    Hey,

    Does anyone ever tell you that you look like anyone famous or have you ever been mistaken for anyone famous.

    My sister was reading a mag a while back and it had a feature on the front, "Celebs looking rough"..... She went to my Dad "oh my god! she is the image of XXXXX (me, irish high)! It was a pic of Jessica Biel with no make up on and she looked like she had been dragged across a field by a tractor!:eek: My sister kept trying to make it up to me saying, "she was voted sexiest woman"! not looking like that she wasn't:P

    I was once told I looked like the actor James McAvoy. Took it as a compliment!

    I was told I looked once that i looked like Gail from Coronation Street. To say I wan't happy would be a bit of an understatement!


  • Registered Users Posts: 161 ✭✭Blueboyd


    I look a bit like Bruce Willis I'm afraid.

    Did help me to get good service though once when I happened to go to a party that was at the DGA- building in LA (DGA = Director's Guild of America).

    But it only lasted til I opened my mouth. :eek:

    i have been told that i look like cheryl cole ( when she cut the mane of hair) mind you a fair bit of drink had been taken.

    I was in BT2 the other day and someone thought I was Anna Friel??

    Surely the question should be "what celebrity looks like you"?

    ps, has celebrity status yet reached the point where the manager of my local spar can be considered a celebrity? I know that to be considered a celebrity isn't what it was, and more or less anyone is a celebrity these days, and I wondered whether we are nearing the point where we will all be celebrities and all shall have prizes?

    I take it this is your subtle way of trying to tell us you look like jessica
    biel, yet at the same time acting all insulted coz it was a bad picture of her just the same. you might resemble her looking drab, on your best day, maybe, just a nuance of similarity I'm betting. you neglect to disclose your sister is 4 years old :D

    Lots of very good looking people on this message board ! To be honest, I am supposed to be a clone of Noel Dempsey TD. I don't know whether that's a compliment or an insult

    I look like Bill Hader apparently.

    You might remember him as one of the cops from Superbad.

    When I met you I thought you were the image of him. Seriously, he is your twin! (it's a pretty cool twin though :))

    I was recently told I look like Zooey Deschanel from 500 days of summer because I got a fringe cut. I was quite pleased with that one!

    Ha. Well it's certainly better than when people compare me to Stephen King... that's not flattering at all! I don't even know if they mean before or after the car crash or not...

  • Registered Users Posts: 91 ✭✭iffy_2007

    I resembled Sinead O Connor in the early 90's. Alas neither of us look like that now! :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 130 ✭✭Larkenn


    I've been told I look like Monica Bellucci and Salma Hayek in their younger days by two different people. So I'll say a mixture of both.


  • Registered Users Posts: 618 ✭✭✭Rael


    We did this in work recently. I look like Greg Grunberg, actor in Alias and Heroes.

  • Posts: 50,630 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    I've been told I look like Kate Winslet. Alisha Silverstone. Grace Kelly. Most recent thing I get is Holly Willoughby (I wish). But Tanya from Eastenders I get all the time :mad:

    There's a thread in cool links & bids where you throw up your pic and let boardsies decide which celeb you look like :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 292 ✭✭retroactive


    I've been mistaken for Ed Sheeran before and a few friends have commented that I'm a mirror image of him just with a cleaner hair cut..

    Not sure how to take it TBH

    I get 'a young sandra bullock' all the time, to the point of headwrecking.

    Got cheryl cole a couple times but think its just my hair/a really bad chat up line :L


  • Registered Users Posts: 11 HeadOfCurls


    I have curly hair so I'm likened to ANYONE with curly hair.......Minnie Driver...Elaine from Seinfeld...Andie McDowell etc.
    Although I reminded someone of Kate Bush once.......did she ever have curly hair or just a wild untamed mane??? :confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,405 ✭✭✭Lone Stone

    What's wrong with Tanya from Eastenders?:) She's very attractive! I've seen a pic of you on here before and you look like Holly Willoughby too :)
