Has anyone ever said you look like a celebrity? If so, who ?

[Horse with no Name]

Post a pic if you can.:)

When I was little, I was told I looked like Donny Osmond (used to really piss me off).
When I was a teenager, I was told I looked like Ali McGraw.
As I am older, I was told I looked like Sean Young, but I don't see it.
Y'all judge.




This is horse,lol.

[DS1]

1. When I was a bit slimmer

[Horse with no Name]

10. Nice.

:wow:

[progmom]

33. i can see that

:hi:

[redqueen]

99. I need pics sent to my PM

just for research purposes, of course. :7

[greatauntoftriplets]

2. You must be a hottie!!!

Since your photo contained an illegal code.

Can you retry?

:hi:

[greatauntoftriplets]

3. Saw the retry....

Very nice.

No photos of me on the net. My avatar isn't me, but Bobby Sands of the Irish hunger strikers.

[Horse with no Name]

9. Well a friend of mine had this one on her website

So it was already floating around in cyberspace,lol.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

4. Tom Selleck.

[Nikia]

5. No

I don't look like any celebrities at all. That is one reason that I think that I look like a freak.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

Don't say that about yourself.

:pals:

[GreenPartyVoter]

6. Karen Valentine, but mainly from

a 3/4 or profile view.

[Ksec]

7. Ive been told I resemble Mr Ed

The horse.

[GreenPartyVoter]

11. Face or voice? *g*

[Ksec]

18. face. Im horsey lookin like Jerry Seinfeld

My Momma still loves me though. :)

[Horse with no Name]

8. I can't get pics side by side

Sorry.
This is my new experiment for today,lol.

[ofrfxsk]

12. I've been told I look just like Angelina Jolie

then I wake up.
Seriously, I look like me.

[Horse with no Name]

16. I'd love to look like Angelina

if only for a night.;)

[ofrfxsk]

20. Me too.

She is absolutely gorgeous. One of the most beautiful women I've ever seen.

[ContraBass Black]

13. On the night this picture was taken,

They told me that I:



look like

[GreenPartyVoter]

22. I can see that (But I think you're cuter, the bottom guy looks

so intense that he's almost mean?? :shrug:)

[ContraBass Black]

87. Well, I smiled for my picture, which is unusual for me

And no, I don't wear my hat like that. A girl repositioned it that way because she thought it was cuter.

[alittlelark]

14. Goldie Hawn.... many, many times

I can post a link to pic's last summer at a (far too rich) friend's estate in Kauai...

I'm the 'Gina'

http://www.vegetarianveal.com/k2/

http://www.vegetarianveal.com/k3/

http://www.vegetarianveal.com/k4/

[evlbstrd]

48. I can see that.

You're very pretty.

[alittlelark]

50. The 'DU with a view's' are my favorites

Our friend bought the property that Jurrasic Park was filmed on. He's a great guy who came into WAY too much $$$$ way too soon. The pic's are on 1/10th of the property.... the big waterfalls have killed multiple people over a short period of time... they are off-limits.

[evlbstrd]

53. Whoa.

Glad you made it out alive!
So, is the too-rich guy going nuts with the money? I've seen that happen. Judging from the land purchase, it looks that way.

[alittlelark]

55. He was my Hubbys roommate at Stanford Buisness School.

He is a FASCINATING guy who I (as an old Anth student) consider to be a 'breed to come'.

He used to have the coolest girlfriends.... Then he met one BIMBO...now all his girlfriends are AVAILABLE on the internet :cry:

[evlbstrd]

56. Wow. My brother made a lot of money

and seemed to change him. He's always voted Republican.

[alittlelark]

This friend was raised POOR... dirt poor.

He is now going to the Dark Side.

[evlbstrd]

60. Our family was also poor.

Coming into a lot of money suddenly can really screw people up.
Not that I wouldn't mind trying it.

[alittlelark]

62. I wish he had not tried and been sooo successful....

He used to be Waaay cool.....now I'm not sure how well I know him.

[evlbstrd]

63. Looks like you got a great vacation out of it.

Does your husband talk to him often? Maybe you can lure him back.

[alittlelark]

64. He's always there. We have NO desire to 'milk' him.

He is a really cool guy who is a bit confused now.... all of his girlfriends were COOL until a few years ago.

We can only hope that he will come back into the light....

[evlbstrd]

65. I didn't mean to suggest any sort of milking. Sorry.

And I hope you can bring him back, too.

[Coastie for Truth]

15. People tell my wife she looks like Barbara Boxer

This is Senator Boxer - not my wife
<>

and they tell me that I look like Hemingway - this is Hemingway, not me

<>

[Ksec]

21. I think BBoxer looks pretty hot

congrats

[alittlelark]

68. BB is my senator and she is so hot.... she ROCKS!!!!!!!

:yourock: :headbang: :yourock: :headbang: :yourock:

[merh]

17. In my younger days, I was told I looked like

Debra Winger :shrug:

No photos available.

[bertha katzenengel]

19. I grew up being mistaken for Jodie Foster.

[alittlelark]

29. You DO look like Jodie Foster!

She's great! She and I are almost the same age, and I worshipped her as a kid (I even ordered rum-raisin ice cream!).

[Horse with no Name]

31. Wow you do.

Amazing resemblance.

[Ksec]

35. I need some girl scout cookies.

Got any for sale?
:)

[Horse with no Name]

36. I had long hair and my mom got one of those "Trim Combs"

Remember those razor blades that used to saw your hair off?
She tried to trim my hair and I ended up with a pixie haircut.
I have really big brown eyes, "chiclet" teeth, and dark hair.
I was told by everyone I looked like Donny Osmond.
It used to infuriate me,lol.

[ofrfxsk]

37. That's amazing!

You look so much like her! What were you seperated at birth?

[bertha katzenengel]

77. Separated at birth? I don't think so... you be the judge

Jodie (compliments of Annie Leibovitz)


Yours Truly (compliments of Mrs. V.)

[redqueen]

101. Stunning shot of Jodie...

Thanks, bertha...

*fans herself*

[bertha katzenengel]

103. Isn't it though?

I've *admired* that photo for years.

[swag]

41. Cool.

Like in Courtship of Eddie's Father and Alice Doesn't Live Here Any More.

I can see you at eight years old, walking down the street of Tucson with your classmate and your guitar cases, when you spring "Wanna get high on ripple?" on him.

[Redstone]

23. In the country & western bars, when I had a beard,

I got told that I resembled Randy whatsisname, the singer for the band Alabama.

But I don't think that was accurate, especially given that he's Cherokee and I'm Pennacook. And we don't sing near the same, either (he's better, which is why he's famous and I'm not).

Redstone

[Cornjob]

27. Wearing shades... I look like Mike Ditka!

Several waitresses have made that mistake.

Although Ditka must be about 5 inches taller!

[Dastard Stepchild]

24. As she gets more popular....Maggie Gyllenhaal...

I'll see if I can round up a pic.

[ofrfxsk]

26. Here ya go

[Dastard Stepchild]

30. That's a great one.....

now I shoud try to find one of myself. :)

[ofrfxsk]

34. Well, she's not exactly a household name.

Just trying to help. :)

[ofrfxsk]

28. oops... That was really big. Sorry!

[mvd]

32. Great one to look like

I'm sure we have some Maggie or Jennifer Connelly (she is a good weight now - I was worried for a while, but it seemed to be just stress) look-alikes, and there are many pretty women at DU..

I look pretty unique, but my mom said I looked somewhat like Fred Savage when I was younger.

[Dastard Stepchild]

42. I had the biggest crush on Fred Savage...

I would consider that a compliment :)

[GOPisEvil]

78. I can see that.

Now I know why I like your pictures so much. :)

[Dastard Stepchild]

100. Oh... listen to you :)

And hey... I was intermittently on and off DU for a while there (work and school became unbelievably busy)... how have you been? :)

[KaliTracy]

25. meryl streep -- for years (and sometimes still)

(I used to waitress (over 10 years) , and interacted with many people)

I'm not sure I've ever "seen" it in me -- or in my pix. And she's several years older than me! (She was born in 49, I was born in 65)

But here's one from November of 2001.

[A HERETIC I AM]

38. Robert DeNiro

When i grow my beard out like this, i've been told i look just like him. I wish i had his acting talent.

[swag]

39. I never know the celeb they're talking about when that happens.

Or if I do recognize the celeb they're talking about, I pretend that I don't know who they're talking about.

I try to discourage that kind of talk. Personal quirk, maybe.

[Lady President]

40. I've been told Alicia Silverstone or Drew Berrymore

Personally, I think it's all based on how I'm wearing my hair because that's the only thing in common. Here are some pix:

Alicia Silverstone:


Drew Berrymore:


Me:

[BikeWriter]

47. You're damned cute, BikeWriter said it.

[liberal43110]

43. Amanda Peterson

A B- or C-list actress from the 80s. Most notably, she was in the teen movie "Can't Buy Me Love." At the same time, she was in the TV series "A Year in the Life," which was the first TV show to deal with HIV/AIDS.

I was in high school at the time (don't have pics from then, only current ones--early 30s) and EVERYBODY said I reminded them of her. People I knew well, random people, and my mom.

No one has said I reminded them of a celebrity since. :)

[BikeWriter]

44. You're lovely. If I were twenty years, no, five years younger, you'd...

be in a whole lot of trouble. :)

[Redstone]

52. But you're NOT twenty years younger, are you;

and neither am I, dammit.

But we can dream, hoss, can't we?

Redstone

[BikeWriter]

73. ROFL! That's for sure, Pard. :-)

[graywarrior]

45. My entire life, til this day. It never ends.

[Horse with no Name]

58. Is that you?

You look like Adrienne Barbeau to me (not sure if I spelled that correctly).

[ghostsofgiants]

46. Well, before I dreaded my hair...

I got compared to Jeremy Taggart, the drummer from Our Lady Peace, quite a bit, eause of the hair and glasses.

[evlbstrd]

49. When I was younger, George Carlin.

More recently, Chuck Norris.

Photo is from a meetup. Everybody got caught either eyes closed or mouth open. I'm the one in the grey cap.

[PittPoliSci]

70. i'd say more like iggy pop with a beard

iggy and the stooges rule!

[Wapsie B]

51. When I was a little lighter..........

Bun E. Carlos of Cheap Trick

[LibraLiz1973]

54. I used to get this one at least once a week

An actress named Maureen Flannigan- she was the star of a show in the 80's called "Out of this World". Characters name was Evie. And when I say I was told I looked like her- I mean, people asked if I was her. It used to annoy the crap out of me! lol.


On edit: I never thought I looked like her, but in the collage of photos below, I can see it in the bottom left one. I have a picture of me that looks like we could be twins.



Evie


me

[BamaGirl]

57. Mare Winningham

:shrug: I don't see it, but ok lol. I do think she looks a lot like one my aunts though.



eta: Mare

[evlbstrd]

59. And while watching the first LOTR movie

with a friend and our sons, when Gandalf appeared, friend nudged me and said, "That's you."

[elshiva]

61. I look like:

Michael Moore:


Andrea Dworkin:

[SarahB]

66. allegedly

Let's see Blair from the Facts of Life (got that one since my early teens :eyes:), Belinda Carlisle, Natalie Maines, and recently I've been getting a lot of Reese Witherspoons. People are always telling me I look like someone else or someone they know or something along those lines. I've got that standard, symmetrical face, blonde WASP thing goin' on.

(Blair was the blonde one- God I hate admitting to this, but it's the one I get most often)


Belinda


Natalie (in the middle and yeah, bite me freepers)


Reese


As for me, we've all seen enough of the real me, but if anyone is really desperate to see me just one more time, I'm in the Demopedia gallery.

[Wapsie B]

71. I'd say you look most like Natalie Maines.

But I know people can have different looks too.

*sigh*

[Sannum]

67. Everyone from...

Claire Danes to Allison Hannigan to Gillian Anderson to Princess Madeliene of Sweden.

I don't think I look like anyone but myself.

[PittPoliSci]

69. i look like the Drummer from the Killers

him


me


here's a more recent one where i think i look more like him with glasses, although i'm usually not so clean-shaven.

[flaminbats]

72. Tom Petty..and everywhere I go some jerk screams FREEEFALLiNG!!!!!!!!

:banghead: otherwise I would be a huge fan! ;(

[Qanisqineq]

74. Tonya Harding

at least that's what my grandma said back in the day of the whole Harding knee-hitting drama

[Lumily]

75. Delta Burke

I don't have any pictures to show.:(

Back when Designing Women was a big hit(10-15 years ago), there wasn't a week that went by that someone didn't ask if I was Delta Burke.

[Qanisqineq]

76. Welcome to DU, Lumily!

I almost called you Delta Burke because I had that stuck in my head after reading your post. :D

[GreenPartyVoter]

88. Lucky you; she's gorgeous! :^) Welcome to DU! *wave*

[Squeech]

79. Jerry Garcia

Just because I have long hair and a big unkempt beard with more than a touch of grey. I get this even from people who don't know I play the guitar.

But that's better than the comparison I used to get: Charlie Manson.

The best was when I was in Thailand, 20 years ago. A guy stopped me on the street and said, "You look like that guy in the movie!" And I was trying to think what movie there was that had a hippie derelict character in it, while he was groping for the name, and suddenly it came to him: "Jesus Christ!" Thailand is 95% Buddhist; to them, Jesus is "that guy in the movie!"

(Thai people in general were fascinated by my beard; hardly anybody in Thailand grows a beard, in part because most of them can't-- they don't have enough facial hair-- but they're also fairly conventional people, although they're not horrified by cultural diversity. I also got compared to Hanuman, the monkey warrior in the Ramayana.)

[redqueen]

102. haaahahaahaha

:rofl:

Thanks for sharing that story... that's precious. :D

[Mutley]

80. Some people have said I look like Karen Allen

:shrug: Is it true?




I don't really see it, but......

[Shell Beau]

81. People always tell me I look like

the Olsen twins. Mary Kate to be more specific. I am 26 so I take it as a compliment to look like an 18 year old, but now they dress like hobos. I've also been told Jennifer Aniston by a few people but my family says I don't. Oh well. My family and friends and lots of other people have said the Olsen twins so I'll go with that.

[ProfessorGAC]

82. Groucho Marx

And it's correct. I do look like him. My wife even bought me an antique ventriloquist dummy of Groucho and put him in a little wingback chair. So, in my rec room, i've got a "mini-me".
The Professor

[Magrittes Pipe]

83. No.

I am a hideous monster! :cry:

[northzax]

84. I get this

only very faint, but out voices are similar I hear.

[kick-ass-bob]

85. Kirk Cameron and Tom Hanks have been mentioned over and over

when I (and they) were younger. I saw the KC thing, but not the Tom Hanks.

:shrug:

[AllegroRondo]

86. My wife says I look like Alton Brown

He has a show on the Food Network.

[Feathered Fish]

89. Milla Jovovich

But I'm not nearly as glamorous.

[SKKY]

90. The picture on the right bears a resembalance to Terri Hatcher...

[Lannes]

91. When I was a kid

A young Robert Redford.

[Jessica]

92. Just two.

Thora Birch & Lucy.

[maddiejoan]

93. My friends say Joan Jett.

That's WHY they're my friends.

[thecai]

94. Mariah Carey

People don't usually say I look like her, except in a few photos, but when they see Mariah Carey they say "wow! She looks like ___" (my name).
I'm not posting any pictures here to give fuel to freepers.

[booley]

95. Keifer Sutherland and Jack Black

Who look nothing a like.

Yeah, I didn't get it either.



and here's me (separated by a few years...)

[jswordy]

96. This is so strange, but I have had a BUNCH of folks around here...

call me Steven Siegal. I get that fairly frequently in stores.

:shrug:

[Hugin]

97. Uh... Well... Andy Kaufman...

Seriously, I get that all the time.

Why couldn't I have taken after my Dad? People used to
stop him in the streets thinking he was Rod Taylor and
then as he aged it was Rex Harrison.

And Mom always got the Elizabeth Taylor treatment...

Dang, now I'm going to have to check into my birth
certificate again.

=/

[redqueen]

98. I was told I look like Alanis Morissette.

Dunno how accurate that is, though.

I can see the resemblance to Sean... in your eyes and nose... and a little in the jawline...

[enigmatic]

104. Bruce Willis, all the time...

My wife says we could be twins; I suppose there are worse people to be compared to, though..

[Lorien]

105. Kathleen Turner, Mira Sorvino

(her father Paul Sorvino told me that I reminded him of her). I got Daryl Hannah and Meridith Baxter when I was younger-but I don't think those two look much alike!
