Fans flocked to social media following Austin Butler’s acceptance speech for his Golden Globe award for playing Elvis. They noticed that he hasn’t let go of being The King of Rock ‘n Roll. One user wrote, “Austin Butler needs to lose the Elvis voice we get it already.” Meanwhile, another took it a step further and wrote, “When is congress going to hold a hearing on Austin Butler’s voice.” Fans were really not holding back with their criticism of Butler’s choice of voice following the film either.

Some users are posting clips of Butler’s work pre-“Elvis,” to show how much his speaking voice has seemingly changed since taking the role.
