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.

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.

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."
