Woman claiming to be Elvis' daughter suing for $130m

A swedish woman claiming to be Elvis Presley's lovechild for the past 20 years has filed a law suit against the late icon's estate for defamation and infliction of emotional distress.

Lisa Johansen is asking for over $130m in damages.

The Swede, who published a book titled I, Lisa Marie: The True Story of Elvis Presley's Real Daughter in 1998, claims she took a DNA test last year and now hopes to prove she is The King's daughter.

Billboard.com reports Johansen took a trip to Graceland in August to mark the anniversary of Elvis' death and spoke with some of the estate's staff.

The Presleys have since ordered her to stay away, accusing Johansen of making 'malicious false claims' against them.
