A friend recently told me I look like Dan Levy! (I am a woman!) Grin

About 15 years ago the kids I taught used to tell me I looked like Pink - but alas she has aged a lot better than me.

I've had Maggie Gyllenhaal a few times too.

Sharon Stone. By 3 different people.

I look more like Billie.

In my very early 20s I was often told I was the spit of Kathleen Turner (Romancing the stone era, Kathleen Turner). Both her and I have changed a bit since then lol. It was 30 years ago.

I did one of those "celebrity morph" apps back in the early internet days that defunds your lookalike based on facial dimensions etc.

I got Robbie Coltrane.

I didn't think so up to that point.

I really hope not, still!

I also once did a face swap with OH and I/we looked like Paddy from Emmerdale (I'm not the bald one)

I actually really like Robbie Coltrane so I'm not that fussed!!

DP thinks I look like Rhona Mitra, I'll take that! I've also been told I look like Sandra Bulllock. A waitress at Frankie & Benny's once really enthusiastically told me I look like a wrestler! I was like Hmm, someone called Lita, I had no idea who she is but DP assured me that was a good thing.
