Meet the Taylor Swift lookalike who can't go anywhere without being approached in the street by fans doing a "double-take" - confusing her for the singer.

June Baker, 36, resembles the global superstar due to her tall and slender frame, signature blonde wavy locks and iconic red lip.

She has even turned her incredible likeness into a career as a Taylor Swift impersonator - attending birthday parties, weddings, and photoshoots.

She says she’s been more in demand than ever, thanks to the singer’s successful Eras tour.

Self-confessed "Swiftie" June, from Boston, Massachusetts, US, said: "I'm definitely a long-time Taylor Swift fan.

"I’ve actually only been to two shows, but I’ve collected bits of merch throughout the years – CDs, t-shirts, clothing items and collectibles like jewellery.

“It's an honour to be compared to her – who wouldn’t want to look like Taylor?

"She’s beautiful - it’s such a compliment.”

June is often mistaken for Taylor Swift when she’s out and about.

She’s been dubbed Taylor Swift’s “Medieval Twin” by the fantasy community after an experience she had at a Medieval Faire in Knoxville, Tennessee.

She said: “I was there visiting a good friend I met on TikTok.

"There was a whole group of us dressed up and we went to dinner after the faire ended, still in costume.

“A couple of girls came up to me a few minutes after we were seated and confessed one of them was convinced I was Taylor - perhaps after shooting a music video or something.

“She confessed she was tearing up and shaken at the idea I might be her and she was so darling and sweet about it.

"I've been getting it a lot in the last year or so because I think she’s just been everywhere and so people are very quick to recognise.

"She's a huge superstar – it’s a whole new level of success."

June says her favourite Taylor Swift tracks are Willow, Wonderland and the lakes – "anything where she touches on mystical, magical things and escapism".

June claims she’s never tried to go out in public and trick people and tries to act with the utmost integrity as she knows how much Taylor cares about her relationship with her fans.

She says people started to notice the resemblance between her and Taylor Swift on Instagram and TikTok - with viewers shocked at just how similar the pair looked.

She decided to capitalise on their stark similarities by starting a business venture as a professional lookalike.

She said: "I do have to be prepared at times to jump on a FaceTime with a potential client who wants to see me before they invest in me coming out there to do a birthday party or something like that.

"The things about Taylor I love, like the way she’ll do her hair or make-up, are things I think any of us might emulate, you know, she’s such an icon.

“But it’s not been this huge transformation. I’ve had bangs on and off since I was little and I’ve always danced, done pageants and played around with hair and make-up.”
