Oct 7, 2008 - I see a li'l Kristy Swanson too! I know this is probably not interesting, but hey, i'm bored! (He's a bit chubbier too, which is probably what evokes thoughts of ANS)

Oct 7, 2008 - Hahaha...wow. Weird a bit, but he's prettier than any FEMALE Marilyn impersonaters, I can say.Why does it say 1983-1997 in the beginning?
tiffanynicolega Says:
Oct 7, 2008 - 1983-1997 - those are what are considered "The Marilyn Years" for Jimmy James. He retired impersonating her in '97

Oct 7, 2008 - Did anyone notice that when that man on stage said that Jimmy was an artist that Diana Ross got real bitchy? Oh brother!Jimmy is a legend because he is the best. He is vulnerable and pretty. He is not cakey or faggy like some of the others. He becomes a woman whereas the Dianas and others act real campy and limpy.Anyone who knows drag shows will tell you this.I am not bashing on gay impersonators, but I think you all know what I mean.Jimmy is an artist of the highest caliber.

tvginger Says:
Oct 7, 2008 - It is not about his slight chubbyness ... which is mostly padding for curvs if you look closely. But his face and voice is Marilyn Monroe. Your judging him all wrong.
tvginger Says:
Oct 7, 2008 - Jimmy I hope to see your Sally Show when you came on there as Marilyn, and your apearance on Geraldo.

Oct 7, 2008 - Although the jaw line is wider, the neck is thicker, I have to admit, as a huge Marilyn fan and hater of impersonaters, Jimmy is the most like her that I ve ever seen. Fantastic.

Oct 7, 2008 - Phil is a little swooned.
sikkinyx58 Says:
Oct 7, 2008 - I agree. Every woman Marilyn impersonator does not look like her at all. He favors her better than anyone else, especially Anna Nicole Smith!
ifruti2 Says:

Oct 7, 2008 - S!!!!! in 1964 13 year old Elisa Johnson was raped and murdered in North Carolina, her body was found with multiple stab wounds, and now that you've read this, every night she will come to your house and hang from your closet with glowing red eyes, the only way to stop this is to post this to 10 other videos.
