More look-alikes.

In further pursuit of bolstering my vanity, I thought it might be fun to post a list of people that I have been told I look like. Fun for me, at least.
Also, know that I get told by new people and strangers that I look "just like" someone they know on a regular basis. Somebody's friend. Somebody's cousin. Somebody's girlfriend back in Calgary (He showed me the picture. What was I supposed to do with that?).

So here it is:


Keri Russel.
I get this one lots. I got it from her make-up artist, which I think must hold some credibility. However, my hubby saw her at a party, and said she's "tiny". I therefore put myself forward to play her fat, ugly, older sister if the role ever occurs. I'm camera ready, Keri's agent!
If anything more remarkable than being hit by a car ever happens to me, I'd really like Keri to play "Me: the movie version", okay?






Elizabeth Deschanel from the TV show "Bones".
Yeah, if I never ate. Ever. However, I am tempted to paste my head onto her body in any production still that also features David Boreanaz.









Rachel Leigh Cook.
I don't get this one, either, but I've had it said to me more than once, so it makes the list.









Nicole Kidman.
The first time I heard this one, I actually laughed out loud, in the guy's face, before walking away, shaking my head and saying, "nice try, buddy." Since then, it has been a consistent source of amusement for me, spurred on by would-be complimenters who are clearly vision-impared. Ah, Nicole, my paragon of beauty. If I thought that attaining her heights was even remotely possible, I would immediately cease and desist all food consumption of any kind, and save my pennies for Botox. Sounds easy, no?

I just felt the need to say that I too have been told I look like Keri Russel. Only once, and it was recently. But all parties (mainly my new co-workers) decided I was prettier and had better hair.
However, I too have been told on numberous occasions that I look like Nicole Kidman. Which is just plain old fashion crazy. But we do look like each other, and if that's what the masses are telling us.
But my favourite for me to date was the man in Jordan last summer who told me I looked like J-Lo. It must have been my awesome tan.

Maybe you should just say "I'm pretty, and I look like other pretty people."

You are, you know.

I believe the terminology was "fucking gorgeous."

for the record, the first time I saw Bones, I turned to Beth and said "she looks like margot"
