March 18, 2025Memorable Highlight of Our Party
Joanna was one of our secret surprises to my husband’s milestone birthday. She delivered BIG TIME and then some! I think Marilyn Monroe herself would have been delighted and honored by Joanna. She not only sang well but also kindly pivoted to some special requests for us that she didn’t have to do. She was gracious and stayed in her role the entire time and it was priceless to see our guests’ responses to her. My husband didn’t want to wash his face either! I would absolutely recommend her if you want to make your event memorable and fun!

February 4, 2024Amazing Birthday Suprise!
Joanna was amazing I was so lucky I was able to book her with short notice. She is more beautiful than the photos convey. She has an amazing voice (better than Marilyn’s) and embodies Marilyn’s elegance and humor. If I do this again I will definitely book Joanna.

June 11, 2023AMAZING!
I just saw Joanna's performance as Marilyn Monroe, and I have to say, it was incredible! She was so professional and talented in her portrayal. It really felt like I was watching Marilyn herself up there on stage. I was completely captivated by her performance and couldn't take my eyes off her. It's clear that Joanna put a lot of effort and dedication into perfecting her role, and it definitely paid off. Thank you for making my husband's birthday such a memorable experience.

March 19, 2026Outstanding and Entertaining
WOW! WOW! and WOW! Joanna Lynn as Marilyn was just amazing. She performed for our festival/meeting. Marilyn was just terrific singing, her spoken presentation and pictures with the group afterward were spectacular. Everyone loved the show. I would love to see her again. I would give her 15 stars if that was an option. If you want a truly wonderful experience, get Joanna Lynn as Marilyn Monroe!

Joanna’s communication was excellent throughout. Perfect for our retirement party. Flirty with the guest of honor but exactly appropriate. They all loved her. She is gorgeous and is a spitting image of Marilyn Monroe. Highly recommend.
