Jade Roberts is an actor and a highly valued celebrity impersonator based in Dallas, Texas, with global experience as an entertainer. He's primarily known for his work as a Sylvester Stallone impersonator, a journey that started when Roberts won a Rocky lookalike contest in college. For decades, he's toured with other celebrity impersonators and worked hundreds of solo gigs, most often as Rocky or Rambo, more recently adding Stallone's character from The Expendables franchise, Barney Ross, to his repertoire.
Roberts reaches far beyond the physical appearance of Stallone's characters to create a memorable, interactive experience for audiences and corporate events. He replicates the instantly recognizable sound of Sly, and incorporates familiar movie dialogue into his act, often improvising lines from the Hollywood legend's large body of work to fit the situation. It's the reason he's considered the premier Stallone impersonator in America and around the world.
Roberts has taken the impersonation of Stallone into films, most recently in the French dark comedy, C'est extra, starring Gerard Depardieu and written and directed by Guillaume Nicloux. His earlier impersonation work includes the 2013 parody comedy, The Starving Games. His role as a Stallone lookalike connected him on screen with other lookalike actors as a nod to The Expendables. The group has since created its own parody projects under the name, The Expandables.
The Florida native's other passion is physical fitness, and he's devoted years to helping others increase their strength and improve their health through his work as a fitness trainer. In Dallas, he operates Body by Jade and BodybyJadeFitness.com, using his training expertise and impersonation skills to help and motivate his clients. Roberts also trains and develops programs for clients at their homes and home gyms.
