It all started with this picture.
One of Miss 16’s friends shared it on Facebook and tagged my daughter about a year ago.
Except it isn’t actually Miss 16. It’s Katy Perry – we were all struck with the resemblance.
In real life, Miss 16 doesn’t really look all that much like Katy Perry. But in some photographs, it’s a different story. See for yourself!
Miss 16’s not the only one with a celebrity lookalike. Many years ago, people often told me I looked like Meg Ryan. However plastic surgery (Meg’s, not mine) has changed all that.
The hubster used to be known for his resemblance to Clark Kent (as in Superman). Something to do with the glasses I think!
At a recent family gathering we were trying to work out everybody’s celebrity double. I can’t share pics of my family members for privacy reasons, but here are the celebrities that most look like them:
Do you – or any of your family members – look like a celebrity?
stephanie says
Love the muppet resemblance! No celeb lookalikes in our family I’m afraid.
Jodi says
When I was younger, and my hair was a LOT blonder, I was told by many people I looked like Reese Witherspoon, I think it was the chin! π
My brother from certain angles looks like Murray the Red Wiggle…..a friend looks like Jeff the Purple Wiggle, and the kids think their daddy looks like Anthony the Blue Wiggle. We just need someone to look like Sam (or Greg) and we will have our own band!! π
Janet says
Actually I can still see a resemblance in your profile pic. Your family and friends could make serious money as Wiggles lookalikes I reckon – but can they sing and play instruments?!
Lydia C. Lee says
In Italy many moons ago, Japanese people kept getting their photo with me, and Italians kept staring at me – and finally I said to a man standing near me, when some Japanese stopped me for a photo “I don’t know why they keep doing that” and he said “It’s because you look like that lady on the tv. You know…funny lady” I actually don’t know who they meant???
Janet says
Wouldn’t it be cool to find out WHO you resembled?!
lisa says
Haha No look alikes here! But I do think Meg Ryan is your double!!
Janet says
Back then perhaps – definitely not now – I think she’s had a bit too much nipping and tucking!
Renee at Mummy, Wife, Me says
Lol. Your poor brother in law. You definitely look like Meg and your daughter could def get a gig as a Katy Perry double. People say I look like Jennifer Love Hewitt. I’m happy with that. Once I was told I look like Miranda from Sex in the City. I was not so happy with that π
Janet says
Fortunately my B-I-L is a good sport! Yep, I think I can see the Jennifer Love Hewitt likeness too.
Mrs BC says
Your daughter is beautiful! When I was younger, everyone (seriously, even strangers) used to say I looked like Tina Arena off Young Talent Time. I hated it because I wanted to be confused with Joan Jett.
xx
Janet says
Thank you for the lovely compliments about my girl; I think she’s gorgeous but then I’m biased π
Were you a little shortie like Tina Arena?!
Aroha @ Colours of Sunset says
bahahhha at t he muppet!! Your daughter does look a bit like KP! I was once told I looked like Maggie Gyllenhall but I don’t see it at ALL. -Aroha
Janet says
I think I can see it – not the hair colour, but you have the same delicate features.
Lisa@Circle of Toast says
Poor brother in law! My sister in law actually resembles Princess Fiona, from Shrek – sadly in ogre form, not human – but without the green skin. I don’t think I would ever tell her this, though!
Janet says
Oh that’s hilarious! Come to think of it I know somebody who could be the same!
Alicia says
lol at the muppet relative! Your daughter does look like Katy Perry!
My BIL reckons hubby looks like Wallace (and gromit). He does a bit! Sssh, I didn’t say that π
Some say my sister looks like Olivia N-John and my dad has mutton chop facial hair and reminds me of the dad from The Darling Buds of May π
Lisa@RandomActsOfZen says
Janet, your daughter is so gorgeous, and definitely a Katy lookalike! Poor Meg has really gone too far hasn’t she? x
Emily @ Have a laugh on me says
That is so funny! And yes I can see the resemblance, she is quite stunning, and naturally so Janet! And go Meg – CLASSIC π
EssentiallyJess says
This is how behind I am, I didn’t even know Meg had had surgery. I don’t think I look like anyone. No one has ever said I have anyway
Janet says
LOL Jess that’s because you are fabulously unique!!!
Emily says
Funny! And I often find myself thinking that one family member or another looks like a muppet. I have an uncle who has been mistaken for complete strangers more than once as Rolf Harris. But he’s not as good a singer π
Janet says
Hopefully he hasn’t been tarred with the negative press Rolf has been getting lately, either!
Cathy says
You really did look like Meg Ryan and your daughter definitely bears a resemblance to Katy Perry! Funny, in some cases only certain people see the resemblance. For eg I swear one of my nephews looks like Jake Wall (Jennifer Hawkins hubby) but only one other person sees it π
I did get agreement with my cousin looking like Katie Holmes – and perhaps a little like Princess Kate – think it’s the smile/chin.
