Boy who’d be king

He’s a hunka hunka burning love chipped off the old block.

Elvis Presley’s 17-year-old grandson has been offered a $5 million deal by Universal Records to pump out five albums, and he’s already hard at work recording songs.

But the teen — who was born 15 years after the King died — says he has no plans to channel his famed grandfather’s rockabilly song stylings.

“The music will be nothing like Elvis, nothing like him at all,” Ben Presley told London’s Telegraph newspaper.

If it is even remotely as good as the music recorded by his superstar grandfather — who has sold an estimated 1 billion albums around the world — he should be fine.

Presley is currently taking a break from recording his album.

He hopes to have it out next year.

If there is one thing Ben has in common with his granddad it is that he looks startlingly like the handsome-yet-jowly rock ‘n’ roll legend.

But that’s not surprising, since he is Lisa Marie Presley’s son with her first husband, Danny Keough, a musician she wed when she was 20.

While Lisa Marie, now 41, has lived a life in the limelight, young Ben has tried to remain more down to earth.

“He’s a typical 17-year-old,” said his spokesman.

“He doesn’t get up before midday and then grunts at you.”

His mother has long been very protective of her children. The teen was born in Los Angeles, where he was home schooled by his father.

Lisa Marie — Elvis’ only child with wife Priscilla — had two children with Keough during their six-year marriage, Benjamin and Danielle Riley, a 20-year-old model.

The princess of rock has since remarried three times, including a bizarre stint with the late King of Pop Michael Jackson, whom she wed 20 days after the ink was dry on her divorce from Keough.

She later was briefly married to actor Nicolas Cage and is currently married to her fourth husband, Michael Lockwood, who is also a musician.

They have twin 1-year-old daughters, Finley and Harper.

Benjamin Presley served as a groomsman in his mother’s wedding to Lockwood.
