City plays host to Madonna look-alike | The Asian Age
She is known as one of the best impersonators of the famous singer Madonna. Melissa Totten, who is in India for a seven-city tour as a part of the ongoing Black Dog Madonna forever tour, says that she loves the attention that she gets as a Madonna look-alike.
Melissa kicked off the tour in Goa two days ago and is ready to perform in Gurgaon today. This is the second time she is coming to India. The last one was 18 years ago.
Melissa thinks the show in Goa was a great one, as she could see people enjoying themselves. “I could see some people in the audience even dancing to the songs,” she says.
The 90-minute show has some of the most popular songs of Madonna. Melissa says that there’s something for everyone. “From the songs of a traditional Madonna to a modern Madonna, there’s all included in it,” she says.
Talking about her journey as Madonna’s impersonator, Melissa says that it was just an accident willing to happen. It was more than 20 years ago when somebody noticed her resemblance to the singer and offered her a show and since then there has been no stopping. “It’s a rather long story. I was a modelling student, studying advertising. A professor noticed me and I got an offer to do a stage show. It never stopped after that,” she quips.
