Since everyone supposedly possesses a twin somewhere on Earth it appears reasonable that famous people would also possess their doppelgangers. A close resemblance to someone famous becomes an entirely different experience than having a casual likeness to your accountant. Standard citizens endure harassment from fans and paparazzi because they resemble major celebrities perfectly. Look at these bizarre resemblances then make your best effort to distinguish between them.
Angelina Jolie and This Mom
Melissa Baizen is just a regular, everyday mom from Wisconsin. Yet, random people constantly ask for her autograph. It turns out those confused fans are mistaking Baizen for another beautiful mother – Angelina Jolie!
Melissa modestly said, “Every time I get the comparison, whether it’s at work, running an errand, or online, it’s very flattering but also hard for me to believe. I think she is absolutely gorgeous and never thought of myself in that respect.”
Taylor Swift and This British Student
Laura Cadman often gets accused of imitating Taylor Swift’s look. But, in reality, the British student says that T-Swift’s makeup style is the most flattering for her face. That makes sense since Cadman and Swift look so much alike.
The doppelganger explained, “Nothing prompted me to have this look. I am naturally blonde, reasonably tall, and reasonably slim… The rest of my ‘Taylor Swift look’ just consists of classic red lipstick and eyeliner, which I personally think is the most flattering makeup on me.”
Leonardo DiCaprio and This Bartender
Konrad Annerud may look like Leonardo DiCaprio, but he doesn’t seem to enjoy young women’s attention as much as the actor does. The bartender explained, “It can be quite annoying sometimes when people call me Leo instead of my real name.”
He continued, “When I was in Italy this summer I almost felt like shaving my hair off. It was very chaotic; people were yelling ‘Leo’ and wanted to take photos with me all the time. It was one of the craziest things I’ve ever experienced.”
Meghan Markle and This Flight Attendant
Flight attendant Christine Math had been routinely mistaken for Meghan Markle ever since the ex-royal was on Suits. However, now that Markle has become a household name, Math can barely go a single day without hearing about the comparison!
That said, Christine disagrees that she’s the star’s doppelgänger. Instead, she thinks it’s just an issue of one specific similarity. She explained, “Meghan and I are both mixed-race – my dad is African American and Italian and her mom is African American.”
Scarlett Johansson and This Russian Model
Ekaterina Shumskaya is a model who’s been told she looks like Scarlett Johansson ever since she was 12 years old. As flattering as such a comparison is, Shumskaya is finding it difficult to pave her own way in modeling, because people keep confusing her with the actress.
Ekaterina explained, “There are people on the internet who confuse me with Scarlett, but I’m not pretending to be her… We just look alike… I want to live my own life, not Scarlett’s.”
