( ananova.com ) - A Swiss miss who looks just like Paris Hilton has offered to stand in for her on public appearances while she is in prison. Seraina Hartmann, 18, said. "I was always getting people asking for my autograph, ever since I was 15, and I know I look just like her.
"When it was revealed she had to go to prison I was contacted by an agent who said he would be able to get me lots of work while she was inside."
She has already had numerous bookings and is now expecting many more once Paris is serving her sentence. She said: "I am apparently the best Paris double on the market, and I love doing all the appearances.
"I model myself on her, but not too closely, I won't do drink driving, I can't sing, and I won't star in porn films. That would be too much."But I am still impressed by Paris, despite her mistakes. There are lots of millionaires' daughters with money but she really is good at promoting herself. She is a good businesswoman."
Seraina already has several professional shoots behind her including one with top Swiss photographer Andrea Schwarz, who said: "Seraina is a natural. She is really relaxed in front of the camera and has all the Paris moves - she knows exactly what she is doing."
Seraina has a younger sister aged 17 and an older brother aged 23 and said they joined her parents in supporting her decision to take up modelling. She said: "They think it's great that I am trying to make a go of it. I am currently working in a sport shop and I keep very fit but modelling is a lot more fun.
"I have had a lot of offers already - it's difficult to know which to choose. The biggest problem has been making sure my English is good enough, but I am having extra lessons and I don't think it will be a problem."
