Jacko Is An Icon

The Las Vegas Weekly spoke with Victoria Ribeiro, the new vice president of marketing for Splash, to ask why the casino still has a Michael Jackson impersonator. “Michael Jackson is an icon. Always has been, always will be,” he said. “That’s why Splash continues to present an untarnished image of him. He’s still very popular with the Asian markets, as well. The Asian communities still love Michael Jackson as he was, not as he is, and we believe that we provide a place where he can still maintain his integrity on stage and be represented in the same light as he was in his heyday.”
