\n Graceland is all shook up.<\/p>\n

Elvis Presley\u2019s estate was vandalized with \u201cBlack Lives Matter\u201d and \u201cDefund the Police\u201d graffiti overnight into Tuesday.<\/p>\n

The protest slogans were found spray-painted in black and orange on the stone wall surrounding the King\u2019s mansion, a signature Memphis landmark and major tourist draw, local news<\/a>paper The Commercial App<\/a>eal reported.<\/p>\n

\u201cAbolish ICE\u201d and \u201cF\u2013k Trump\u201d were also among the spray-painted phrases.<\/p>\n

The graffiti covered up many of the hundreds of tributes to the music icon handwritten by fans on the wall over the years.<\/p>\n

By mid-morning on Tuesday, workers with power-wash equipment were removing the slogans, according to the Appeal.<\/p>\n

A Graceland spokesman declined to comment on the vandalism.<\/p>\n

Another Memphis landmark, historic concert venue The Levitt Shell, was defaced with similar graffiti, including \u201cEat the Rich\u201d and \u201cDefund MPD [Memphis Police Department].\u201d<\/p>\n

The open-air amphitheater in Overton Park was where Elvis gave his first paid concert on July 30, 1954.<\/p>\n

The rock \u2018n roll legend lived at Graceland for 20 years, until his death on Aug. 16, 1977 at the age of 42.<\/p>\n

The estate \u2014 located on a stretch of Highway 51 South named \u201cElvis Presley Boulevard\u201d \u2014 was opened to the public in 1982 and attracts over half a million visitors annually.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
