Trivia

Due to his popularity, rumours about his personality flourish. The most widespread tells that he has a fetish for human feces, hence his soubriquet "Bajs-Elvis" (roughly translated as "Turd Elvis"). This rumour is still to be substantiated and circulate mostly at jest or as an urban legend.
