Overview

Palin's staff took one look at Patsy & escorted her backstage to play a joke on Sarah at a huge rally. Sarah came through the curtain and exclaimed, "Oh My Gosh! It's like looking in a mirror!" After finding out they shared the same University degree, same 1st job (TV anchor), same middle name, and both had children with Down Syndrome, Sarah mused, "Wow! We DO have a lot in common!" Truly great impersonators have more than just “the look,” they also have the uncanny ability to embody the heart and soul of the person they are imitating. That’s what makes Patsy Gilbert so spectacular in her presentation of political luminary Sarah Palin. Make sure YOUR audience gets more than just "the look".

50th Birthday Surprise

We hired "Sarah", aka Patsy, as a birthday surprise for a good friend in South Beach. Boy did she deliver! She took a few background tidbits on our friend which I had provided beforehand and crafted a great, fun and light roasting! Everyone was in stitches.

Thanks to Sue and the gang for providing such fun fuel for the roasting fire! The hotel "secret service" had as much fun as the guests! My favorite gigs are when I truly feel I have made true friends! Thanks for the memories! AND I MEAN IT! YOU BETCHA!

NONE BETTER - NONE MORE TRUE TO LIFE!

Patsy Gilbert is "THE" ringer for Sarah Palin. The look right off the bat takes your breath - her speech patterns, mannerisms, personality, and character are all combined into the person herself. I was MAJORLY impressed (and that doesn't happen often!) Congratulations on a wonderful talent and gift! Jimmy Mac

Patsy put on an incredible event from the University of Florida student community. Along with her good friend, Jennifer "Nancy Pelosi" Ramsey, Patsy created a hilarious political speech and debate specifically tailored to our market. As a person, she is incredible nice, and a joy to work with. I would highly recommend her for your next event. Point blank, SHE IS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!

As the creator of Sarah Palin's Mooseburger Helper, we were in need for a spokesperson to represent and promote the product. Upon meeting Patsy Gilbert, it was clear she fit the bill. She's smart, witty, easy to work with, and went the extra mile for us in the creation of a 30-second commercial which has gone viral on YouTube. Patsy is the next best thing to having Sarah in the house! You won't be disappointed.

What to expect

CLIENTS MAY NOW CHOOSE TO HAVE SARAH WINK ALONG WITH THE BOTOX BLINKER, NANCY PELOSI, AS THEY PERFORM THE WINK&BLINK TOUR... DEBATING THE NATIONS HOTTEST ISSUES WITH GUNS AND GAVELS!

About

Like the celebrated vice-presidential candidate, both were pageant queens and athletic team captains. Like Sarah,Patsy cut her teeth in broadcast journalism—developing a homespun honesty on both sides of the camera. They are both runners and have gun-totin' First-Dude types who love to hunt and fish. While Palin relished being a Hockey Mom, Gilbert loved her real-life role as Soccer Mom. Even more remarkably, like Sarah, Patsy and her husband were blessed with a loving Down Syndrome child.

When Governor Palin burst onto the national stage as John McCain’s running mate, Patsy saw a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. A consummate professional, Gilbert quickly developed comedic material while perfecting Palin’s accent and mannerisms. She and long-time family friend and President George W. Bush impersonator, John Morgan, were a smash at September’s “Sunburst Celebrity Impersonator’s Convention” in Orlando, FL. Just a few days later, they posed for photos with thousands of enthusiastic fans at October’s Presidential Debate ‘08 Block Party at Belmont University in Nashville, TN, just yards away from where the actual candidates sparred.

Gilbert’s on-camera credits include work for Kentucky Fried Chicken and Universal Studios as well as news anchor experience for KSLA-TV (Shreveport, LA), KRCG-TV (Jefferson City, MO), KOMU-TV and KBIA-TV (Columbia, MO). Patsy’s voice-over talents can be heard on spots for Universal Studios, Pepsi, Sheraton Hotels, and Sears. Her producer clients include Pepsi’s Daytona 24 Challenge, General Mills/Red Lobster, Wet ‘n Wild, and Rooms to Go.

Patsy grew up in St. Louis, Missouri and holds to her Midwestern values. She's an active member of her church and knows that when it comes to family, you spell love “t-i-m-e.” Patsy and her husband, Dave, now make their home in Orlando, FL, along with their two sons, Devon and Dylan, and one daughter, Dallas Elizabeth.

“The most rewarding part of impersonating Sarah,” says Patsy “is embracing her courage, convictions, and moral compass. Now that I’m impersonating Sarah, I have an excuse for being feisty and unapologetically stubborn when standing up for what I believe.“

With her journalism and production background, Patsy is uniquely qualified to entertain and amuse as "The Impalinator!"

Testimonials

It was an immense pleasure being in the company of such a fine professional and sweet inspirational lady like Patsy. I am still blown away by how much you brought to the NAPE show in Houston...and to me personally. You don't need me to tell you how good you are at what you do (the crowd does that ) ....but I am the one who can personally testify at how hard you work and how much you put into being the best in the business. You are remarkable, Patsy.

Patsy, as Sarah Palin, had us rolling in laughter! I loved how she customized her show with personalized material and roasted many of my friends. She looked and sounded identical to Sarah Palin and all the party guests wanted pictures with her. Patsy was funny the moment she got off the plane, great fun to be around and I really enjoyed having her.

– Dean Maynard, The Maynard Group/Santa Cruz, CA.

An EXCELLENT and funny Sarah Palin impersonator... . Very bright, great on camera, a good talker, humble, and very entertaining.

– Jody Eldred, Filmmaker/Author, Los Angeles, CA

Patsy Gilbert was just great! I enjoyed Patsy more than Tina Fey on Saturday Night Live! We would definitely invite her back and we hope to see a lot more of her over the next 4 years!! Best of Luck Patsy!

– Patty Redlich, President, NW Orange Republican Women Federation

I did a double take when Sarah (oops, I mean Patsy) walked into the ballroom! What a fabulous job this doppelganger did that evening!!!
