My husband and I will be in Vegas soon for our anniversary. Won't go into the long story, but there is a "Japanese Elvis Impersonator" joke between us.
I would really really really like to find an Asian Elvis impersonator while we are there.
Doesn't matter if it's a show or for hire. Just not having much luck googling one.
Can anyone help me?

Elvis impersonators are pretty thick here in Vegas, but an Asian one? Hmmm...that's a pretty tall call. Your best bet would be to call some of the local talent agencies. If you do find one, be sure to post the pictures here!

I heard that the Asian Elvis is voting for Obama in the NV caucus...he says "once you go Barack...you never go back!"

Use the Las Vegas telephone directory and search "entertainers" You should be able to find a lousy one at the very least.

EMBARQ™ Yellow Pages

Chineseelvis.com is located in England. You could maybe entice him to come to Vegas at the right price...

if you really must see one, and it is that important to you, you can always go to thai town in LA (about a 4hr drive from LV)...the palms thai has a live thai elvis that performs during dinners. food is good, show is fun...not sure it would be worth the 8hr rt, but if you have the coin you could get a big limo, stock it w/ goodies and make a full day out of it.

Haven't had any luck with the talent agencies so far, which is why I came here to ask, but thank you.
And thank you, Jim for your suggestion! Not sure we'd take that much time out of our trip for what I was hoping would be a fun surprise for him, but thank you very much.

yeah, no worries. doubt i would take the time either considering you're visiting, but if you ever find yourself in LA, it would definitely be worth checking out (and like i said, the food is pretty good also)
