It's creeping toward the official beginning of summer, which means barbecue, grass-stained pants and, of course, Elvis. This August marks the 33rd anniversary of the King's death, and Elvis tribute artists -- most bristle at the word "impersonator" -- are gearing up around the world for the granddaddy of Elvis events: King week in Memphis, where pelvis-swiveling, jumpsuited wannabes all compete for the crown of the Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist.  Elvis look-alikes come in all ages, though they tend to be straight, white and male.  But not always, at least in the last few years, thanks to Jacqueline Feilich.  A Sydney gemologist and suburban mother turned full-time Elvis tribute artist, Feilich has been shaking up the Elvis circuit with her skin-tight pink jumpsuit and decidedly female take on the King's music.  Feilich is one of a very few female Elvises worldwide, and perhaps the only one who takes it seriously: Her acts aren't campy, nor do they go for a knowing, ironic vibe like Elvis Herselvis.
