During her sophomore year Shannon began getting lots of double takes.
Absolute strangers from Manhattan to South Beach would approach her with comments like
"You probably hear this a lot, but do you know whom you look like?" Are you,
"Britney Spears?" Shannon told her mother who said, "Yes, you do." They both
went to talk with one of her modeling agents Remedy Model Management and they
also agreed. With the help of the Remedy Agency they linked her up with several
of the top Look A Like agencies in the New York area. Shannon was very fortunate
through the Remedy Agency to find Elaine Chez of Chez, Inc., who has truly promoted
her and gotten her off to a terrific start in the Look A Like industry. At this time
she feels she should not sign an exclusive agency agreement with any agency until
she gets a total look at the industry in general. The rest is history and since
then she is in total demand and is supported by the best
entertainment agents, modeling agencies, and acting agents in the country.
Shannon says that working as a celebrity Look A Like has truly changed her
life in many ways and opened many doors. She has had the opportunity to double
for BRITNEY on six occasions and is absolutely thrilled about these opportunities.
Working as a Look A Like has allowed her to grow as a model and an actress, work
with the general public as an entertainer, perform and open up as an individual,
to follow her dreams, and best of all be her own boss.
In '02 she performed in 60+ cities on tour.
Shannon has performed electrifying performances for MTV (five different
occasions), doubled for BRITNEY twice for MTV, NY Stock Exchange Corporate Event,
SONY, FORD Motor, MARRIOTT, RUTGERS University, Federated Department Stores,
PEPSI, DISNEY, UNIVERSAL STUDIOS,
NASCAR, IGA, NICKOLODEAN, CABLEVISION, HARDROCK CAFÉ, TAVERN ON THE GREEN,
THE PLAZA HOTEL, HUDSON THEATER, WTC BENEFITS, LAZARUS DEPARTMENT STORES, to name
a few plus she also does private parties, summer camps, malls, grand store
openings, sporting events, charity events and numerous other corporate events.
For the upcoming year she also at present has fifteen signed contracts with
minor league baseball teams around the country. TIME Magazine, WCBS2, FOX NEWS,
Sports Digest, NJ Magazine, WWF Newsletter, ECHOES SENTINEL, ASBURY PARK PRESS
AND THE HOME NEWS have interviewed and followed her with press coverage over
the past year.
In the modeling arena Shannon currently works for TOMMY, MACY’s, LePel
Lingerie, LaPerla, Secrets In Lace, Nick & Nora Inc., XOXO, Oxygen Inc., Nine
West, The Pink Slip, Candies, MET-RX, Hawaiian Tropic and many other large
and small corporations. In the future, Shannon hopes to continue in the
modeling and entertainment industry.
Shannon has just signed a major contract ('03) with Wilhelmina for modeling,
acting and talent.This is a major step in her career.
She has just submitted a demo tape by
special request to a major recording label.
Shannon currently resides in Warren, NJ and does modeling and acting jobs
when she is not working as a Look A Like or attending school. She absolutely
adores Britney and refuses to take any work that would be unprofessional in any
way. Shannon says she will never forget her roots or all of the people who
have helped bring her this far in such a short time. In her off-time she does
quite a bit of charity and volunteer work.
Keep Shannon in mind when planning events such as: Corporate Holiday Parties,
Trade Shows, Annual Events, Fund Raisers, Private Parties, Birthday Parties,
Bat/Baz Mitzvahs, and Charity Events!! She will definitely WOW your guests and
make your event whether large or small truly memorable!
