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?

Velma Dinkley :) i can accept that

I used to get Libby from neighbours and then sporty spice (even got asked if I was her once in a petrol station when at the height of their fame. As if I would be driving a battered old sierra in south London if I was!)
Most recently I've had Toni colleti (hopefully not Miriam's wedding style) and the most recent and most insulting....Miranda!!!!
Don't really see how any of these people look like each other so not sure how I get told them all!!!

I used to get Gail Porter (during her projected naked on Westminster days). People used to actually ask me if I was her, we are both from the same town so same accent too!

My (female) boss used to get Boy George Grin

Iused to look like scully from the x files but a friend told me a couple of years ago it is now meryl Streep........

sapphirestar · 05/04/2013 09:39

I've been told a few times I look like Drew Barrymore! Can't see it myself but could be a lot worse! Smile

fancyabakeoff · 05/04/2013 09:40

A fat Freddy Kreuger

TreeLuLa · 05/04/2013 09:41

Dawn French.

Luckily I love her so that is ok Grin

ENormaSnob · 05/04/2013 09:43

Katie melua

Or Imogen Thomas Hmm

Lambzig · 05/04/2013 09:43

I used to get told Michelle Pfeiffer, but not for a while. Obviously it must be her that's ageing so horribly we no longer look alike Smile

CadleCrap · 05/04/2013 09:44

I used to get Demi Moore from the Ghost era [preen]

Now I get Hailey from Corrie [not quite so preen]

M0naLisa · 05/04/2013 09:44

DH said I have a look of Helen Baxendale.

DH on the other hand could get work as a David Walliams double ;-) everywhere he goes people say 'ooh you look like David.....'
DH says 'yeah I know before they even finish their sentance Wink

David Walliams is fit!! Grin

Once (only once mind) the class of foreign sts I was teaching were all whispering to eachother "ask her, go on"
Turns out they'd spent the term convinced I was Hugh Grant's sister - This was about the time of 4 weddings.
So a female Hugh Grant!
Although now Fabio Capello (ex England Football Manager)

AThingInYourLife · 05/04/2013 09:46

Danny DeVito

M0naLisa · 05/04/2013 09:46

Also been told I have a look of a very young Cher too Hmm

Lambzig · 05/04/2013 09:47

Oh are we doing DHs. DH looks like a chubbier Alexander Armstrong.

Wishfulmakeupping · 05/04/2013 09:50

RenterNomad · 05/04/2013 09:51

No-one sees me any more; I have a screen for a face. Sad

goodjambadjar · 05/04/2013 09:54

I've been told Philippa Forrester and Carol Vorderman. I don't see how they're similar at all but I was quite pleased with the Phillipa one!
DP has been told the guy from American pie who does Stifler's mum or a heavier Justin Timberlake in the sexyback video. I agree with the 2nd one! Grin

FreudiansSlipper · 05/04/2013 09:56
