Jimmy James as Marilyn Monroe live on 'Eye On Tampa', 1993. Jimmy would later complain, that he became very nervous due to the fact that he could not hear the music in the studio nor the vocal from the micraphone. It was recorded live and could not be re-shot. He made mistakes in the lyrics. But as you can see and hear it's not lip sync.

  • Jimmy..... As a life long MM admirer, I have to say you are AWESOME in your portrayal of Marilyn, YOU ARE DEAD ON IN EVERY ASPECT and I would just love to see you in person!!

  • @tgurlplaymate4u Thank You! I retired from performing as Marilyn in 1997. All I can offer are videos for people to watch. I did the MM thing for about 17 years and that was longer than she did herself did it. I've moved on into recording, acting and doing voice impressions. Enjoy the videos. ;)

  • I was on a tour through Florida during this time. I had an early morning rehearsal for this early morning local talk show in Tampa. But unfortunately at the taping they had my vocal so low that I could not hear myself sing in the studio (although it sounds fine in the feed here). You can see me getting angry. I messed up the words at 2:40 - 2:47. Then I threw the mic on the floor.
