Well, It actually wasn't a hologram - Celine did one prerecorded session in the American Idol studio that was later mixed to show her with Elvis using simple green-screen technology. The Elvis video was from his 1968 Comeback TV special.
Then for the live show they had her come out with an Elvis look-alike, and also showed them periodically either from a distance or from behind etc so you wouldn’t be able to tell it wasn’t Elvis (ha)...
The hardest part was probably to keep the prerecorded version and live coverage in sync as they cut back and forth.
