To be pissed off with my celebrity look-a-like?

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?

I get told I look like Meg from Family Guy :/

A lot.

Bad days- Anneka Rice

Good days - some woman on a Tena lady advert ( so my kindly chum tells me.....)

SanctiMOM, you are Sidney Poitier lookalike too? We are totally twins. Very, very pretty twins Grin.

Just made DP do it... He apparently looks like Danny Glover, Steven Spielberg (are he and I also twins?), Matthew Perry, Richard Gere and Michael Douglas. Also Tara Reid and Tyra Banks Grin.

my close friend swears I look like Kirstie Allsopp, I think she needs to get her eyesight tested as the only thing we may have in common is perhaps a dress size (debateable) but I am a completely different race to Kirstie Allsopp.

I used a lookalike app on my phone and was told I look like Woody Allen Confused

My DP found it hilarious and posted it all over FB Hmm

cheesesarnie · 06/04/2013 23:43

dp says i look like princess fiona- when she was an ogre.

I get Jamie Lee Curtis and have done for years, from multiple sources. I've never once been able to see it for myself though. For a start I have extremely large curly hair...

SleepOhHowIMissYou · 08/04/2013 17:20

I change my hair a lot and have been compared to/mistaken for:
80's = Kim Wilde :)
90's = Anna Friell Grin
00's = Jennifer Saunders Hmm
10's = Sarah Millican :(

Father Time's a cruel mo-fo

Once was told I look like J-lo, obv I have a huge arse I'm drunk

Mousefinkle · 07/02/2015 23:03

I've had Anna Paquin, Kelly Osbourne and Brooke Shields (in her younger days). I don't see a resemblance to any of them, at all. One guy also said I looked like Liza Minnelli in Chicago Confused. None of them look alike so quite where people get it from I do not know...

Binkybix · 07/02/2015 23:05

I got Rachel Weisz which I was delighted by, until it was qualified with the words 'you know, a normal version.' Took the shine off it slightly

FindoGask · 07/02/2015 23:07

I did one of those internet "see which celebrity you most resemble" tests once and it said I was 97% Eric Bana, which was interesting, as I'm not a man.

Some people I know in real life have said I look a bit like Tamsin Grieg. I'll take that.

Allthelittlefoxes · 07/02/2015 23:08

On a good day, Vivian Leigh, on a bad day Claire Grogan (Gregory's girl) or so I've been told Confused

FarFromAnyRoad · 07/02/2015 23:12

Seriously zombie thread ffs. Are you too -stupid- pissed to start a new thread of your own fatlegs?

sosix · 07/02/2015 23:13

Louise Rednapp (now a fat version)

FarFromAnyRoad · 07/02/2015 23:14

Stupid strikethrough fail Blush

sosix · 07/02/2015 23:14

Farfrom play nicely please!

Years ago I was told I looked like a young Audrey Hepburn. Now, not so much.

Also, 10 years ago ish, a little girl maybe about 10, kept looking at me, when I spoke to her she wouldn't answer. Her mum later told me her daughter thought I looked like Sophie Ellis-Bextor. When I told friends, without exception, they all laughed. Angry

ghostinthecanvas · 07/02/2015 23:18

Oooft. Farfrom. Bang out of order. Thread like this can be restarted any time.

chrome100 · 07/02/2015 23:21

In my 20s people said I looked like Sophie Ellis Bextor. They don't say it any more Hmm

BellMcEnd · 07/02/2015 23:23

Mrs Merton Hmm

squoosh · 07/02/2015 23:26

Errrr what does it matter if it's a zombie thread? It's hardly one with time sensitive information.

Macsmurray · 07/02/2015 23:29

Apparently I'm a cross between Jasin Biggs and David Baddiel. I have had close family members tell be so and my GF doesn't disagree ??

CrapBag · 07/02/2015 23:29

MrsTyrionLannister did you take that as a compliment? I got told I look like Velma and took it as a huge insult, changed my glasses and grew my hair.

I've also been told by 2 people that I look like Audrey Hepburn (I WISH)

I posted a photo on here once and was told there was a hint of Myleen Klass.

cazzmags · 07/02/2015 23:30

I was sometimes told I looked like Chrissie Hynde of The Pretenders. Back in the day I thought this was quite cool until the day I saw an article about her entitled 'The ugliest woman in pop'. Hmm
