Know Any Celebrity Lookalikes?
« on: January 11, 2007, 04:35:34 PM »
How many people do you know who look like celebrities?  Or at least enough that they remind you of certain celebrities?

(Some of these will date me horribly, but here goes)

My wife used to remind me of Diana Lynn (who?  Google if you're curious).

A prospective boss used to remind me of Suzanne Pleschette (Bob Newhart's frequent flyer).

A shooting range boss looks a lot like George Clooney.

A middle school band director looks like Victor Borge.

I remind myself of Cary Grant -- but friends insist I'm either Maxwell Smart or Fred Flintstone.  :(

I get at least 5 people a year approach me and say "did you know you look just like Bruce?"  Personally, I don't see any resemblence at all other than a shaved head...but my wife and sisters all agree and tease me about it every family reunion. :(   I'm actually getting rather tired of strangers approaching me...

You only see your wife at family reunions? That's quite a feat.

Well if you get up here, and we have lunch, we could have someone take our pic in front of a warbird and then they'd think we're brothers! :D:lol

At school they say I look like Harry Potter and talk like Napoleon Dynamite.  I don't agree with either but there you are.

Rip, from the lower part of your cheek bones down both sides of your face to your chin, you resemble Bruce quite a bit.

Why don't you stop shaving your head?

Just shave one side then. People will know that you are neither Bruce, or a monk.

I have the dubious honor of looking like Tom Selleck.

My normal retort when someone mentions that fact is that he's my slightly older and very much welthier brother.
