<p>When I was in college, a classmate who lived in Chicago came back from a vacation one time with a photo she’d clipped from a newspaper, of a woman who looked exactly like me - same face, same hair color and style. It was a wedding photo, a close-up of her face. The eerie thing was that she also had the same (not terribly common) name, first and last! I was unmarried at time and she was “Mrs. {my maiden name}”, so she probably wasn’t an unrecognized offshoot of the family tree.</p>
<p>Among the worst comparisons I have heard: Keith Richards and Billy Bob Thornton (??? to both)</p>
<p>Others include Davey Jones of the Monkees, Scott Baio & Kenny Loggins</p>
<p>“Yes, but who do you look like Xiggi? Inquiring minds want to know. I’m guessing Erik Estrada.”</p>
<p>Who? I’ve got to look that dude up.</p>
<p>I have been told that I look like Dana Delaney (the actress that was in a series about 10 years ago…China Beach). I must look fairly generic because people are always coming up to me to tell me that I look familiar to them and to ask “where do I know you from?”</p>
<p>My eldest DD looks like a cross between Michele Branch and Christina Ricci.</p>
<p>My D looks like Thora Birch from Ghost World, including the glasses. My W looks more and more like her mother, much to W’s dismay…</p>
<p>People tell me I look like the mom from the movie “Spy Kids,” Carla Gugino. I have to agree with the face part, in shmooshed sort of way, I guess. When her hair is short or up. </p>
<p>15-year-old D gets comments all the time that she looks like Brittney Spears (in her young, more innocent days… wait, did she have more innocent days? hmm…) </p>
<p>S doesn’t look like anyone, but his voice is a lot like Jimmy Stewart’s, and people have told him that.</p>
<p>H used to remind me of Tom Cruise, but now is venturing into Harrison Ford territory, sans hoop earring and sweet young thing on his arm (unless you count me, that is, hee-hee 
)</p>
<p>momsdream-
Vanessa Williams! Lucky you! </p>
<p>Who does your S resemble btw?</p>
<p>I was told a long time ago that I looked like Kathryn Ross (not anymore :)). The other day, though, a student said I looked like “that lady from Terminator.” And he’d already finished my class and gotten the A, so I can’t figure it out! (I definitely don’t look like Linda Hamilton).</p>
<p>My kids say my H looks like Bruce Springsteen, if Bruce still had a beard. I don’t see it.</p>
<p>But my brother-in-law is definitely Bruce Willis’ long lost twin–face, mannerisms, voice, balding pattern, etc. When “Moonlighting” first came out, we thought that Willis must have met BIL out in CA (he lived there at the time) and patterned the character after him. It’s uncanny.</p>
<p>Momof2Peruvians, I looked like Harrison Ford about 20 years ago. I’ve morphed with the times. I still entertain hopes of eventually looking like Sean Connery…much better looking now than when he was a boy toy.</p>
<p>Momof2Peruvians are you related to Momof2Inca?</p>
<p>But TheDad, can you get down Connery’s accent? That is THE ticket with him, you know. ahhh, that brogue ;)</p>
<p>tsdad, yeah but one of us is better looking. not saying who.</p>
<p>I don’t look like anybody . . . H doesn’t look like anybody . . . The boys don’t look like anybody . . . Although if I were to give you some idea of their looks I think the one looks a little like George Clooney (younger version) and the other a little like Doogie (Neil Patrick Harris). I have been told at various times that the two older girls resemble Ann Hathaway.</p>
<p>
ummmmmmmmmmm, mstee?</p>
<p>How old are those boys??? <em>lol</em> 'Cause I have some drop-dead gorgeous girls…
~b.</p>
<p>Momof2–my S does a dead-on Sean Connery accent. Just ask him to say “welcome to the Rock.” Doesn’t look at all like him, though.</p>
<p>berurah, I was thinking the same thing for my D! But I think we’re a bit closer to where mstee lives… haha :)</p>
<p>garland – that’s such a great line. and btw, if you look anything like Katherine Ross or Linda Hamilton, you are lucky. Both are drop dead gorgeous.</p>
<p>Apparently, I look like someone EVERYBODY knows–or knew once–since everyone I meet asks me where they know me from! It used to be an old girlfriend. Not anymore. Now I seem to have aged out of even the OLD girlfriend category!</p>
<p>Someone once said what’s-her-name from Cagney and Lacey–you know, the one with the dark hair.</p>
<p>I was seriously, ridiculously ugly as a teenager, and nothing really matched up - people used to tell me I resembled Mick Jagger (and I’m female). Somehow after about age 22 or so my face structure and appearance changed (weird), and now I am never told that I resemble anyone. For which I am very thankful.</p>
<p>I don’t think I look like anyone else. No one who looks like me has ever lived this long. ;)</p>
<p>Hmmm. Well, “George” and “Doogie” are both still “single” (as far as I know), but have some maturing still to do. But they’ll be good catches in a few years (I hope!) What a thought. Has anyone attempted a CC match yet?</p>
<p>Curmudgeon: do you mean to tell us that it’s your looks, not your manner of dress or the smell of your livestock, that have kept the Grim Reaper away so far?</p>
