Title: This MIchael is Close

This Michael is pretty close! Look at his list of assignments.
So, on this and the other thread about height, I wonder how long "Michael Jackson"
has been an "institution"? :|
One can also be wondering if Liza Minnelli's statement meant more than what
we think at the time?

An excerpt from that article claims:

``Most people start that way,'' says Chugay. ``Somebody tells them they look a little bit like Ricky Martin and the wheels start turning.''

Chugay has also done a Michael Jackson, a Marilyn Monroe and an Elvis Presley. New clients include folks wanting to resemble Leonardo DiCaprio and Ricky Martin.

In addition to the $400 for a single day of work, you get the benefit of saying you worked for Madonna or Michael Jackson.

Well that is interesting...yeah, I know its just working as stand ins, but who knows? Thanks for posting the link!
