Priscilla Presley wins praise from dance judges for her feline floor show

Updated 07:27am on 27 Mar 2008


Priscilla Presley has been attracting catty comments for her increasingly feline features that perhaps betray a flirtation with cosmetic surgery.

But her dance routine on show Dancing With The Stars saw her make fun of her much-criticised image, with a raunchy routine which saw her crawl across the floor just like a slinky big cat.

The ex-wife of Elvis crawled along the dance floor in a leopard print dress last night as she danced the mambo with professional dance partner Louis van Amstel.

Feline good: Priscilla Presley adopted a feline-style crawl to wow judges during her performance on US dance show Dancing With The Stars last night

And as well as being a crowd-pleaser, the strange performance from the 62-year-old star actually impressed the judges.

Carrie Ann Inaba said: "You are so glamorous and sexy. You have this special alluring quality that draws you right into the dance.

Bruno Tonioli added: "Go for that sexuality!" Presley is the oldest female contestant ever to have appeared on the U.S. show.

A point which co-presenter Samantha Harris pointed out calling her the most 'mature' contestant on the show. Ouch!.

Priscilla was supported by her pregnant daughter Lisa Marie Presley, who was in the audience to cheer on her mother.

Meanwhile, Priscilla has been named as one of the victims of a horrific plastic surgery scam perpetrated on high-profile Hollywood stars.

An unlicensed doctor claiming to have a new 'miracle drug' reportedly injected the once glamorous ex-wife of Elvis with industrial low-grade silicone said to be similar to that used by mechanics to grease car parts.

Argentinian born Daniel Serrano, was unlicensed in the U.S. when he performed the cosmetic procedure in 2003.

Serrano is also believed to have performed procedures on Lionel Richie's ex wife Diane, and U.S. talk show host Larry King's wife Shawn.

Priscilla is reportedly undergoing further treatment to correct the injections given by Serrano.

Serrano, who went by the name of Dr Daniel, charged thousands of dollars to inject his 'anti-ageing solutions' after becoming friends with a group of ageing Hollywood stars.

Authorities were called in to investigate Serrano after complaints that the injections caused lumps, paralysis and holes in the faces of some of the women and some men he injected.

He was sentenced to 18 months in prison in 2005 on charges related to the illegal injections.

Priscilla is very beautiful, and she seem to be a nice person. But like most stars I think she has overdone in with the surgery. I am a big fan of all the Presleys. I haven't seen much of the dancing as I m in Australia, but she would be good as she has had some dance lessons in the past. I hope she does well in the competition and that she's having fun.

Priscilla Presley was/and is beautiful, glamorous, gorgeous, in my opinion. Mostly she has my respect. Her beautiful eyes, her demeanour
are a plus. I am a fan of the Presleys to a fault....and now a good dancer!

Priscilla is beautiful and very professional and stands out in the crowd with perfection and sexual beauty. She strives to do her very best in everything she does. I give her 100% credit! Keep up the great dancing Priscilla.

she looked unbelievably great in her previous pictures with daughter Lisa Marie! With little make-up she really looked younger than her daughter! I couldn't believe she was 62. Although she looks relatively older in these pictures because of heavy make-up, she still looks gorgeous. I can't see any trace of bad plastic surgery!

What's wrong with her face? She looks scary, a bit like a wax work.
