Fantastic!

He was the best part of the wedding experience! I felt like I was seeing a ghost of the real MJ!!!!! We hired Ed for a fun way to entertain our wedding guests because of covid dancing together isn’t really an option. This was an amazing alternative for our guests! Ed was very entertaining and his moves were on point! Well worth it! Highly recommend him to everyone hosting a party!

The Greatest! A Night to Remember Forever!

Ed Hollis performed as Michael Jackson at my wedding reception. His attire, his moves along with the music made my reception a huge success. The children thought it was really Michael Jackson. People are still talking about it today! Thank you for making my wedding celebration one to always remember.

OMG.. Amazing MJ energy!

We hired Ed Hollis after researching MJ impersonators and had no idea of the treat we were in for. My husband’s military and teaching retirement celebration was an event to remember and one for the books. When Ed Hollis came on, our guests of all ages went crazy. His energy, looks and demeanor gave each of them the experience as if Michael Jackson was actually there. It was no doubt in my mind that we had made the right choice when we booked him. I look forward to having him perform for a future event. Thank you Ed for the magic and talent you possess!

Ed Hollis is spectacular as you watch him embody the great spirit of Michael Jackson through the music and dance moves that brings back old memories of good times of Michael Jackson that we all grew up loving to see and hear...

THE BEST I'VE EVER SEEN!!!!!

Our company booked Ed Hollis as the entertainment for our 12th annual Hollywood Awards Gala. We had researched dozens of Michael Jackson impersonators and when we saw his videos we knew we had to book him! He made the booking process very easy and he put on the show of a lifetime! Watching Ed was like watching a Michael Jackson concert! Our audience loved him!!!! This guy is the real deal and we can't wait to book him for more events in the future. Thank you so much Ed.

THE BEST!!!

Ed Hollis was so accommodating, thorough, professional and giving to the client! When he arrived, the crowd was in awe at the nostalgia of having Michael Jackson in the room! He really takes you back to the feeling you had while watching Michael! His moves are precise and his body language matches! His timing from transition from one song to the next is flawless and his ability to adapt to the room is impeccable. I would only book Ed Hollis for a Michael Jackson impersonator! He is well worth every penny and will give you a performance to talk about for a long time! He makes you want to book him time and time again! It also feels good supporting an impersonator from Michael Jacksons home town! Ed's connection to Michael shows through his work and you can see his love for Michael all throughout his performance! Ed's the one, stop looking elsewhere!

Ed Hollis performed at my surprise retirement party.

Ed Hollis is the best Michael Jackson tribute artist. I have seen him perform at the "Putting on the Hits" charity event for the last four years. Imagine my surprise when my family invited Ed to perform at my surprise retirement party. He added an extra special note to my memories of my event. He gave an awesome performance. My guests thoroughly enjoyed his performance and appreciated the fact the Ed remained after his performance to talk to and pose for pictures. I have always been a huge Michael Jackson fan and Ed's performances always take me back to the Michael Jackson era.

My brother thought he was watching an original Michael Jackson video when I was showing him Ed's "Smooth Criminal" performance. Ed encapsulates Michael Jackson's persona from his mannerisms, sense of style in costumes and dance moves. As you will see, he has perfected his craft. I know the response from audiences at events where I have seen him perform and my guests at my retirement party indicate to me that he is well in tune with what what audiences are looking for from an impersonator or tribute artist.

He's BAD

I hired Ed as the entertainment for my wife's 40th surprise birthday bash. Let me tell you SMH, he electrified the crowd with his amazing performance of a great legend MJ. My DJ said he brought him back to life , my photographer said he's the baddest he has seen since MJ. Watching Ed was like enjoying a concert with VIP seats. All our guest are still talking about a great party, posting pictures and most of all a live entertainment that our guests will never forget. All I can say is WOW! What a performance and Thank You for making her birthday special. Much love Charles & Aisha Adams

He gives a show to remember

Ed Hollis is a great impersonator of MJ. I have watched him several times volunteer his talents for a worthy cause each year for South Central Communuty Center and he never ceases to amaze me. He and his dancers are the real deal. He has also performed for me at a retirement party and you would have thought he really was Michael. He personifies perfection and professionalism when it comes to what he does. I'm telling you, he and his dancers gives a really really great show, you will be entertained!

This young man is AWESOME!!!!!

I saw Ed Hollis perform at a friend's outdoor party. I thought I was at a live concert. His appearance and performance was professional to say the least. His costumes were replicas of Michael Jackson's. I got so caught up I thought I was looking at Michael Jackson himself. He was so good I booked him to perform at my granddaughter's upcoming Sweet Sixteen party. It's a surprise gift from Grandma. I am sooo excited, can't wait to see him perform again.

Just superb and extremely professional.

Ed Hollis was hired to help us celebrate my husband's 70th birthday. Mt daughter and I wanted the party to have a special kick and Ed was just that. The party was at the end of May, yet family and friends are still talking about it. My husband and everyone else was mesmerized by the performance. So many wanted to know where we found him. Would definitely hire again!

Ed worked with our group leading up to the event and tailored his music and dancing to our needs. Was very professional, arrived on time for a dress rehearsal and stayed after his performance and took pictures with our guests. He added so much to our 80's party! A truly great talent!

It's as if Michael Jackson came back at his 80th Zenith.

Ed was a great performer, very lively, full of energy and an incredibly talented dancer. His group was amazing, and really knew how to keep the audience's attention. He performed Billie Jean, Smooth Criminal, Beat It, and Thriller. The costumes were authentic, and he stayed to take photos afterwards. Great fun, and I would definitely recommend for any event.

OUTSTANDING AND DYNAMIC

Seldom does one have the opportunity to give out honest and sincere PRAISE! I wish that this star rating would allow me to give 6-Stars! For I would give Ed Hollis a 6-Star rating for he truly is a dynamic performer and person. He surpassed a 5-Star rating! Our annual family and friends, 100 guests event was October 25th. Our theme was "Turning Back the Hands of Time,” we celebrated the 60's, 70's & 80's. Mr. Hollis' performance took us back in time to Michael! From the moment he stepped out on stage, we all became mesmerized and astounded; Michael Jackson was reborn, he was alive in ED. Hollis! His performance was nothing less than spellbinding. He was the climax performer to our event and he definitely climaxed out our evening with standing ovations, applause, screams and cheers! Mr. Hollis is an amazing performer with a wonderful personality. He is very friendly, courteous and considerate. He arrived early, completely prepared and ready to perform! As the coordinator of this event, I was so happy and ecstatic that I found Mr. Hollis (aka Michael Jackson) on Gig Salad. He is truly worthy of the praise. If you are searching for the best and you want a "STAR" to perform at your event, I highly recommend and advise you to choose "Michael Jackson (aka Ed Hollis). I was so taken and pleased with Ed Hollis' performance that I am booking him early for our next event!

Awesome!!!!!!

I hired Ed for a Surprise Birthday 40th Party for my wife. Ed did a fantastic job. He and his dancers were complete professionals. The costumes and choreography were spot on. He was even kind enough to let my wife dance beside him when she couldn't hold back anymore. She told me later that night she felt as though she was actually dancing beside MJ himself. Everyone from 3 to 80 years old enjoyed the show. I would not hesitate to recommend Ed and his crew to anyone. Thanks again for a great time Ed!!!! Jason Miller
