By Staff
Washington
(ANI):
Actress
Jaime
Pressly
believes
that
she
distantly
related
to
legendary
singer
Elvis
Presley,
thanks
to
a
family
legend
passed
down
by
her
grandfather.
Though
the
My
Name
Is
Earl
star
can't
prove
a
link,
she
was
convinced
when
she
compared
pictures
of
her
relatives
and
the
King.
"When
I
was
a
little
kid
there
was
a
lot
of
teasing
going
on
about
me
being
related
to
Elvis," Contactmusic
quoted
her,
as
saying.
"I
went
to
my
granddad
and
asked
him
(about
it),
and
he
said
that
years
ago
there
was
a
family
feud
between
the
Presleys
and
half
the
family
changed
the
spelling
(of
their
name).
"I
asked
my
Uncle
Tommy
about
it,
and
he
went
and
got
a
picture
of
Elvis's
dad
and
my
grandfather
and
laid
them
down
side
by
side
and
they
looked
like
brothers.
"I've
never
seen
anything
look
so
close
in
my
life.
Same
sideways
smile,
same
teeth,
same
eyes,"
she
added.
