Elvis Impersonator
An Elvis impersonator is an entertainer who impersonates or copies the look and sound of American music icon Elvis Presley. Professional Elvis impersonators, commonly known as Elvis tribute artists (ETAs), work all over the world as entertainers and such tribute acts remain in great demand due to the unique iconic status of Elvis. There are even several radio stations that exclusively feature Elvis impersonator material. Some of these impersonators go to Graceland on the anniversary of Presley’s death to make their personal tribute to the artist. Wikipedia.
