March 28th in Elvis History

It's March 28th, and on this day in 1975, Barbra Streisand attended Elvis's midnight show at the Las Vegas Hilton. After the performance, she met with him backstage and offered him a co-starring role in her upcoming remake of *A Star Is Born*. Elvis expressed great enthusiasm for the project, seeing it as an exciting opportunity. However, Colonel Tom Parker, ever the cautious manager, quickly dampened Elvis's excitement. Concerns over publishing rights, payments, and the potential impact of Jon Peters—an inexperienced director—on Elvis's image led Parker to cast doubt on the idea in the following days.
