Dakota Striplin stands out on the music show “The Voice” by saying that he is the grandson of Dr. Elvis Presley, who was known as “The King of Rock and Roll.” He sings a new version of “Love Me Tender” to both the crowd and the judges on “The Voice.” Each note makes them think of his rumored ancestry.
Everyone in the room is mesmerized by Dakota as soon as he starts to play his guitar and sing with his angelic voice. Deeply moved, the judge quickly turned her chair around and put her hand on her chest. Someone else, unable to turn down the appeal of his show, says:
She quickly flips her chair to show that she agrees, saying, “I have to see what’s going on here.” At the end of the song, the judges are blown away by how well he can sing and play the instruments.
The judges want to know why he chose that song and how it came about. Dakota says that for a long time, Elvis Presley has been an influence to him. As he talks about his family history, he mentions that his grandma loved going to see Elvis perform. This leads to the joke that he might be related to the King, which makes the judges laugh as they talk about how much they look alike.
As Dakota’s story goes on, he uncovers the mysterious history of his family tree. Even though Dakota’s father doesn’t say anything, his grandmother, who has a strong link to Elvis’s legacy, is very important to the story. There’s more to Dakota’s claim than meets the eye because she saw Elvis perform in Hawaii and is very sad about his death.
The fact that DNA results were found that contradict his claimed biological father’s story makes people think that Dakota might be, but you should still look him up and come to your own conclusions.

Daughter Embarrassed by “Dirty” Coal Miner Father Breaks Down as He Speaks at Her Graduation
Sabrina, an 18-year-old girl, felt ashamed of her father, Pete, a coal miner. With her graduation party just two days away, she was determined to keep him from attending. The thought of his sooty face and coal-stained hands embarrassed her; she feared that her friends would mock her because of him.
When Pete came home with two gifts, a stunning dress and a suit for himself, Sabrina thanked him but quickly expressed her wish for him not to come to the ceremony. She believed that her friends came from prestigious backgrounds and didn’t want her father to detract from her special day. Hurt by her words, Pete silently respected her wishes, even though he was eager to celebrate her accomplishment.
On graduation day, Sabrina arranged for a friend to drive her, insisting again that Pete stay away. However, he couldn’t bear to miss such a monumental moment in her life. Sneaking into the event, he took a seat in the parents’ section, excitedly cheering for her.
When the time came for Sabrina to receive her diploma, Pete jumped up to film her, shouting words of pride. Sabrina was mortified to see him there and wished the ceremony would end. Suddenly, the host called Pete to the stage. Confused and anxious, Sabrina watched as her father took the microphone.
He began by showcasing a heartfelt slideshow filled with memories of their life together, including pictures from her childhood. As the images played, he expressed his love for her, recalling her mother and emphasizing how proud he was of Sabrina’s achievements.
Overcome with emotion, Sabrina began to cry. She ran to her father, apologizing for her harsh words. In that moment, she realized how much he had sacrificed for her and that his love had never wavered, despite her previous shame.
As they embraced, Pete revealed a long-kept secret: her mother was alive and living nearby. This revelation shocked Sabrina, who had always believed her mother was dead. Pete explained that he raised her alone after their divorce, as her mother had insisted he could choose to keep her or leave her behind.
Sabrina, feeling a mix of regret and gratitude, apologized for her earlier behavior. She recognized the depth of her father’s sacrifices and the love he had poured into raising her. From that day on, she no longer felt ashamed of Pete; instead, she was proud to be his daughter. The experience taught her to appreciate the sacrifices made by those who love her, understanding that true worth lies in character, not appearance.
