If you're an Elvis impersonator fan, you've no doubt heard of Elvez - the Mexican Elvis impersonator. Good on impersonaotrs like El Vez and Chinese Elvis (I covred him in an earlier blog). They play on the fact that they're not the stereo-typical Elvis impersonator ansd they do mighty well for themselves!

I remember trying to push my way to the front of the stage as the Mexican Elvis impersonator gyrated about in gold lamé, sequins and a Santa hat singing about Poncho and Pedro instead of Blitzen and Vixen, as his Elvettes--Priscillita, Gladysita and Lisa Maria--showed off their choreographed moves. The crowd was all smiles, and it was easy to see why.
Thanks to Judi Blackwell for this interesting piece.
Oh yeah, here's a link to the official site of El Vez http://www.elvez.net/
