Went for lunch with a friend (Heidi Klum) look-a-like yesterday. She was playing the 'ooh - which gorgeous supermodel do I look like game'. Bit boring and predictable as she really does.What a fisher. Anyhoos, I came out as Vic Reeves... not a young one either. Ran to loo to adjust winkle pickers and novelty leggings only to stare into the face of... Vic Reeves. Everywhere I go Vic is staring out at me.Am uncanny spit.
Which celeb do you look like but would rather not?

Fucking Angela Lansbury, since I was 19

LadyVoldemort · 05/04/2013 08:07

Melissa Joan Hart. She looks like a lovely person but I'd much rather look a bit more glamorous!

LadyVoldemort · 05/04/2013 08:09

Anyway, Vic Reeves is cool, embrace it Grin
And fwiw when I was a young emo I was the spit of Noel whathisface with the black hair.

Laeticia Dean aka Sharon from eastenders/touch of Fern Britton in her this morning fat days.

ArtVandelay · 05/04/2013 08:10

Carole Vorderman. She's a bonny woman but her fitness videos and catalogue advertising irritate me. I much preferred her when she did sums on Countdown.

Branleuse · 05/04/2013 08:14

Freddie Mercury IMO

Someone asked me once if I am Imogen Stubbs. I was so flattered until i realised she is now in her 50s and i am - well, not.

We both have bushy eyebrows, otherwise I cannot see it. She is deffo way more attractive than me, even if she is quite alot older!

ScarletLady02 · 05/04/2013 08:18

I'm actually on Fake Faces and A-list Look-a-likes as a Joss Stone look-a-like but I've never had any work. I don't look anything like her now though, my hair is very different.

I did get mobbed in Newquay once years ago and asked for autographs Blush

ArtVandelay · 05/04/2013 08:20

Dame, your 'friend' sounds like a loon.

MrsToddsShortcut · 05/04/2013 08:20

I was once told I looked like the Queen Mother

whitewineintherain · 05/04/2013 08:26

I was once told I looked like Jade Goody.
Now though i'm told I look like a fat Billie piper.

Mimstar · 05/04/2013 08:29

I have been told a few times I look like Anna Paquin when she's blonde.

I'm not convinced.

I've also used to get Jamie Lynn Spears when she was Zoey 101.

mackerella · 05/04/2013 08:31

My mum thinks I look like India Knight, and has continued to tell me this for the last 20 years Sad

I don't look like her at all well maybe just a bit

Feminine · 05/04/2013 08:33

Oh, so many different ones...

None of them very accurate. Grin but they are all very famous.

I should be flattered...

Lorraine Twatting Kelly

ExcuseTypos · 05/04/2013 08:35

I've ebbed told many times that I look like an older Rachel Stevens from SClub.

I don't see myself but will take it as a compliment.

Feminine · 05/04/2013 08:36

Oh, I just remembered a funny one.

My Mum said I look like Gillian Taylforth (sp)

and Marilyn Monroe

You would think she would see me more accurately wouldn't you?

ohforfoxsake · 05/04/2013 08:36

The bloke from Shameless. It's uncanny really.

In my younger days it was Sheena Easton.

Then when I had hair extensions Fergie. (The royal one, not the footy one).

Confused
LydiasLunch · 05/04/2013 08:37

Marilyn Manson.

WheresMyCow · 05/04/2013 08:39

My MIL insists that when my hair is down I look like Nana Mouskouri hopefully when she was younger not now that she is 78 Shock

I have long dark hair and glasses and that is where the resemblance ends!

My DH has been told, more than once, that he looks like Damian Lewis Grin

Barney the dinosaur

BerryLellow · 05/04/2013 08:42

When I was younger I was told I looked like Baby from dirty dancing. Now I just look haggard. :o

HoobleDooble · 05/04/2013 08:44

My friend recently said I could easily be the mother of Sharon Rooney (from My Big Fat Mad Diary). When I was younger I used to get Danni shouted at me, as apparently I looked like Danni Minogue in her Home and Away days, or Morticia Adams (the original Black and White series, not Angelica Houston!)

Minion · 05/04/2013 08:44

When I had long hair and wore thick eyeliner I got Rosie frigging Webster all the time.
Now I've got short hair people say to remind them of Anne Hathaway. Not too shabby, though I look absolutely nowt like her maybe in the teeth pulling scene in les mis
In the morning I look like Bruno mars with his huge quiff.

Piplin · 05/04/2013 08:45

I work with someone who is the female Patrick swayze!
