You look like.....

....apparently according to my boyfriend, I look like Drew Barrymore. All I need to look exactly like her is contacts that change my eyecolor and a haircut. (....but I love my hair....)

....I could also probably lose some weight and cosplay Belldandy, only with glasses. emot-smile

Re: You look like.....

I'll bite.

I have some peripheral resemblance to Juri (tall, curly red hair, greenish eyes) and I got a lot of Kate Winslet comments back when Titanic was super popular. It didn't help that my middle name was Rose and I'm not fond of my first name.

I have a hard time buying any of it, but whatever.emot-dance

EDIT: Oh yeah, some chick at a SCA event once told me I looked like "Scarlet Johannson, if only you do something about those jewbrows" and I was pretty freaking amused by that.

Re: You look like.....

I don't look like anyone famous. However, I'll tell you who I do look like. This has been tested and proven countless times.

I look like someone you know.

That cousin you haven't seen in a while, that girl in grade school, someone you used to work with... that's who I look like. I look like the girl in Missouri who ran the rabbit farm, or the girl who dropped out of your dance classes. I look like one of your exes, or maybe like the girl who always hung out in the back of your theater club but never said anything.

These are all real examples of people I've been mistaken for. I can't tell you how many times I've been asked if my name is Elizabeth, or whether I went to school at Vic Comp. I have one of those faces, I guess, because it seems like whenever I meet someone new, they ask, "Don't I know you from somewhere? Didn't you work at the hospital last year?"

For some reason, the answer's always no. It's just one of the weird things that always happens to me. emot-dance

Hey, now I don't have to type out something similar, because that's exactly who I look like too!  I've been called Candy (my name is not Candy), I've been asked if someone knew me, I've been told by my husband that there was someone who 'looked just like you' when he was still living in a different state (boyfriend at the time), and I've been told the same thing by someone else who lives in an entirely different state.  I really didn't think I had that generic of an appearance, but I guess I was wrong.  Who knew?

And personally I think Gio in certain pictures in IFD looks like Jennifer Connelly (sp?) in her Labyrinth days.  But that's neither here nor there.

Re: You look like.....

Haha, I get the same thing only from behind.

Apparently there's this girl who lives near the local supermarket named Sarah. There have been COUNTLESS times when someone has run people over calling "SARAH!!!" only to realise when I turn around that I ain't her. It's pretty terrific. emot-biggrin I guess I have a unique face or something, because for all the times someone thought I was someone when I wasn't it's almost always a back situation.

I have a familiar ass. Great.

Aw shucks. Actually, I think the Sean Bean comparison came specifically because I was Boromir for Halloween one year - grew my hair out and everything. It took forever but it was worth it. The real hotness though was my girlfriend at the time dressing as Aragorn. Wish I knew where those pictures were.

But hey, he WAS the best with a sword out of all of them. school-freud

I think it was something in your eyes and the way your hair was falling/your expression in just one or two of the pictures.  Overall, it wasn't there, but in like 2 of them, I saw it.  emot-keke

Re: You look like.....

Once upon a time in college, someone told me I looked like Joan Jett.  I suspect it was partly the cheekbones, partly the dark hair, partly the fact that at that point, I occasionally wore makeup and that was one of the times.  I still treasure the moment, because, back in the late 80s, Joan Jett was One Hot Lady.

Nowdays, I suspect I look more like Cass Elliott, only taller, with glasses, and dykey.

... only I think I've outlived Cass Elliott *checks Wikipedia* oh, hell, yes, I have.

Never mind.

Back in grad school, I was mistaken for someone else twice in a single day.  The first time was on an Army base, where some woman started calling me "Rosemary".  When I told her I wasn't Rosemary, she didn't believe me.  Later on, I was in a strip club (long story, not there of my own accord) too early for customers to be in, and one of the strippers chatted me up in a most familiar fashion.  We talked, and she asked me, "Weren't you here last week?"  I said no.  "But you drive a dark blue car, right?"  Yes, I admitted.  "You were here for the drug raid then!" 

Um.  No.

Late 80s?  Have you seen a picture of Joan Jett recently?  She's even sexier than ever before!

Re: You look like.....

I look like Kanae, only shorter and with blue eyes instead of green. Now all I need is a scarf and orange dress.

Mistaken identities is a very frequent occurance for me. Being a twin is actually kind of creepy, in a way. People I don't know will smile and wave at me, or talk to me as though they know, when I've never seen them before. And my friends who haven't met my sister will usually tell me that they saw me somewhere, when I was really somewhere else.

Spamspamspam! Hahaha! I now spam thee with pictures of things!

http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e164/morosemocha/8948_214181a8be44fgxa3g13.jpg

Let's see...As I recall, the first row is Claire Daines, Kirsten Dunst, someone I don't know (Rachel Leigh Cook? I dunno) and Monica Bellucci. SCORE. On the bottom row, I think that's Giselle Bundchen, but I'm not sure, Gloria Estefan, Michelle Williams, and I don't know the last one AT ALL.


It does change depending on the picture you put in, what features are more prominant, that kinda thing, but Claire Daines and Kirsten Dunst showed up on a couple tries. This is the only one I got Monica Bellucci on, tho, so this is the one that gets posted. emot-biggrin


The first time you looked at her curves you were hooked
And the glances you took, took hold of you and demanded that you stay
And sunk in their teeth, bit your heart and released
Such a charge that you need another touch, another taste, another fix
