We certainly wouldn't complain if we looked like Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge -- and Heidi Agan is now making a career out of it.

The Daily Mail reports that this "Kate Middleton lookalike" quit her £6/hour waitressing gig to be a full time Kate Middleton impersonator. She charges £650 (roughly $1000) for public appearances as the Duchess.

The 32-year-old mother of two says even her three-year-old daughter can't hardly tell her apart from Kate. She sees Middleton in magazines and says, "There you are, mummy!"

Agan has joined up with London agency Susan Scott Lookalikes and has since purchased outfits that mimic some of Kate's most famous looks. Agan says the weirdest thing she's done so far is play Twister with a Prince William and a Queen Elizabeth lookalike.

"I guess people want to put us in real-life situations that they would never see the Royal Family in, like playing Twister," she says. "It's a huge difference from working in a restaurant and it pays better. It's a really fun job as I'm doing something different every day."

What do you think, readers? Is it uncanny?
