I've been told that I look like Gweneth Paltrow with brown hair and brown eyes.... I've also been told I even have mannerisms like her. Posts: 1417 | Registered: Aug 1999

I'm just starting a thread where Hatrackers say who they mostly look like. I don't want to show my picture yet. Posts: 1417 | Registered: Aug 1999

Actually, I think the kind soul who said I was the spitting image of Jack Osborne was probably closer.

When in my low-teens I was told I looked like Ralph Maccio. Later on it would be a series of different musicians, depending on where my facial hair was at the time, and some of whom don't look that similiar to each other: Trent Reznor, Brian Warner, Nuno Bentencourt, Chris Cornell, and 1 or 2 others I can't think of right now.
Lately I've mostly been told I look like Jesus. Including by one of dkw's parishoners.

fugu13... You DO. Really. I never thought about it, but yeah.
I always get told I look like people that I really don't look like at all. The chick from Northern Exposure, The chick from China Beach. Sandra Bullock.
I don't resemble any of them in the least, except maybe the hairstyles I've had at different times. I used to wear my hair like Terri Hatcher in her Lois and Clark days.
I just have one of those inoffensive, girl-next-door faces. Everyone thinks I look like somebody they know. Clients used to say to their companions, "Doesn't she look just like so-and-so's cousin?" People used to stop me in the mall and ask, "Do you work at that sports bar?"
I find it terribly vexing.

Heh, thanks, though I actually still have very little conception of what Beck looks like. Suppose I could just look in a mirror, though.

A friend once told me I was in some ways similar to the fellow who played Finch in the American Pie films. I wouldn't say I was flattered, precisely. Posts: 10886 | Registered: Feb 2000

I've been told I look like: Jake Gyllenhaal (We have very similar eyes, I mostly agree) Toby Mcquire (I don't agree as much, but he looks a lot like Jake Gyllenhaal, so can't argue there)
and Matt Damon I'm not sure what the resemblance is, but lots of people have told me. Niki said no way when I told her that people have said this, but then when watching Rounders she said she could totally see it. I think it might be body type or hair or mannerisms.

If I were forced at gunpoint to say you looked like any of them, I would say you resembled Toby McGuire. But you don't look much like any of them.
And I recently said of myself that my face shape is very similar to Mercedes McNab , the actress that plays Harmony on Buffy and Angel. I guess that gives me an idea of what I would look like as a blonde. Posts: 7050 | Registered: Feb 2004

My husband found a picture of Meg White and says she looks like me. I guess she kind of does...a younger, thinner, way, way prettier me Posts: 957 | Registered: Aug 2002

I was once told I looked like Princess Diana. But the guy was trying to convince me to have sex with him at the time (I wasn’t even interested in having lunch with him) so I pretty much discounted it. My hair might have looked a little like hers, though.

Dana, I can understand why someone would say that you look like Princess Diana. But it's more your face than hair.

I had a manager who thought I looked like Elvis Presley. She even gave me a nice Elvis collector's stamp set inside a little glass box.
I personally think I look nothing like the King, but what do you do. I keep that stamp in my cubicle as a reminder that at least somebody thinks so.

The closest I've come to being told I look like a celebrity is someone told me my lips looked like Julia Roberts's lips. I didn't exactly take it as a compliment, actually.
Other than that, I've had several recent Russian immigrants assume I was one as well, which I also don't understand in the slightest. Posts: 7954 | Registered: Mar 2004
