Robert Townsend’s Amazing Daughter!
Multi-talent Robert Townsend has a 23 years old daughter, Skylar Townsend, who is famous as Skye Townsend and has been surprising people with her spot-on impersonations of Beyonce. Impersonation is hard to do, and very few achieve perfection as she has.
She imitates Beyonce perfectly, and posts the videos via Instagram which startles many, but how did the impersonation start?
On July 25, 2014, Skye posted mash up video and shared the journey which began back in 2006. She loved the way Beyonce talked, so she started imitating her and made silly videos which initiated her imitating career.
But Skylar never thought it would turn out as big as it did. Although she is good at imitating, she does not want to remain a YouTube sensation. She feels that she is an artist and wants to be known as an actress and a singer too.
Making someone smile and laugh is considered as the most difficult art. And who had thought a hobby of Skye would be so famous and entertain people and become the reason for smile and laughter in many faces.
