I started singing late because I could not hear the music. You can see me trying to signal to the sound man. I loved getting on Joan Rivers. I read all her books. She gives great advice about showbiz. She had no idea that I had plans to goof around with her. She is so funny here. Unrehearsed! She's great! Dress by: Heddy Jo Star (custom made Las Vegas).

He has all the right movements and little facial expressions that she had. This is amazing to watch.

@CarbonSXMonkey Bob didn't use his own voice but Jimmy does, plus in my opinion Jimmy looks more like Marilyn...
