S/O: Have you ever been told you DO look like a celebrity?

I literally get stopped on the street with people saying I look like Kate Walsh (Addison Montgomery- Private Practice/Grey's). Customers, strangers... I get it a lot.

 

Edited to add: PIP so we can decide for ourselves!

(It will take me a sec to find one of myself...)

  • I used to get Gillian Anderson (Agent Scully from X Files) a lot, but not so much anymore.  I don't know if it's because I don't look like her anymore or because she's not on TV now.

  • Sarah Jessica Parker, Barbara Streissand, and TV's 'Blossom'

    I must have a big nose, eh?

  • When I worked at McDonalds in HS I had a customer ask me if I was the girl from the Noxema commercial (she has curly hair, ended up being on some tv series, I don't remember her name).  It was hilarious, yes, I am on television, but work at McDonalds in my spare time?!?!?  LOL!

  • Not recently, but when I was younger and thinner, people used to stop me all the time (random people in the street) and tell me I looked like Salma Hayek (I wish!) or Elaine from Seinfeld.  IMO, I don't look like either people other than the fact that I have long dark hair and in the case of Salma, I'm hispanic. 

  • Someone on here told me I looked like Charlise Theron when I posted this pic. ?I am forever flattered by that :)image

  • Years ago, I used to have people ask me if I was some random soap actress from Young and the Restless (I *think* her name was Ashley Jones). ?It was freaky. ?Literally about 3x a week, someone would stop me in public to ask me about it, and once a group of men asked to take a picture with me. ?Um, no. ?More recently, a grocery store clerk told me I looked like an actress from Bold and the Beautiful. ?I looked it up, and it's the same actress.

  • In high school everyone used to say I looked like Claire Danes.  That was My So Called Life time.  I don't look like her so much anymore.
  • Not so much anymore but I used to get Kirstie Ally all the time 15yrs ago when she was on Cheers (& I was still in HS).  I've gotten Katarina Witt & Brooke Sheilds too when younger but I think it's the big eyebrows.  The totally weirdest off the wall ones are Cameron Diaz (though I think it was more my personality because I cannot see this at all) & Michelle Pfiefer (when I was in college).

  • I used to get Bridget Fonda a lot from friends.  Someone stopped me once in downtown Dallas and asked if I were her! 

    When I was over on theknot on P&E I had a picture in my bio and the girls all thought I looked like Gwenyth Paltrow. 

    I don't think I look like either.

  • I used to get told regularly when I was around 18-23 that I looked like

    Sophia Loren

    Uma Thurman (my hair was get black and I had a Betty Page hair cut)

    Jennifer Beal (sp?)

    um.. I forgot to add that I don't see any resemblance.. I think it is just the strong cheek bones.

  • I've been told I look like Olivia Williams. She was in Rushmore and The Sixth Sense.

    DD pointed to a pic of Angelina Jolie once and said,"there you are mom." Does that count? Stick out tongue 

  • DH always says I look like Sandra Bullock and Gabrielle Union.  I disagree on both.
  • I've gotten Madeline Stowe for years ....if she's in a current movie the comparisons really ramp up

  • I don't have a picture to show, but I have had a few people tell me I look like Rachael Ray.  And everytime we are watching her on TV, DS says "Momma, why you on TV?"

    I don't think I look like her at all.

  • Not so much anymore, but I got Shannen Doherty a LOT in my younger years.  My DH actually told me that is who he thought I looked like when he met me (10 years ago).  I had long dark hair and wore bright lipstick just like she did on 90210-the HS years.  I had a good friend who looked like Jenny Garth, too - we were the Brenda and Kelly of our HS ;)  It also helped that I had the same name as her...

    I have also heard Marisa Tomei and Dana Delaney.

    I am completely incapable of doing a PIP.  If you wanna see me, you must me my FB friend.

  • Back in college a couple of people told me that I looked like Nancy Kerrigan, and one person said I looked like Nicole Kidman.  I would PIP, but I don't know how!
  • Jessica Alba and Angelina Jolie back in the day when my hair was darker
