Disney princess lookalike lands job in Japan
A budding actress has landed a job at Disney Land in Tokyo because she is the spitting image of a fairy tale princess.
Anna-Marie Kimber recently moved to Westfield after growing up in St Leonards - but the 20-year old is now facing a far bigger move after landing the job in the Far East.
She jets off to Japan later this week to start her six month contract during which she will have to pose for thousands of photographs. Once settled in she will be given a course in basic Japanese and also taught how to sign her characters autograph in the official Disney style.
Anna-Marie said: "I am really looking forward to it. I originally auditioned as a dancer but was invited back to audition for this job because they thought I looked like a disney princess.
"I am going to miss my friends and family but I cannot wait to experience life in Japan and working at Disney Land should be great fun."
It is not all good though. Anna-Marie will be abroad for her 21st birthday and Christmas - although the trainer dancer says that if she can't be at home in 1066 Country there is nowhere she would rather be than Japan.
Something she is looking forward to slightly less though is the food. She said: "I am not sure how much local food I will be eating - I certainly am relishing the prospect of raw fish and sushi."
