Me: A shorter, fatter Rachel Weisz

(Yes I'm bored. Yes it's been done before - in fact I think by me about two years ago!)

Andi McDowell apparently (groundhog day) I cant see it myself, but my brother insists!

I've had Sarah Lancashire and Lauren Laverne. Three guesses which I prefer Wink

Oh and my DD (who is only 4!!!) gets Sophie Dahl ALL the time. Unfortunately she doesn't get her looks from me. What type of person comments on a 4 year old's resemblance???

DH reckons I look like a cross between Bree van der kamp and Erica from Being Erica.

It think he's being very kind.

He is also visually impaired...

Shorter fatter Uma Thurman, I've been told so by many people (well not the shorter fatter part, but I'm sure they're thinking).

babyicebean · 15/09/2011 10:59

According to a child in the doctors I look like Rapunzel - something to do with having waist length hair

I have had a couple of Americans suggest I look like Sarah Palin.

I used to be compared to Princess Diana, in her (and my!) heyday.

Recently, Natasha Kaplinsky. Not sure if I'm all that delighted, to be honest!

NanBullen · 15/09/2011 11:05

madmomma · 17/09/2011 22:04

A fat, tired Katy Perry

whatever17 · 18/09/2011 00:01

Kathy Bates from Misery - when it came out. I look worse now.

More like Rolf Harris, without the musical talent.

TooMuchJD · 18/09/2011 00:55

Get mistaken for Sue Perkins, it's the dark hair & glasses.

mightusethread · 18/09/2011 01:00

The woman out of No Doubt... but I don't. Hmm I am MUCH better looking :o

mathanxiety · 18/09/2011 05:12

Anni Frid from Abba when she was young ('the other one')
Nigella Lawson if I were a bit better endowed (and if she had blue eyes or if mine were brown, plus she cooks with more enthusiasm). DD4 thought the photo on the cover of 'Nigella Bites' was me [bless].
Ann Margret.
Meryl Streep with darker hair.

I think I look more like my granny.
DD1 gets Nicole Kidman, and Mia Farrow when very young with the pixie haircut. Envy

Proudnscary · 18/09/2011 08:03

Ooh resurrected!

Envy @ Ani Frid. She was an underrated beauty IMO.

If we're on to DDs mine looks like Hermione Granger/Emma Watson when she was young. Gorgeous but with the biggest, wildest hair.

Oh and this morning I look like Christopher Biggins.
