Lighthearted thread..
I got into a taxi today and the driver turned to me and said… My god you are the spitting image of a young Annie Lennox! I am chuffed by this, she’s beautiful, can’t say I see it but I’ll take the compliment.
The only other celeb I’ve ever been compared to was Billie Piper in my teens, I can see this more.
Anyone else care to share there celebrity lookalike?

When I was a teenager I was told I looked like Mary Hopkin. I suspect that 99% of people on here have never heard of her 😂.

I have ! Singer, long fair hair . “Those were the days my friend “

Only one poster on the entire thread brave enough to post a selfie to back up their claims! 🤣

It’s not our claims, it’s other peoples 🤣

Stacy from eastenders when I was much younger- but we’re a similar age and we don’t look the same at all now, but looking back at photos from say ten years ago we really did! It’s like we stayed the same for years then went separate ways…

Me too! Almost every single night out someone would say to me 'don't you look like that girl off of Eastenders'... this went on for ageeeeees. Until one night someone said to me 'you look alot like that girl off the tele' and I jumped into with 'yes, I know Lacey Turner' and they said 'no, the one that plays Sally in Home and Away- lol.
The boys in the year above me at school used to call me Stace!! No resemblance now though.

RSavernake · 09/06/2025 20:24

No-one recently. 20/25 years ago I used to get told I look like Gina McKee, then when The Killing came out it was Sofie Grabol. I have gained a lot of weight since then though so any resemblance has gone.

Someone said i look a bit like Meghan Markle.

I am a size 16 at the moment certainly not as slim as her.

Edited

I can see the resemblance

yakkity · 09/06/2025 20:36

PoppingZits · 07/06/2025 09:11

Nope. You do not look anything like Meghan Markle.

I think she does

My PT is the spit of a younger Deborah Harry.
I looked like, back in my 20s (depending on the age of the person saying it) Gina Lollobrigida or Nastassja Kinski.

Apparently I do too, I've had Debbie Harry and Kirsten Dunst but I'm too shy to share a pic!

You could not look less like MM if you tried.

If you can’t see the resemblance you have funny eyesight!

If you can see a resemblance you should have gone to Specsavers.

Well clearly I’m not the only one as others think the same as do all the people who have told the poster so.

TheHappyBug · 11/06/2025 10:04

I can see a resemblance. They don’t look exactly the same, but there is something about them both that reads the same to me. I think it’s the eyes and the face shape.

Good grief, you both must be beauties. Debra Harry was an absolute stunner. I didn't see it at the time as I was quite young, but when you look back, she was off the scale beautiful. She's still lovely.

I think most of the time people aren’t doppelgängers. They just have some essence of or resemblance of someone else.

But I think Margot Robbie and Jaime Pressly are uncannily alike

Would love to think I looked like a young Debbie Harry when I was younger but I'm prob getting too old for that compliment anymore. Thank you for making me feel good for a moment though! My mum is just beautiful, way more so than me. She's all cheekbones and beautiful big eyes ❤️

That's got to be the same woman! Very uncanny.

Not true. They look absolutely nothing alike whatsoever.

BunnyLake · 13/06/2025 11:00

In my lifetime (well younger years teens-30s) I have been likened to Kate Bush, Audrey Hepburn and Gwyneth Paltrow. I see myself more like Hilda Ogden now 😁

onthewineagain · 13/06/2025 12:56

onthewineagain · 07/06/2025 15:25

In my 20s, Christina Aguillera and Peaches Geldof (before she got really thin).

I kind of see it, similar face shape.

Nobody has said it for years though. No comparisons for a long time now.

Just remembered the other one - Anna Kournikova.

It’s definitely the face shape.

I do see the resemblance a bit, particularly when I was younger.

I’m a bit overweight now, which I hate, but on the plus side, I think my face shape lends quite a youthful appearance.

Gorganzolabrie · 13/06/2025 15:52

In my twenties it was Audrey Hepburn (I wish!). In my forties someone told me I looked like Cherie Blair. 😟

Interestingly all 3 of yours do have larger faces with heavier lower faces. I would never have thought of those three having any similarities!

LightDrizzle · 14/06/2025 00:13

An ex boyfriend told me I looked like Stan Laurel! I can sort of see it with certain facial expressions. I liked Stan Laurel so I was just mildly amused.

@yakkity”larger faces with heavier lower faces”

I’d say I probably do have a “larger face” and can see that that is in common with the 3 celebs listed.

I’ve never noticed “heavier lower face” though….something to think about.

I feel I’ve got a fairly big forehead so tend to focus on that that rather than lower face!
