Michael Cole |
Some call him the “ghost of Michael Jackson” – others, the “shadow of MJ.” These are just some of the ways people have attempted to describe Michael Cole. And while it may be debatable as to which name best suites the performer for his talent, it is without argument that Michael Cole is Michigan's #1 Michael Jackson Tribute Artist.
For the past 4 years Michael Cole has been putting all his time and energy into the illusion of the King of Pop, Michael Jackson. Over the past few years, he has gained recognition throughout the state of Michigan for his shockingly amazing resemblance to Michael Jackson both on and off the stage. Michael Cole not only looks like Michael Jackson but has also developed his mannerisms, his presence, his dances and his performances to bring the true spirit of Michael Jackson back to life.
Michael Cole was born in Detroit, Michigan, in April of 1989. Growing up in a large family of entertainers, Michael Cole was one of the youngest in the family. Growing up, Michael Cole, very similarly to Michael Jackson, learned the value and price of hard work. They similarly sacrificed parts of their childhoods because of strict family upbringing and constant rehearsing. Michael Cole was always busy with dancing, singing, rehearsing, and performing. It wasn't until 2007 that Michael Cole thought of the possibilities of realizing his dream of being like Michael Jackson through impersonation of the iconic star.
Through the years of his performance of the Illusion of Michael Jackson, Michael Cole has immediately been recognized by many people throughout Michigan for his shocking ability to capture the spirit of Michael Jackson. Michael Cole has won over 30 local talent and impersonation contests, and in 2009, was awarded the best Male Entertainer in the Detroit area from Performance Awards of Detroit (PAD). Most recently, Michael Cole won a state-wide competition where he became 2011 Detroit/Michigan's King of Illusionist.
Over the past several years, Michael Cole has been able to perform with many nationally known entertainers and has traveled out of Michigan to perform at other large events as a special guest performer for large talent contests and shows. He has been asked to perform at many corporate events as well as at casinos and hotels. Today Michael Cole is still performing and loving every second of it.
