Does anyone ever tell you you look like someone famous or someone else they know?
 
When I was in highschool my classmates used to call me "Blossom" because they said I dressed like her. Remember that show?

I was also said to resemble Tonya Harding in highschool (ugh).

About a year ago some guy said I looked like Tori Spelling. I don't understand that one at all.

I often get "you look like this girl I work with or you look like my cousin".

I've never looked like one, but in junior high my friends said I was liek Rayanne from My So Called Life because I kinda dressed like her and did my hair like her.

Dolly Parton..............:D Yes, really. Ever since High School, even random people in restrooms.

And the funniest part is that the men always think they need to clarify the statement with "just from the neck up". I know my chest isn't SMALL, but I also know it's not as large as hers.

winneythepooh7 06-05-2004 03:13 PM

But I was always told (back then) that I looked like someone from Party of Five... Her real name is Lacey Something. I haven't heard that since I was in 7th grade, though.

That's funny. You know I just started watching re-runs of that show. I forget what channel it's on but it is on cable here in the city on Sat & Sun evening.

I have been told that I resemble a few celebrities. Most recently it's Mary Louise Parker.

PhiPsiRuss 06-05-2004 04:09 PM

I've been told that I look like Lucy Liu.

swissmiss04 06-05-2004 04:34 PM

I have gotten everything from Mena Suvari to Kellie Martin (life goes on, ER). I have twins everywhere. The circulation desk at the library, 12 cheerleading squads around the country, and a few cousins. I suppose if I ever wanted to assume a new identity it would be easy.

Rudey 06-05-2004 04:36 PM

I love how people look nothing like these celebrities and just can't seem to brag enough about how others think they do.

--And I look like Michael Jordan, except whiter, shorter, and with a bigger gambling problem.

Is it really bragging, or something to brag about though? Who would really want to look like White Trash Tonya Harding, Valley-of-Death-Breasts Tori Spelling, or Blossom, with her rather large nose?

Oh, and her name is Lacey Chabert - and she actually is cute, so way to go!

I think I said this in the other thread way back when... but what the heck! I like talkign about myself, I'll say it again.

Lots of people say I look like Nicolle Kidman, especially when I curl my hair.

Cure your hair then! Definitely one to emulate - she's hot. But it's spelled Nicole - not Nicolle!

People used to tell me I look like Nicole Kidman also. We are both pale and have curly red hair and small noses. That's about it. She is much skinnier than I am.

SSS1365 06-05-2004 10:36 PM

Some friends have told me I somewhat resemble Rosario Dawson, some have even said J.Lo (which I really don't agree with). There was also a girl on billboard for Planned Parenthood or something like that, whom people said looked like me.

Mr. SSS told me when we first started dating that my personality reminded him of Cameron Diaz.

UKDaisy 06-05-2004 11:07 PM

I had a few random people tell me I looked like Jessica Simpson. I don't see that at all!!!!!! I thought they were trying to make fun of me, but m y friend was like "no, I think they're being serious." . My hair was curled, and I had my Louis out that day. That was prolly it.

alphaiota 06-05-2004 11:10 PM

BirthaBlue4 06-06-2004 11:56 AM

People always think I'm this random person they know from their street. They'll be like, so how's your sister or something like that, and I'm like, I don't have a sister. Then they act like I'm lyin or something, asking me am I sure. No, I have no idea who I am, I'm lost and insane lol.

valkyrie 06-06-2004 12:46 PM

I used to get Anne Heche and Pink, but only when I had short super-blonde hair, lol.

PhiPsiRuss 06-06-2004 02:08 PM

People also say that I look like Aretha Franklin. A lot.

Now that I think about it, I see the resemblance. Uncanny! :cool:

smiley21 06-06-2004 02:23 PM

i have not only been told that i look like Beyonce, but my boyfriend told me that my skin looks like hers. i will not argue with that!;)

Tom Earp 06-06-2004 02:26 PM

Everyone knows me and say you look like or are you ???

Well, more like just a common face!:p

Optimist Prime 06-06-2004 05:54 PM

I look like the guy from Bare Naked Ladies

AchtungBaby80 06-06-2004 08:04 PM

I was hanging out at a friend's house a few months ago when one of his friends came in and looked at me and went, "Oh, my God!" Apparently I look like a girl they went to high school with who was killed a while back, although I didn't know her so I have no clue. They showed me a picture of her younger sister, who they said looked sort of like her, but I didn't really see any similarities between that girl and myself other than dark hair and dark eyes. It was odd, but I get, "Wow...don't I know you?" at work all the time, so I'm getting used to it. Evidently there's a lot of people out there who look like me!

Senusret I 06-06-2004 09:28 PM

According to others....

When I was young, it was Ralph Carter aka Michael Evans from Good Times.

When I had an Afro, it was Maxwell.

When I started locking my hair, it was Eric Benet from that point on, so much so that it became one of my aliases as an Alpha.

yep, me too. But it's still a nice thing to hear :D

Phasad1913 06-06-2004 10:51 PM

queen latifah...all the time. I'm gettin sick of it.

preciousjeni 06-06-2004 10:54 PM

I don't look like a famous person
 
In fact, my picture is in the "Look at me" thread. BUT, it freaks me out that people are always mistaking me for someone else. Most recently, a woman called out "Jennifer" and that's so close to my name that I turned to look at her. She walked up and started talking to me and I was like, "Do I know you?" She looked at me closer and was like, "OMG! You look JUST like a girl I know!"

WHATEVERZ!
