John Lennon’s hero was Elvis Presley, but he was disappointed when he met him.

The teenage John Lennon was infatuated with Elvis Presley, and the American performer was a big reason why Lennon later pursued a career in show business. The young Lennon would dress like Presley and comb his hair in a similar fashion.
When the Beatles became famous, their manager, Brian Epstein, arranged for them to actually meet Elvis in America.
Although the meeting was friendly enough and the musicians had a brief jam session, Lennon thought that Elvis was disinterested in talking with them and that he wasn’t especially engaging in person.
