Aliso Viejo Woman to Walk in Billionaire's Shoes

Aesthetician who wanted to be in Richard Branson's shoes gets her wish--but with a twist.

Aliso Viejo aesthetician Shannon Smith will have some big shoes to fill--size 10.5--when she wears Virgin airlines owner Richard Branson's Adidas for 24 hours, according to the Orange County Register.

Branson saw Smith's tweet that she'd like to be in his shoes for just one day. A while later he had a pair of his limited-edition shoes delivered to her. She has to wear them for 24 hours or send them back.
