He says people support Jackson and he can tell by the number of bookings
The documentary aimed to expose Jackson as a paedophile who groomed boys
Performing for 11 years Mr Styles says the film caused 'a surge in interest'
Michael Jackson impersonators are 'busier than ever' since an investigative documentary aimed to expose the 'King of Pop' as a paedophile was released.
Jay Styles, from Cambridge, has performed as Jackson for 11 years and says the impact of the documentary Leaving Neverland was 'incredible', caused 'a surge in interest' and he is now 'rushed off his feet'.
And Mitchell Thompson, 38, has just spent £3,500 on 13 new outfits for a theatre tour in June.
Mr Mitchell says he has had 'quite a few' bookings since the documentary aired.
For Mr Styles bookings flooded in after the four-hour feature film was first shown at Sundance Film Festival in January.
The two-part documentary was released on Channel 4 last week.
In the film Wade Robson and James Safechuck reveal the years of sexual abuse they suffered at the hands of Jackson on his California ranch known as Neverland.
While Jackson claimed to love both boys the men revealed they were dropped and replaced by a younger child when they grew too old.
But instead of claims Jackson was a paedophile who groomed boys from the age of seven putting a stop to bookings Mr Styles says his phone has not stopped ringing.
And Mr Mitchell said he can see people are supporting him through the number of bookings he still gets.
