C.J. as Dolly
Country music songbird, writer, actress, philanthropist and entrepreneur Dolly Parton is easily one of the most recognizable celebrities in the world with numerous awards and accolades across the globe. From humble beginnings, hers is truly a rags-to-riches American success story. Talent, drive and a keen business sense have taken this legend far from her country roots, but her heart stayed true to the mountains where she was raised.
C.J. Morgan has always been a big fan of Dolly Parton and they were enough alike in looks, sound and personality that it was an easy stretch for her to recreate the living legend for shows and appearances. She has won almost every Dolly look-alike contest she has ever entered as well as winning accolades from peers, clients and audiences.
As one of the most authentic Dolly impersonator/tribute artists in the business, C.J. is the best when it comes to improvisational, one-on-one situations such as meet-and-greets and group interaction. Her appearance, mannerisms and banter are realistic to the point of needing security at some events. She even has the trademark 'Dolly' giggle. Her live renditions of Dolly's songs are as heartfelt as the original and she projects the same down-to-earth sense of playful joy and candor evident in interviews with Ms. Parton. C.J. is constantly photographed, asked for autographs and sought out by tourists, fans, organizations and production companies.
With her delightful sense of humor, attention to detail, talent and an extensive background in improvisational theater, C.J. can add fun and excitement to any event.
