• She was the most noticeable person the whole time.She was enthusiastic and looked and sounded like Marilyn.I have to say some like it Marilyn but We loved it Jodi!!! Thank You -- Richard D, Los Angeles, CA, 12/10/2011
• She was brilliant. From the time that she entered the room to the time that she left, you thought that Marilyn Monroe was there. Her jestures, her stature, her smile, her movements and her mannerisms were so authentic. She was very gracious with the guest and made sure that everyone had a chance to experience the beauty and glamour of Marilyn. The guest of honor is still talking about what a wonderful surprise Marilyn was and how special it made his 90th birthday. Jodi as Marilyn far exceeded our expectations and we were delighted with Jodi and her performance. -- Sally G, La Quinta, CA, 2/22/2012
• Our daughter has always been enthralled with Marilyn Monroe so for her 30th birthday we hired Jodi (Marilyn) as a surprise. Wow! She was Fantastic! Jodi brought Marilyn "to life" in every detail from her "breathless" voice to her gestures, mannerisms, and songs. Her ability to stay in character is amazing and she actually had us feeling as though Marilyn was really there. She put the very surprised birthday girl at ease chatting as if they were best friends sharing Marilyn personal life comments and memories. Ever gracious, she "performed" with each guest as the cameras clicked away and the crowd showed its enthusiasm. We highly recommend Jodi. She is a star! -- Dareen Y, Altadena, CA, 5/27/2012
• Jodi was FANTASTIC!! I can't say enough good things about the whole experience. It was for my father's 80th birthday and she MADE the party. EVERYONE LOVED HER! She was so talented and personable. My father can't stop talking about her. She was so wonderful! Everyone thought she was the total and beautiful Marilyn Monroe!!!! She was a PLEASURE to work with!!! You can't go wrong with her!!! -- Sharon E, Villa Park, CA, 9/8/2011
• I hired Jody to perform as Marilyn M for my husbands 50th birthday party. She was BEYOND beautiful, her performance left every person there feeling as though they were also the most special person in the room. She was a true professional, an extraordinary performer, and was so elegant. We almost forgot that she was actually not the real Marilyn. She spent time with the adults and the kids and it was like talking to a real movie star. I cannot say enough about that night and how truly epic it was because of Jody. I received phone calls up to 3 days later of friends who thanked me for inviting them just because they got to experience Jody's performance. A+ -- April R, Hermosa Beach, CA, 12/23/2010
• My husband is a Marilyn fan, and I hired Jodi as his surprise gift. Everyone loved her and she went all out to make him feel special. We have several Marilyn posters in our game room, and even our six year old daughter said "she's more beautiful in person." If you want to meet the real Marilyn then you only need to hire Jodi, saying she's the best doesn't say enough. THANK YOU JODI FOR MAKING MY HUSBAND's 40th a DAY HE WON'T FORGET! -- Karen H, Murrieta, CA, 2/20/2010
• Jodi was absolutely fantastic! She is gorgeous, has a beautiful voice and has every movement and mannerism of Marilyn Monroe "down to a tee"!

She was the life of the party. Everyone was in awwww watching her perform and I highly highly recommend her to! She was the best present we could of given my brother. The memories of that evening will never be forgotten! -- Margaret D, San Diego, CA, 10/25/2008
• Jodi was the highlight of the party. She was adorable, in character the whole time she was with our guests and not just during her performances, her talent was first class, her looks exceptional, her desire to make sure that the guest of honor and ALL of the guests were enjoying themselves was sincere and I will be forever grateful that I found her for our party. -- Debbie T, Woodland Hills, CA, 10/17/2009
