Meet Derrick Barry who has made a fortune as a Britney Spears impersonator ….


Derrick a 31 year old is one of the world’s most successful Britney look-alike, despite been a man.. He said he shares  some similar features  such as same chiseled abs, blond flowing locks, and pretty as the singer, but incredibly reveals how it all voiced down to hard work rather than any sort of plastic surgery.
He has so far made about a whopping $500,000, thanks to his unpromising career…. Derrick in his words said “it was on Halloween in 2003, after moving to Los Angeles, first began to realize not only was a huge fan of Britney – but also looked like her too.

 ‘Even before I dressed up as her for Halloween a few people had told me we had similar faces,’ tells Derrick, who came out to his family as being gay when he was 21. ‘But that night when I put on my costume, a khaki skirt and bra-style top like the outfit she wore in the I’m A Slave 4 U video, it was like I became her. My friend did my make-up and I wore a wig and when I turned to look in the mirror, my jaw dropped and I remember saying: “I am her”.

He eventually met his idol, who was astonished and could believe the resemblance, it was that moment Derrick thought he could build a career out of being Britney spears’ double, of which he said and he is making it big. He said the more money he makes, the more he spends on costumes and make ups, and has a hard time with daily routine, trying to keep in shape just as his idol.It’s an everyday job keeping up as Britney, he said..
