Noel Cruz took and ordinary doll and made a true Angelina Jolie look alike. By using his artistic talent, Cruz duplicated Angelina Jolie's piercing blue eyes and her pouty full lips.
The doll is as seductive as the real Angelina Jolie. Hairstyles are exaggerated as a doll would be, but the resemblance is very striking. The doll sold on eBay recently for $3000.
Implications - Cruz took care to even add the little mole on the Angelina doll's forehead. He also carefully hand-painted the figurine, which must have taken a lot of care and time. The doll featured in the gallery can be seen with flowing, long brown hair and even with a green wig!
