Her striking resemblance to Angelina Jolie turns heads wherever she goes.

But Scottish student Chelsea Marr, 24, has turned down the chance of a glamorous life of modelling – in favour of working as a recruitment manager.

Her similarity to the 40-year-old Hollywood star, who is married to Brad Pitt, has seen her take the internet by storm.

Her Instagram account has 56,000 followers, with hundreds liking and commenting on her pictures. 

Friends describe her as shy, and she said in a recent Facebook post that she is just a 'normal girl' who happens to look like the A-list beauty.

She also revealed she is not a model but works as an operations manager for an oil and gas recruitment company in Aberdeen.

She wrote: 'Thank you so much to those who took the time to write those articles about me, they were all so kind, too kind in fact.

'I am extremely flattered to be compared to the amazing Angelina Jolie!' 

When one woman offered her a modelling job, she replied: 'Trust me you don't want me modelling for your shows, I am 5ft 2in, I will end up tripping up and ruining your dresses.' Miss Jolie is 5ft 7in.

Miss Marr admits that she has had lip fillers, an operation on her nose after it was broken, and breast augmentation taking her from an A cup to a B or C cup.
