Being a Presley helped my career: Riley Keough

Actor Riley Keough said being Elvis Presley's grandchild has helped her career immensely.

Keough, 28, said she is extremely lucky to come from a well-known family because it helped her immediately land an agent in Hollywood, reported Contactmusic.

"It has been a huge help. I'm very privileged. Like the normal story of moving to LA and it takes you three years to find an agent? I got one in a week," she said.

Riley decided not to follow her parents Lisa Marie Presley and Danny Keough or even grandfather into the music industry and was inspired by Nicole Kidman to become an actor.
