Back when I was around half the size I am now and was in the UK a fair bit people used to think I was Tim Flowers (ex Blackburn goalkeeper)....

Whosbetter?

Never been actually mistaken for anybody else.

However, if I was to be cast in a film, I would be the unhinged rifle-wielding baddie sort that always gets killed in the end.

Y'know the type....

orourkeda

Yeah, Boutros Boutros Galli

sharms

andrea roche but she's old and im only 22 so i should probably be really insulted

Galvasean

I'm CONSTANTLY being told I look like James van Der Beek (Dawson from Dawson's Creek). I've had to sign autographs and all.
During Movember when I had the tasche apparently I looked like Mat Damon in the Informant.
Couple of times when I had the goatee I was told I looked like Leonardo DiCaprio (but that was only by drunk people).

skyhighflyer

Get 'Chris Evans' quite a bit.

And during the Eurovision a couple of years ago got mistaken several times for Joseph McCall. Jesus I hated those few weeks. Anywhere I went people would literally wish me 'good luck in the Eurovision' in a non-ironic fashion.

Kill me

leincar

Jeremy Clarkson.

tech77

Michael Owen.

Seillejet

Ethan Hawke when I was younger. Lads used to enjoy ripping the piss.

tman

A guy in a club kept confusing me for one of the DJs who was playing that night... He kept coming back to me and asking random questions about producing music

It was fun playing along for a while - poor guy was fairly mashed!:p

Get the piss taken out of me on a regular basis for looking like one of the guys from JLS (Marvin I think)
