"What a great read! Michael shines an honest, heartfelt and funny spotlight on what entertainers must endure to make it in Sin City. From dealing with the devil to rubbing shoulders with celebrities, Confessions of a Las Vegas Entertainer is a must-read for anyone who has an interest in what it takes to succeed in Las Vegas without selling your soul. Michael exposes the honest truth through his personal journey with a magnifying glass, pulling no punches with humor and wit.”

“Steve Jobs once said, “Life only makes sense looking backward.” You’d never imagine an introvert from the middle of nowhere with no industry connections would end up a Las Vegas headliner, but when you hear Michael explain it, well, it almost sounds obvious. This book is a confession of crimes, admission of guilt, recognition of failures, and the amazing success story of parlaying those things into an amazing career. Beyond that, Michael wastes no time introducing the vulnerability and insights that come on the other side of those kinds of adventures (if they don’t kill you first).”

"The shitty venues, and the fancy venues, the signs advertising the show right on the strip, the rock stars, and the waitresses, I was there for most of this.If you ever wondered what the real Vegas was like, this is it. Michael Johns has written an actual masterpiece with this book. Part memoir, part comedy, and part history book, this is the perfect read for anyone who yearns to find out what Vegas was really all about. Get ready to have your jaw drop at the outrageous stories and be amazed by the tales of real people in a place where fantasies come true. It's an unforgettable journey into the wild heart of Las Vegas!"

“Michael Johns is an entertainer pure and simple, whether it be on stage or in the pages of his book. The words he writes are inspiring, motivational, funny, and like his show, hypnotizing. Like a best selling thriller, page after page invites anticipation for the next. Johns never lets you down describing his  journey from a small mid-western town to the neon and excitement of Vegas. The brutal honesty in his words leave you wanting more.”

"A riveting manuscript that takes you on a magnificent journey into the mind and psychology of the performer. For those who dream of a career in entertainment, this will teach you the inner workings of what will be required to be a player in the game. For those who are already performers, it will be an emotional tour of the highs and lows, laughs and bruises of show business. Either way, be prepared for a marathon session because this is a book you will not be able to put down once you start it.”

“When Michael asked me to write the foreword for this book, I of course, without hesitation said I would be honored to do so before even reading it. I knew if it came from the mind of Michael Johns....it would be funny, insightful and honest. How did I know this? Well, because Michael is funny, smart and he is possibly one of the most honest and honorable people I have ever known. Watch his show and you will realize how funny he is. Have a conversation with him and you know this is one smart dude. Get to know him and you will realize how lucky you are to have crossed his path. This book is a “must read” for anyone in any part of show business who desires to rise above the mediocrity and become a truly great entertainer. You see, in addition to and perhaps above everything else...Michael Johns is a GREAT entertainer. Do yourself a favor....read this book once for the enjoyment and then read it again...slowly...and try to absorb the things this gentleman has to teach. This book is about the rules of the profession, but more importantly it is about the rules of a life well lived.”

“Everything I have in my career I have because of Michael Johns. He not only allowed me an opportunity, he coached me into being a better performer.  His mentoring made me successful and his friendship made me a better person.    If you want to understand what it means to succeed in not only one of the most obscure arts in show business,  but in yourself as well,  READ THIS BOOK.”
