Edward Moss (impersonator)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Edward Moss (born 11 July 1977 in Los Angeles) is a well-known impersonator of singer Michael Jackson.
While working at McDonald's in the early 1990s' he practiced his act in his spare time after being repeatedly told how much he resembled the singer. In 1994, he won a company talent contest, after which he took up impersonating Jackson as a profession. Since then he has been hired by Jackson himself to stand in for him on a number of occasions, and has appeared in a number of films including the third and fourth Scary Movie films, and Date Movie.
Moss claims to be the only professional Michael Jackson impersonator in the world not to have had any surgery to more closely resemble the singer; the only things he uses for his act are a common Jackson-style wig and white skin foundation.
