Before I reveal the winner of our annual poll on who is Michael Jackson #1 impersonator, I would like to thank all the fans that have participated and voted. I would like also to show appreciation to part of our community that really mobilised behind some of the impersonators they think deserve the title of #1 Michael Jackson Impersonator.
The aim of this poll is really to bring our community together and I feel it has accomplished just that.
Since we started this poll in 2017, we learned a lot and modified the poll. Not only it got bigger and much more diverse but also we implemented a more fair voting system which avoid any trickery. By doing so, we saw the number of votes decreasing meaning that each vote is now a true vote and not just one person voting multiple times to trick the voting system. This came at a cost but frankly, our community and the winner deserve it!
So to the winner of this poll now… I am so pleased to announce that the #1 Michael Jackson Impersonator 2024 is…
E Casanova

About E Casanova:
Born in Los Angeles, California, E’Casanova became fascinated with the Jackson 5ive cartoon reruns while still a toddler. By the age of 16 he knew he wanted to pursue a show business career and began competing in talent contests. After winning these contests over and over again with his tributes to Michael Jackson.
In Las Vegas E’Casanova became the “must see” act on The Strip with stints in several production extravaganzas and was the $10,000 Grand Prize Winner of MGM Grand’s worldwide celebrity look-alike contest.
In the 1989 movie, Back to the Future II, Evans portrays Michael Jacksonon on a video simulacrum serving as a waiter for the Cafe 80’s in the fictional year 2015. The café in which the scene took place is where some scenes for the “Beat It” music video were shot.

In March 2007, E’Casanova was invited to perform in Japan at a prestigious VIP party in honor of Michael Jackson. It was Michael’s first time ever seeing E’Casanova perform in person, to which Michael remarked, “It’s eerie…like looking in a mirror.”
“Michael Jackson was my greatest inspiration, the soundtrack to my life, and is forever embedded in my DNA. He is the last of the great song and dance men. More importantly, he was my friend. I will forever continue to protect the integrity of his legend.”– E’Casanova
