Lots of People With Lots of Free Time

It's understandable that a man as multi-faceted and charismatic as The King would be so many things to so many people. And consequently, in the Elvis universe it seems that so many people— and so many things— want to be The King. To the uninitiated outsider, Elvis impersonators are people whom we can laugh at, not with. VIVA ELVIS is slowly starting to understand that the compulsion to impersonate Elvis really stems from the desire to keep Elvis alive; it's how fans achieve Oneness with Elvis (and Elvisness with The One).


Elvis Impersonators

Reviewer: J. Lowell

The Flying ELVI is a a 10-man skydiving team whose members dress up in white Elvis jumpsuits and Elvis hairpieces. Perhaps one of the more well-known Elvis impersonation groups.

Elvis impersonation is "the sincerest form of love" for The King and what he represents, according to devoted Elvis impersonator photographer Patty Carroll, who displays her photos at Elvis Impersonators. You'll really enjoy them (if the animated .gif files don't get to you first).

Patty Carroll's website is part of the Elvis Impersonator Ring, one of many cyber-organizations that keeps alive the memory of Elvis.

You'll have to see to believe it: check out the website of the Fresno Christmas-Caroling Elvi, central California's claim to Elvis fame.

The Professional Costumer's Elvis Impersonator Connection: for all your Elvis-impersonator needs. The selection of jumpsuits is absolutely awesome!

There are probably as many variants of Elvis impersonators as there are fans in the Elvis universe. An example of this diversity is the "Elvis with a Latin flair" known as El Vez (The Mexican Elvis), whose world-famous home is "Graciasland".

Hey, it's the `90's. So why shouldn't women also impersonate Elvis? Meet Joan Minnery, a gal who has imitated The King and even won several awards.

Yikes! Dead Elvis lives. The home page of this impersonator states "Any resemblance between Dead Elvis and a rock & roll singer (living or dead) indicates serious need for an eye exam." Yeah, whatever. This kind of Elvisology is why Dave now sleeps with the hall light on. If you can stop shuddering long enough, check out the "Dead Elvis Sightings" page.

In his heyday, Elvis was the cat's meow. Well, this feline Elvis impersonator certainly meows.

Last, and probably not least, there's the winged wonder Friz-Elvis, the budgie that impersonates Elvis.
