Mariah Carey lookalike sees income soar 150% after £8,000 plastic surgery

A Mariah Carey lookalike claims her bookings soar by 150% over Christmas - as fans wowed by the pop diva's twin book her to sing 'All I Want For Christmas' to them. Suellen Carey was first told of her resemblance to the 'All I Want For Christmas' star more than 12 years ago when she started her gender transition journey.

But the 35-year-old only decided to cash in on her looks in 2019 after being invited to perform as a lookalike at a party. The Brazilian-born performer then splashed out a whopping £8,716 on plastic surgery to look even more like her idol and attract more fans.

The influencer underwent two boob jobs, a rhinoplasty, liposuction and a brachioplasty to reshape her arms in pursuit of the chart-topper's curvy body. Her investment seems to have paid off as she claims to have seen a huge boost in her bookings - when she expects to do five events a week and pocket a whopping £15,000.
