ARTESIA, NM – Weekly World News exclusive: Michael Jackson has been spotted in a diner with Elvis!
At roughly 3am last night patrons at a diner outside Artesia, New Mexico, saw what was undeniably Michael Jackson dining with Elvis Presley. The two arrived just before 3 at The Sunshine Diner on 285.
Wait staff say that Elvis arrived first, quietly taking a booth near the window. Minutes later Michael Jackson entered the sleepy diner, strutting to the booth where Elvis was seated. Elvis could be seen rolling his eyes even behind his massive sunglasses.
The two quietly dined for just under an hour, attracting minimal attention from the other patrons. They ordered the pancake special (cherry) and an egg white omelet respectively. Jackson would pull his hat down over his face whenever anyone passed by, only attracting more attention, until a clearly annoyed Elvis made him stop.
The two appeared to be very happy to see each other and spoke pleasantly for the majority of their time in the small town diner. After a slice of sweet potato pie and a fruit cup the two began collecting their things, leaving a tip of 20%. A faithful Weekly World News reader sent in this photo, taken as they were paying at the counter.
When they left, a brief good-bye was seen by a waitress named Estelle Roche. After a quick hug Elvis got into a ’75 Cadillac that only started after three tries. Once he had pulled out Michael Jackson pointed his hand into the sky, and in a flash of light he disappeared. A shooting star crossed the early morning sky heading north-west.
The photo and eyewitness accounts only further fuel the theory that Jackson staged his own death. Weekly World News will continue to investigate.

Paying at the counter? It looks more like Elvis is rolling a joint at the counter! No wonder Michael looks like he’s laughing!

Seriously, fire your Photoshop Artist.

this website is full of shit ….the photo is a photo of michael jackson when he was around 46- 50…and elvis has been dead for around 20 years….so it means this photo was taken when elvis was dead and micheal jackson was busy molesting kids round the world…what a laugh..this is as true as megan fox being a guy
July 1st, 2009 at 9:44 pm
Hehe Jeez I love this site and the Weekly World News. You've been making me smile and giving me an escape from the mundane for more years than I care to remember. Keep the stories coming. I can't get enough.
July 2nd, 2009 at 11:53 am
How desperate you are… to grab some attention…..
July 2nd, 2009 at 12:27 pm
I think part of the brilliance of the photo is that it is so clearly doctored …

Totally Fred!! It's just a bathroom rag mag turned electronic…don't know why some people have no sense of humor…they don't understand that this is sort of a 'live' MAD magazine – Don't know if they even ever watched MAD but it really does have the same kind of story lines designed to make us forget the ugliness of the economy, being modern day slaves to our 2 jobs that pay less and less every day, don't give us benefits, etc…it's better to laugh and look at the bright side, whoop it up while we can, life ain't gettin' any longer and doesn't look to get any better than it is right now I reckon, so we should all party on and if that includes Elvis and MJ, so be it ha ha.
July 2nd, 2009 at 1:32 pm
Still driving that '75 caddy, huh Elvis? Though it is hard to believe he'd be driving a Prius now that I think about it.
July 2nd, 2009 at 1:33 pm
HAHAH Realy guy???? Clearly this is photo shop…Has getting stories become that difficult that you have to make things up to this degree? Wow people really are low…
July 2nd, 2009 at 4:17 pm
hey TjH, are you really that stupid? Of course it's not real. That's the friggin point! This mag/website is all about escapism and satire. It's supposed to give us something to smile about and lighten up our day, NOT be taken seriously. Or don't you recognise satire when you see it? Do you still think pro wrestling is real?
July 2nd, 2009 at 5:17 pm
As for Jalissa, read my comment to TjH. It applies to you too, darlin
July 2nd, 2009 at 9:04 pm
PHOTOSHOP
AND PLZ STOP WITH ABSURDE THEORIES
July 3rd, 2009 at 2:17 am
What is wrong with you people? This stuff IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY! Of COURSE it's not real. Of COURSE it's Photoshop. Of COURSE the stories are "absurd" (learn to spell, marcella). That's the FUN of reading them. Do you people not have a sense of humor? Or have you all become such a nation of mindless media controlled clone-sheep that you are incapable of recognising FUN anymore? Quit over-analyzing everything and just enjoy something FUNNY for the pure ENTERTAINMENT of it for once in your arid, superficial little lives!
July 3rd, 2009 at 2:24 am
THIS IS OBVIOUSLY MADE ON PURPOSE, ASSHOLES.
July 3rd, 2009 at 2:31 am
Um, do you not realize that this is all made-up horseshit, aimed at gullible blokes like you? Don't take yourself so seriously.
July 3rd, 2009 at 2:38 am
it's a joke, the whole website is satire
July 3rd, 2009 at 11:35 am
Jalissa and TJH have got to be two of the dumbest human beings on earth.
July 4th, 2009 at 10:53 am
i know this is a joke/hoax magazine but get a better photoshop artist
July 4th, 2009 at 2:42 pm
your comment is full of shit
nobody can be a deepidiot like this
so you or your comment couldnt be real
July 4th, 2009 at 3:13 pm
Elvis is very much alive. He visits my town every September. Stays at the same hotel for three nights and heads off on a motorcycle. Jacko's death is a hoax he designed to get him out of the limelight and to enable hime to live his life in peace, free from the media. John Lennons death was another master hoax. All of these guys are hanging out together now in an undercover world.
July 4th, 2009 at 6:21 pm
hey, it's better than in the old days of the WWN newspaper when they would actually cut photos apart with scissors and paste them back together, or when the "actual unretouched photos" were SOOOOO obviously pen and ink drawings. I've loved the Weekly World News for quite a few years now, and they just keep getting better!
July 5th, 2009 at 5:15 am
The real headline here should read:
" Satire in America makes Endangered Species List."
July 5th, 2009 at 6:14 pm
Idiots. I knew this garbage would start.
July 5th, 2009 at 10:56 pm
This is the kind of story that makes me love the Weekly World News. God Bless you all. I thought it was poignantly hillarious.
July 6th, 2009 at 2:29 am
It is true. I saw it. I swear it is true.
July 7th, 2009 at 9:20 pm
OH my God This is really a whole lot of bullshit.
The guys are dead so show some respect and leave them alone.
Now who's the wacko here?
July 8th, 2009 at 10:22 am
who are we to judge! why dont the people leave Mike alone, the King is dead. may his soul rest in peace
July 8th, 2009 at 4:14 pm
Sooo truee!!! Fire your Photoshop artist! So fake! Hire me, i can do better!
July 8th, 2009 at 9:51 pm
Why? This is not a free site?! It can be censured?!!!
July 8th, 2009 at 9:59 pm
It seems that Elvis is happy with his "idea of the death", Looking at his fingers by counting how much he had cheaten of people, while Michael, very cool said to Elvis: "I didn't be tired so much, I had your example ready to play…"…LOL
July 9th, 2009 at 9:49 pm
OK. Except for the VERY few who seem to get it, you're all morons who wouldn't know satire if it bled to death on your front lawn. You should know that any magazine that features stories about Bat Boy and Manigator ( I love them btw) isn't going to print REAL stories about any celebrity. If you're that thin skinned and such easily offended wimps, then go read People or The Star to get your watered down fluff fix. Leave the WWN to those of us who understand humor and don't go crying WAAH WAAH about everything that doesn't fit into our safe, little shallow and boring view of life and the world. If you're that stupid then I wash my hands of the lot of you.
July 9th, 2009 at 9:53 pm
Hey Diana, how about quit being so high and mighty, get down off your high horse and grow a sense of humor.
July 10th, 2009 at 5:41 pm
This is so pathetic and disrespectful. Why don't you just let Michael and Elvis rest in peace? They are probably in Heaven right now laughing at you guys for being such losers. Let them rest in peace!
July 10th, 2009 at 11:31 pm
fuck u
July 10th, 2009 at 11:34 pm
what the hell
July 11th, 2009 at 9:02 pm
Any amoebas defending either MJ or Elvis on this site really need to reassess their lives.
July 13th, 2009 at 6:50 am
HAHAHAH nots dead of course its so Fking obvious all the news and the mass media info said it no literally but u can tell its kind a subliminal news or something and people cant leave him alone because they are so Fking ignorant and they cant get a life of their own
July 14th, 2009 at 8:00 am
Michael Jackson was a child molesting mutant and Elvis was a drug-addled violence freak. I don't know where they are now, but I seriously doubt it's Heaven.
July 14th, 2009 at 8:02 am
Are you on speed, or meth, or have you just never heard of punctuation? USE A PERIOD ONCE IN A WHILE, MORON!
July 14th, 2009 at 5:27 pm

August 2nd, 2009 at 3:20 am
Neither Elvis or Michael would have left the children they idolized unless they had no choice in the matter because of death. I ts a shame they died to early, but they left usm a piece of themselves in their music, and we should be greatful. RIP Elvis and Michael
August 3rd, 2009 at 3:03 am

They were also seen together a few miles down the road eating peanut butter and banana sandwiches with a pound or so of bacon in a secluded bungalow by dedicated groupies who followed Elvis home.
Looking over the hedge and through the open window they saw the scuffle which broke out after Elvis had expended all of his ammunition into the Tv because a Jerry Lee Lewis biography came on to CMT.
Michael, oblivious to all the gunfire, had been moon walking all around the room wearing one glove while screaching “just beat it”, which, according to the argument that broke out, reminded Elvis that Michael had been tapping his daughter. Leaping into a Tae Kwon Do horse stance, Elvis proceeded to strike Michael with combination jump right leg spinning back kick / spinning left leg roundhouse kick one two to the face.
However, this was the fat Elvis and he got tangled up in his cape and fell to the floor clutching his knee and yelling for Red.
Michael got his bottle of roofies and fed some to Elvis.
Cackling “Tee hee”, Michael was last seen picking up a Tickle Me Elmo beddie – bye story book just before he closed the drapes and locked the door.
September 12th, 2009 at 5:46 am
Lol that is the worst try at photoshoping a picture I have EVER seen. Give it up already…
September 18th, 2009 at 12:14 am
Is John Lennon mad at Michael about the Beatles catalog too? Is Elvis mad that Michael divorced his daughter. These three hanging out togeather may not be good, not good at all.
October 7th, 2009 at 9:55 pm
when you guys come out with this kind of bs you put the credibility of your whole mag at risk…cut the crap, Estelle Roche NEVER worked the night shift.
October 15th, 2009 at 10:04 pm
I knew Michael was still alive. He was at my local swap meet about two weeks ago. Before I could say any thing to him he ran away into the crowd. Michael come back ! the world still needs you !
November 11th, 2009 at 4:00 am
all i can say is hee heee elvis and MJ has left the building!!!
December 1st, 2009 at 1:20 am
Bologna!!!!!!!!!!
December 6th, 2009 at 5:29 am
I blieve Michael is still alive, but this photo is clearly a Photoshop creation… This is not our beloved Michael these days, he looks different than in this picture.
And please, stop calling Michael a Jack*, he is Jackson.
December 7th, 2009 at 7:54 am
I know this… the photo has been EDITED. Elvis Presley dead 20 years ago and Michael Jackson is dead 7 months ago. But how Michael escaped from his funeral if he's still alive? Thats not true. And Elvis hand look young, his hand must be old. OPEN YOURE EYES WORLD!! DONT YA SEE THAT MICHAEL AND ELVIS PICTURE LIKE BEEN EDITED???!! AND IF THEY DONT WANNA BE SPOTTED, THEY MUST BE GENIUS TO NOT WEAR THEIR LOCAL CLOTHES!!! Look at Michael, he's wearing his local clothes that he always used and Elvis clothes is like he's going on his own CONCERT!. His hair is ssooo unique, its 20 years ago and his hair should be long and longer… if he cut his hair, the hairdresser must be dead seen him alive though. hahaha… The Editor is not BRILLIANT..
December 31st, 2009 at 8:48 am
Hey moonrunner, for some of us MJ is really important and honestly this is not funny or entertaining. It's a whole bunch of bullcrap so if you people that think this is funny are stupid enough to laugh about it and unsensitive enough to have fun with it guess what???
go to HELL……..
