Read my lips, I'm Elvis's grandson: The King (Jnr) takes mother Lisa Marie and granny Priscilla clubbing in London

The slicked-back hair, full lips and rock star swagger are all present and correct.

All he needs now is a pair of blue suede shoes.

This is Benjamin Presley Keough, the 17-year-old grandson of Elvis.

The pretender: Benjamin Presley Keough, 17 and the King Elvis, during his heyday in the late 1950s

Benjamin's resemblance to the The King was clear as he partied at an exclusive club in London.

The teenager, who is starting a singing career of his own, spent Tuesday night at Mahiki with his mother Lisa Marie, 41, and grandmother Priscilla, 63.

Benjamin looked every inch the aspiring rock star in white jeans and a black leather jacket.

He has already recorded much of his first album and is understood to have signed a £3.3million five-album deal with the record company Universal.

He insists his style is very different to that of his grandfather.

'The music will be nothing like Elvis, nothing like him at all,' he said in a recent interview.

Benjamin is currently taking a break from making the album, which he hopes to release next year.

'He's a typical 17-year-old,' his spokesman said. 'He doesn't get up before midday and then grunts at you.'

Benjamin is Lisa Marie's son with her first husband Danny Keough, a musician whom she married in the late 1980s. The couple also had a daughter, Danielle, but split up after six years.

Benjamin's grandmother Priscilla married Elvis in 1967 but they divorced six years later.

Benjamin, 17, seemed to take the whole circus of attention in his stride, which will perhaps come in handy soon.

His mother, 41, who married his father, Danny Keough, a musician, when she was 20 and divorced him in 1994, is also trying to jump start her solo career.

Lisa Marie is now married to fourth husband, Michael Lockwood, a guitarist and music producer, has enlisted the help of Sheffield musician Richard Hawley to relaunch her music career.

She made a surprise appearance on stage during Hawley's concert at the 02 Shepherd's Bush Empire in London earlier this month.

The two have embarked on a songwriting partnership in which Lisa Marie writes the lyrics and Hawley the music.

They performed their first song Weary - a lilting rock ballad with Lisa Marie on vocals and Hawley on guitar.
