Heartbreaking 911 call for star

Lisa Marie Presley’s housekeeper frantically tried to direct emergency responders to the singer’s mansion after finding her boss unresponsive, according to a 911 call.

Presley, 54, passed away after being rushed to West Hills Hospital and Medical Centre in California on Thursday, when her heart apparently stopped several times before she was declared dead.

“What’s the address of your emergency?” an operator asked the distraught housekeeper, who called 911 from Presley’s home in Calabasas, The New York Post reports.

The housekeeper for Elvis’ daughter struggled to get her words out and seemed frantic.

“Ma’am, is there someone else there with you right now?” the responder said, before asking if the worker could hand the phone to someone with her.

“Hi,” said a man, believed to be Presley’s ex-husband Danny Keough, upon taking the phone.

The operator said, “Sir, listen, paramedics [are] already on the way,” and asked if the ambulance needed to know anything to be able to get to the home.

“No, there’s a security gate in the neighbourhood, but they’ll just let them through,” he said.

A few seconds later, the man said he thinks the paramedics arrived.

Keough, who Lisa-Marie lived with, attempted to perform CPR until EMTs arrived.

The emergency responders revived Presley several times before she ultimately succumbed to the medical episode, Page Six reported.

Sources had previously told Page Sixthat the singer was pronounced brain dead after she was rushed to the hospital on Thursday, prompting doctors to put her into a medically induced coma.

However, with the news of her “critical” condition, the singer’s family decided to sign a DNR in case she suffered another cardiac arrest – which she did, according to TMZ.

She is survived by her mum Priscilla and three daughters: Riley, 33, and 14-year-old twins Finley and Harper.

She was the only child of Elvis, who also died of a heart condition in 1977 when he was just 42 years old.
