Quite a few people in my family have been likened to famous people. One of my uncles (on my mother's side of the family - several of them are quite dark and Oriental-looking) reminds me of a younger Jackie Chan. The other, taller one looks like John Travolta. My mother herself has a hairstyle like Beethoven, but is actually MUCH prettier - she used to wear her hair in a really straight, sleek bob in her younger days, and was almost a dead ringer for Jackie Onassis. My father is like British ex-Tory politician Michael Heseltine (they're both blond, Welsh and March-born Aries) and I - well, when I worked in a DIY store once, a new manager came up to me and said: "Phoebe." "Come again?" I asked. "Phoebe," he said. "From "Friends"." He couldn't believe it when he heard I played the guitar... IP: Logged |

My uncle on my father's side used to bear a striking resemblance to Harrison Ford.And my mother is compared to Cher quite a lot even though she's a redhead. Maybe it because her grandfather was Cherokee and she has those cheekbones ------------------ you came one night, turned my tide blood red moon that you are IP: Logged |

Oh - I forgot - OUTside our family we have Bernadette Peters, customer adviser in our local Garden Centre, and a thinner version of Jack Nicholson as manager of our local photocopying shop... IP: Logged |

...At my college there was also a bus driver who was a dead ringer for Lionel Ritchie. All the drunk teenagers rolling out of the pubs at 11.00 p.m. used to take the **** out of him by singing "I Just Called To Say I Love You" (yes, wrong artist, but by then they were too p***ed to care) and shouting out, "Come on, Lionel, join in!"

I have an uncle on my father's side wholooks like Harrison Ford with Dark hair....I think it's the cleft Chin.I am told ALL THE TIME by friends and perfect strangers that I look like Sandra Bullock or Julia Roberts... other people have said I look like: Gina Gershon, Bridget Fonda, some Actress from the West Wing, Lisa Loeb (singer), and of course...Sandra Bullock or Julia Roberts. I don't see it....maybe a little with Julia Robers because of the big wide smile...but other than that...no. IP: Logged |

I've been told I look like Becka from that show "Life Goes On" numerous times. My mom used to look a bit like Goldie Hawn. My little sister looks like she could be an Olsen triplet too. IP: Logged |
