A former cosmetic rep who swapped make-up for a career as a Marilyn Monroe lookalike has pocketed a staggering $4million (£2,630,000) as a full-time doppelgänger. Blonde bombshell, Susan Griffiths, from California, USA, bears a striking resemblance to the iconic movie star and the likeness has taken her around the globe - even landing her a role in Quentin Tarantino film, Pulp Fiction. Susan, 55, who can charge from $1500 to $4000 (£980 to £2630) for a single appearance, said: “Thanks to Marilyn, I've had a fabulous life. I love my job and feel so blessed.
