Toni as the Queen (PA Real Life/Collect) *** Mum who taught herself to face paint while working in a nursery transforms herself
into everyone from Trump to Mr Bean using her make up bag
By Erin Cardiff, PA Real Life
*With video contact video@pamediagroup.com
A former nursery nurse who taught herself make up skills by painting childrens faces
at work is using her incredible talent to transform herself into famous people - ranging
from Donald Trump to Mr Bean.
Toni-Louise Fay's knack for face painting, which saw her being booked for children's
birthday parties, has come into its own during the Covid-19 lockdowns, when she has
made herself up as everyone from Boris Johnson to Eminem.
A nursery nurse for 10 years, she decided to switch careers during her maternity
leave in 2017 after having her daughter, Harper-Rae, three - enrolling on a two-year
special effects make up course.
Now studying for a second make up degree at UCEN Manchester, she has
entertained herself and her family during the pandemic, by making herself look like a
dead ringer for everyone from Mr Bean to Eastenders' Dot Cotton.
Toni, 30, of Rossendale, Lancashire, who funds her studies with part time cleaning
work, said: I started out completely self-taught.
"Id watch tutorials on Instagram and YouTube, then have an experiment myself with
whatever I could find in the house.
During lockdown, I havent had anybody else to practise on, so I had no choice but to
use my own face.
There are only so many different colourful eyeshadow looks you can do, so I started
thinking outside the box and going for famous faces instead.
Always a great lover of make up, one of Tonis favourite parts of her former role as a
nursery nurse was face painting for the children.
Soon she was such a dab hand with a brush and palette that she began earning extra
pin money by working at parties for local parents.

Jessie as Mariah (PA Real Life/Collect) *** Ex-military policewoman rakes in over £1,500 an hour as a Mariah
Carey lookalike
By Harriet Whitehead, PA Real Life
*With video contact video@pamediagroup.com
An ex-military policewoman is fulfilling her 'Fantasy' and raking in over £1,500 an hour
for impersonating her idol Mariah Carey after more than 4,000 fans subscribed to
her YouTube channel to see her lip-sync to the divas hits.
Now Jessie Castro, 39, of Orlando, Florida, USA - who has appeared in a
documentary and on US talk shows after her lookalike videos went viral - is preparing
for a full-on festive season, when she will come into her own lip- syncing to the
singer's Yuletide classic, All I Want For Christmas Is You.
And with multi-Grammy award winning Mariah turning 50 this year, launching a new
book this month and releasing an album in October, mum-of-one Jessie is anticipating
a lucrative few months ahead - even though her performing work is just a 'side hustle'
to her current job as a college administrator at Full Sail University in Winter Park,
Florida.
She said: "I cant say theres an average amount I make each year because I can go
for months without doing gigs, but it must be in excess of $20,000 (£15,640) annually,
if I do a gig every three months and two a week at Christmas.
It was after a video call with the world number one Madonna impersonator, Chris
America, following a lookalike convention in 2015 that Jessie, who has a son, Arian,
12 - having noticed a surge in people saying she looked like Mariah after her album,
Butterfly, went multi-platinum in 1997 - started to develop her career.
She said: I had met Chris America over video call and she became kind of a mentor
to me. She was amazing. She is a star among lookalikes.
She told me, You need to charge what youre worth.'
"And, while there are a million Elvis and Marilyn Monroe impersonators out there,
there were not many Mariahs. So, without any real competition, I b

Jessie as Mariah (PA Real Life/Collect) *** Ex-military policewoman rakes in over £1,500 an hour as a Mariah
Carey lookalike
By Harriet Whitehead, PA Real Life
*With video contact video@pamediagroup.com
An ex-military policewoman is fulfilling her 'Fantasy' and raking in over £1,500 an hour
for impersonating her idol Mariah Carey after more than 4,000 fans subscribed to
her YouTube channel to see her lip-sync to the divas hits.
Now Jessie Castro, 39, of Orlando, Florida, USA - who has appeared in a
documentary and on US talk shows after her lookalike videos went viral - is preparing
for a full-on festive season, when she will come into her own lip- syncing to the
singer's Yuletide classic, All I Want For Christmas Is You.
And with multi-Grammy award winning Mariah turning 50 this year, launching a new
book this month and releasing an album in October, mum-of-one Jessie is anticipating
a lucrative few months ahead - even though her performing work is just a 'side hustle'
to her current job as a college administrator at Full Sail University in Winter Park,
Florida.

SONDERKONDITIONEN: Satzpreis! New baby cookies (PA Real Life and Nevie-Pie Cakes) *** Mum who bakes hyper-realistic cakes depicting
everything from severed toes to dirty ashtrays
reveals how people are often too disgusted to eat
them
By Harriet Whitehead, PA Real Life
A mum has told of her delight in creating bleeding, severed toes from cookies and baking
revolting cakes with stubbed-out cigarettes stuck into them.
And nothing pleases Natasha Collins more than when people are too disgusted to swallow
her sweet treats.
Natasha, 49, of Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire, said: "I really like that twisting of
expectations - of having a really delicious cookie, but no-one wants to eat it, or they are
revolted by it."
The skilled baker, who is married and has two children, now 16 and 13, who she does not
wish to name, loves making pretty floral cakes too, but admitted: "I also have this darker
sense of humour where I enjoy making things that turn people off."
Her other speciality is confusing people's taste buds by serving up a realistic -looking full
English breakfast - complete with burnt bits and fat bubbles - that turns out to be made
from cookies, or Chinese takeaway noodles rustled up from cake and fondant.
Natasha's strange culinary journey began unexpectedly 12 years ago, when her children
were little.
A trained illustrator and textile designer, who had first studied graphic design at the
University of Northumbria, she found it hard to go back to full -time work while looking
after a pre-schooler and toddler, so started cake-making to earn some extra cash.
She explained: Id always been a baker and started making cakes for birthdays when the
children were young.
They became quite adventurous, but at that point it was just a hobby and to earn a bit of
pocket money, but then it just took off.
I did a lot of traditional style cakes for birthdays, but one day I was trying to do a happy
