This topic came up at a get together last night, and I thought it was pretty amusing. We all get the "You look just like...", and "Has anybody ever told you that you look like...."

So two questions: Who do you think you look like? Who do others think you look like?

I'll start, I've been told I look like three different people, the character "Mr. Big" from Sex in the City , Tom Hanks (? Never understood that one), and Rowen (sp?)Atkinson (more commonly known as Mr. Bean). When I look in the mirror, the celebrity I always thought I looked like was Brendan Frasier.

Ok, next?

When I was in my twenties: Linda Ronstadt

now in my forties: Susan Sarandon

I personally don't think I look like either of them. But, you've seen me so you tell me. I'll agree with Tom Hanks for you. Admittedly I don't know who Mr Big and Mr Bean are.

edit: And once I was told I looked like Caroline Kennedy. I was about 16. I had the heebie jeebies for weeks after that.

I look like me, myself, and I. Others agree.

(Except for KathyK. She thinks I look like JF.)

One person said I'm Italian, but in fact, I look considerably Chinese (but I'm actually Filipino).

And then people keep saying that I look like my Dad. I get ticked off cause I don't want to look like my dad (and my Dad just keeps laughing when everybody says this). He's like, "Well too bad - you are going to look like me!! hahah!"

I think Susan Sarandon is very appropriate for you.

I don't look like anyone. I've tried to figure out which celebrity I look anything like, and I have never been able to come up with anything (nor has anyone else I know). Occasionally I'll see photos of certain celebs at certain angles that resemble me, or I'll see a certain mannerism that looks a bit like something I'd do, but that's it.

You need to get in a black suit and do the same pose! Does Mr. Dreyfus know that he has a twin that was seperated from him at birth?

We gave Frank a mighty hard time about this at the GTG.

I don't think I look like anyone famous... but other people have told me I look like two famous athletes. One I guess I can understand, because at least we're the same color, but the other (and I've heard it from 3 people) I don't get at all....

Troy Aikman, and Dennis Rodman
I have heard from one person that I looked like Harry Connick Jr. But that doesn't count because it was only one person. smile

Now, to those who don't know me personally, I look nothing like any of these good looking gents.

Those of you who DO know me... you're already rolling on the floor laughing so you're not reading this part anyway.

We met on a train from NY once, he ended up sitting next to me. Weirdest experience.
I ended up loaning him my cell phone because his died and he was talking business with someone on the West coast.

I said we could be brother's, he said he doesn't think he looks that old until he see's his reflection (same thing I always say).
