To ask what famous person you have been told you look like

[oreshina]

Over the years been told:
Natalie Portman - happy about this
Hilary Swank - not so happy
Natalie Wood - had to Google her
Someone once asked for my autograph when I was 17...they thought I was Billie Piper 🤔

In my absolute heyday... (certainly not now as my username confirms) I walked past a bus stop and I heard a teenage boy whisper to his mate "she looks like Kelly Brooke".

Ooh ,Natalie Wood in 'Gypsy' was stunning OP. I'd be so flattered, also always wanted dark hair. When in my 20's Princess Diana (similar build & hair probably). Nowadays, Cybill Shepherd when she was younger ( in tge show 'Moonlighting' with Bruce Willis).

How can you look like Natalie Wood and Billie Piper

I've been told Rachel Johnson.
Hmm. I suppose it's not her brothers or her dad.

Liv Tyler, by several people. This obviously hugely delights me

Fearne cotton a few times

Sophie Ellis Bexter

I don't have one but somebody once told my mother she looked like Kathy Bates.

Siouxsie

As a child, Myra Hindley
As an adult, Rebel Wilson

Momma Cass
Go google.

Naomi Watts but mostly Nicole Kidman. Pretty happy with those!

Katie Rabett - she was an 80s IT girl type/ model - that was back when I was a teenager, rather liked that!

In my 20s I once got told Bette Midler - not impressed with that at all.

In more recent years I've had Jackie Collins, Nigella, Jenna Coleman and Mila Kunis.

I don't think I look like any of them!

I used to be told I looked like Mary Hopkins, but that would've been around 50 years ago.

At various times, Princess Diana, Madonna, Gillian Anderson, Amy Poehler, and Beverley D’Angelo (by Graham Norton).

Jodie Foster
Tina Fey

When I was younger - young Brooke Shields, Kate Winslet.

More recently - Nigella Lawson, Katy Perry.

Nana Mouskouri or Saffy from Ab Fab at various ages

When I was much younger and slimmer I got Jordin Sparks quite a few times. I think she's pretty, but I look nothing like her. I'd like to think I look like Meghan Markle, but fat chance 😂

The American actress Helen Hunt ( in that 1990’s sitcom Mad About You). I can see the resemblance as well, it’s the pointy nose

Kathy Burke!

Had a boss who used to call me Leslie. My name's Karen. Had to ask him one day how the hell he got Leslie out of Karen. It was because he thought I looked like Leslie Caron, who was an actress. (I don't think I look anything like her by the way)

Natalie Portman ( I definitely don’t)
Anne Hathaway (probably the hair)
Helen Flanagan (from a few people but I can’t see it)
Taylor swift (have absolutely no idea what the correlation would be)

I used to get told an awful lot that I look like a curvy Elizabeth Hurley and now I frequently get nigella Lawson.

Why do people never say

Bella Emberg
Kathy Staff
Princess Mary Adelaide

???

In my youth - Gillian Anderson.

These days - Mick Hucknall 😂
