Devon Cass REALLY knows his stuff, and he shows and demonstrates it ALL in this book! He's elevated celebrity impersonations into an artform, and chronicled every single step for the reader. Buy this book and be AMAZED at the transformative powers of makeup, clothes, hair, etc. to create indelible images.

As a celebrity impersonator, I found Devon's tips invaluable

As a celebrity impersonator who performs as Neil Diamond, I found Devon's make-up tips invaluable. In addition to featuring people who naturally resemble the celebrities whom they impersonate (such as Bette Midler as Gloria Estefan), Devon transformed a male who bore no natural resemblance to Liza or Ru Paul and made him over to resemble each. Amazing! I would recommend this book to anyone, in show biz or not, because it is most entertaining and informative. Tom Sadge.

A great book!

Devon Cass looks so much like Cher it's frightening. He has done a wonderful job of bringing Hollywood glamour to everyday people, a skill which should be appreciated in our star-struck culture. Cass's photographs are beautiful and John Filimon's commentary is very engaging. One of the best books I've seen this year!
