Butler's related to Elvis. Distantly, but still related.
I always imagined Adam Lambert playing this role if a movie were to be made about Elvis.
At first, I didn't think I would get into this specifically because I couldn't see Butler as Elvis, but it turned out to be a very good movie.
Learning that Elvis actually did wear mascara because his eyelashes were blonde and couldn't be seen, so he wore the mascara to make the lashes visible, and really did dye his hair black, it all came together. He also really did wear eyeliner. It wasn't just done for the movies.

I was part of an Elvis discord group and they posted close up pics of Elvis in the 70s, and we talked about his blond eyelashes. I wish I could find those pics now to post here.
He also started dyeing his eyelashes black for the 68 Comeback Special onwards. He stopped later on when the dye got into his eyes worsening his glaucoma. I wonder if the dye contributed to it actually.
Ps. I found one: -

Bono too wears shades because of glaucoma
I'm not sure because I was prescribed eye drops to help me from getting it but I got it anyway
