Scientology saved me from drugs – Lisa Marie

Lisa Marie Presley, whose debut album To Whom It May Concern has just been released, claims Scientology saved her from dying like her father.

Elvis’s daughter joined the church when she was 18, after a five-year binge of drugs and alcohol, she tells Paper magazine.

“I was on a 72-hour bender,” she said. “Cocaine, sedatives, pot and drinking – all at the same time. I don’t know how I lived through it.

"I woke up one day with a bunch of people on the floor and the coke dealer was in the room and I said, ‘Everybody get the hell out! That’s it. I’m done.’

"I drove myself to the Church of Scientology and said, ‘Somebody help me right now’.”
