audience to turn the guitar down.“Modern music’s been in a strange place, but it’s exciting because it’s really, I feel it’s very democratic again.”He went on: “For the past four years a lot of majors [labels] have been able to control what we’ve been placed in front of us, but we know apps like TikTok, Instagram and everything like that… I really find that people can provide authenticity again directly.“If you have a story to tell, you can tell it and tell it to the world.
