Perhaps American movie star Johnny Tyrone was filming a scene for his new movie, hence the makeup.

Here are the eyebrows closer. You can tell that his eyebrows are toned down with make up and a pencil has been used. Poor Elvis.

ok, thats why it looks strange.....cause they did not just enhanced his already existing eyebrows with an eyeliner like in most promoshots of the 60s...they did put make up over over the original ones and THan used an eyeliner...thats why it looks so strange

Looks like whomever was wielding the eyebrow pencil, or whatever they used, slipped - I mean, their hand slipped, and kept going. That's bad make-up technique.

i just dont see the reason why they did hide his original eyebrows with make up and than pencil over with a stick...
why not just leave his normal eyebrows and enhance them with the pencil?
this way it looks horrible artificial

I wonder if a professional make up person have done it.
