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 🤔

When I was younger people used to say I looked like Gabriela Sabatini, I was even stopped by someone once when I walking along the road and asked if I was her

Carol decker when About 17/18....i think that was the hair

Now jamie lee curtis

Helena Christensen
Katie Holmes
Cameron Diaz
Martine McCutcheon!!

Susan Sarandon apparently

Quite a few years ago I was at a Miss England final and I was asked by 2 separate people if I was Miss Englands little sister. We were chatting to her later on and made a joke about people saying it. Her response was 'Oh, well done you!' ??!!?? I didnt mention to her that I was 2 years older than she was

FWIW I didnt think we looked alike at all I just thought it was a very strange response!

I used to get Victoria Beckham back in my 20s.
More recently, a young kid in the supermarket pointed at me and shouted “look, there’s Mummy Pig”. I was heavily pregnant at the time!

Jessie Wallace (Kat - Eastenders)

Emma stone.
The ginger hair and freckles apparently !

I’ve been told a few times that I look like Jane Asher when she was younger. I don’t think we’ve aged similarly though (I’m fatter than her).

Ive been told a few times that I look like a young Audrey Hepburn, exclusively by over 70's so maybe their eyesight wasn't what it was.

On my honeymoon in Asia some people though I was Angelina Jolie. Deeply flattering! I was tall and thin with v long dark hair. As a tour guide in China said to me, "we think you all look the same!" 😂

Early twenties I was told a couple of times Claudia schiffer- I cant see it
Through my twenties and thirties - Melinda messenger - only resemblance is my hair And smallish nose
More recently holly willoughby.

Now Claudia, Melinda and holly are not alike. I’m hoping I’m somewhere in between 😂

Bloody bjork 🙄

Kelly Brooke
"Kelly Kapowksi" from Saved by the Bell
Amber Heard (Do NOT agree)
Marilyn (I effin wish - it was just my makeup)

And my favourite:
"You look like the girl in twilight"

• which one? - "....All of them"

When I was a lot younger I was often told I looked like Amanda Barrie. I actually saw her one day (in London). She was so pretty with huge eyes. Couldn't see the likeness myself.

Victoria Wood 😀

Sandra Bullock
Kristen Scott Thomas
Posh Spice

I look nothing like any of them but weirdly had people trying to take my photo on holiday because they thought I was posh spice - what she was doing in a three star hotel in Spain is anyone's guess.

Oh yes, as a teenager Suzanna Hoff from the Bangles (I think it was the perm) 😂

On a good day Miriam Margolyes (as she is in real life - our characters are similar too!) on a bad day Miriam Margolyes as Professor Sprout...

"Mandy from Hollyoaks"

Rather less chic than I'd have wished!

Edie McCredie

Been told several times
Demi Moore
And a young Elizabeth Taylor

Sadly I don't look like any famous women, because generally they have some degree of good looks which have helped them get their fame. I am very very lacking in the looks department. I was once told I looked like Princess Margaret (in her later years); I was 16 at the time. Not great.

Fizz from coronation Street
Merida from brave

You can probably guess my defining characteristic

Not me, but dh has been described as looking like a slim Joey from Friends. Not convinced myself!
