Rhonda was hired for my house party for family and friends. She started entertaining us the second she walked through the door and kept us laughing, truly mesmerized by her talent of being Lucy Ricardo! I got many compliments on my choice of entertainment! She perfectly mimicked Lucy’s personality and mannerisms!! We loved loved her Vita-Meta-Vegamin commercial!! Going to have another party in October and can’t decide which personality I would like Rhonda to impersonate! Thank you, Rhonda!!!!

Hi Karlene, Thank you for the review!
Oh my goodness, she was Awesome!!! Every moment was fun and memorable. The birthday boy continued to talk about the event today, as well as his family. We sent videos and pictures to his other family in Reno and they were nothing but happy. I would recommend Rhonda for any event. I would have to get the families permission to post any pictures. Thanks again, Felecia Staples

Rhonda is a super singer and came as Dolly Parton for our women's club meeting and luncheon. She wowed our ladies with her wit, singing and personality for 30 minutes! We all wished we had her for a full length show of her female impersonations! Here is a pic I snapped of her right before she was introduced!

Rhonda was fantastic! She stayed in character the entire time and was very authentic. She was also very considerate and asked if she needed to keep her mask on the entire time. Our whole group had a blast and she made the night so much extra fun! Definitely book Rhonda and you won’t be disappointed!

Response from Rhonda Medina:
Dear Kelsey and Jolene,
Thank you so much for the wonderful review!!!
Rhonda appeared at our wedding as Lucille Ball (my family is full of Lucy fans), and everyone enjoyed her SO MUCH! She looks spot-on like Lucy, she reenacted Lucy's best scenes & quotes, she interacted with all of our guests, posed for so many photos... she helped make it memorable and FUN. Including her at our reception was a fantastic decision!
Lucille Ball Impersonator
Everyone enjoyed the program and she did a great job getting the audience to participate and feel special. I would highly recommend her for any event I was having! Thanks to her our event was spectacular!
Marilyn Monroe Impersonator
Miss Medina was just simply MARILYN. She stayed in "character" from the moment she hit the door and never broke not for a moment. She entertained, she flirted, she danced she sang. Everyone loved her. You will not be dissapointed if you hire her for your event, she is 1000% professional. Thank you for making our event OH SO SANTA BABY!
Marilyn Monroe Impersonator
Response from Rhonda Medina:
Thank you, Riana! It was my pleasure. One Question: Did Santa survive all my flirting? Ho, ho,ho!!!!
I hired Rhonda to perform as Marilyn Monroe for my company's 10 year anniversary. She was beautiful and 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 Rhonda. I received phone calls up to 3 days later of friends who thanked me for inviting them just because they got to experience Rhonda's performance. A+

What to Expect
People always say to me "You look like you're having a great time". And, it's true. I always have a great time as the "life " of the party!
I can perform more than one character at an event. My hair, make up and costuming are beautiful and true to the character. My musical performances are top notch! I can easily incorporate information about your guests into my presentation to enhance and personalize the experience. I can always help hosting or MC your party. Whether your guests are conservative or party animals, I can adjust my performance (and costuming) to suit.
About
Greetings! My name is Rhonda Medina. I have been performing as a professional Vocalist, Actress, Impressionist and Comedienne since 1995. I specialize as a Celebrity Tribute Artist performing as Dolly Parton, Cyndi Lauper, Christina Aguilera, Julie Andrews, Patsy Cline, Judy Garland, Liza Minnelli, Bette Midler, Barbra Streisand, Adele Adkins, Marilyn Monroe, Lucille Ball & Mae West. During the Christmas holidays, I even perform as a comical Mrs. Claus!
I have two bands. Lady and The Tramps a 6 piece band for all occasions (weddings, clubs, festivals, private parties) and Upswing Band, a 20 piece Big Band for Jazz lovers who dig the sweet sound of the 30's-50's Swing era.
I am originally from Los Angeles where I performed for Universal Studios between stage shows in Musical Theater. I currently live in Dallas, Texas where I perform as a Celebrity Tribute Artist on a weekly basis for local and national venues, coach musical theater and perform my One-Woman musical comedy show "Legendary Ladies".
I would love to make your special event a memorable one that folks will chat about for years to come.
***I have excellent local reviews which you can read by clicking on the "Testimonials" tab.

Influences & Inspiration
Marilyn Monroe will never stop influencing me. Although she has been gone for 50 years, somehow she never ceases to surprise me. I love Lucille Ball with her dedication to creating brilliant comedy and keeping her family values. I love Country, Pop, Lite Rock, Swing Jazz and Broadway. Come to think of it...I love every form of music. I guess that's why I do it all. And, do it well! In the words of Whitney Houston “I’m Every Woman. It’s All In Me.”
Setup Requirements
A break room or changing area are required if I am performing more than one character or if the event is over two hours.

We Love Lucy! Just wanted to thank you for such an enjoyable time. You touched our residents, family and staff. One of our residents was laughing so hard she had tears and she never laughs that hard. You just made Maggie's night and she was talking about it this morning when I arrived. You have a true gift and we are so excited that we will see you next month.
Thanks Again,

Rhonda's Marilyn Monroe is simply fabulous! She looked stunning and fell right into the role upon arrival. Our guests were entertained and pleased to have such a unique addition to our holiday pictures with Santa. She is divine and I already recommended her to a few people that were at the party!
