That's what Julie McGinley did after constantly being told she looked like Victoria Beckham aka Posh Spice. The 22-year-old student has been working as a Victoria Beckham lookalike now for nearly two years. "It started when I was a student in Brighton doing a degree in sports science," she said.  | | Julie as Victoria |
"And everywhere I went people would continually say I looked like Victoria Beckham so I decided to become a lookalike." The former pupil of St George's School, Harpenden, who used to live in Flamstead, has been on the popular BBC programme Celebdaq as well as featuring on other channels and in The Sun and Heat magazine. The MBA student earns about £500 an appearance but she doesn't consider being a lookalike as a long-term career. "I want to go into events management. This is fun and it's good to do while Victoria Beckham is in the press so much." Both Julie and Victoria hail from Hertfordshire and Julie admits both have the same taste in clothes and Julie had her hair extensions put on by the same company that did Victoria's.  | | Julie or Victoria? It's Julie |
Julie does not sing though - and she says her boyfriend looks more like Russell Crowe than Golden Balls David Beckham. And does she ever get fed up of being mistaken for Posh? "It's quite easy not to get attention," explains Julie. "Victoria never wears her hair pulled up so if I don't want to be mistaken I simply put my hair up and wear something like tracksuit bottoms."
