Andele Lara, 22, is a student from Boston, Massachusetts who says her staggering resemblance to the Bajan beauty makes it hard for her to step out of the house without being mobbed by screaming Rihanna fans.

If Rihanna ever had a twin sister then it would 22-year-old Andele Lara.

Andele Lara is a student from Boston, Massachusetts who says her staggering resemblance to the Bajan beauty makes it hard for her to step out of the house without being mobbed by screaming Rihanna fans.

She told MailOnline that strangers follow her while going to work and gets fan mail whilst companies also pay her thousands of pounds to endorse their products - making her life not too dissimilar to the Umbrella singer.

“The moment I step out anywhere, everyone starts staring and whispering before I get bombarded by strangers asking to take their photo with me...This happens every day” Lara explained to the site. “I can't go twenty-four hours without hearing Rihanna's name. I know I could happily give up my part-time job and studies to have a career as a Rihanna lookalike.”

The site claims that Andele always felt like the ugly ducking as a child but these current development has prompted Andele to become a full-time Rihanna lookalike.

She explains: 'The comments started in my sophomore year. My friend had a magazine with Rihanna on the cover. He held it up to my face and was like "You look like her! I wasn't really sure. She was glammed up in a magazine and here I was in my school uniform... Personally, I never realized I looked like Rihanna. I do see some resemblance but not as much as everyone else I think.'

But as Rihanna's fame increased, Andele could not escape the comparisons to the star and her day-to-day life changed forever.

Andele is single and dating and now plans on becoming a professional Rihanna lookalike, but says unfortunately she can't sing.
