Who is your Doppelganger?

In general who is your doppelganger? Which celebrities do people say you look like? Since this forum is so private there's little to know about who you are talking to besides their avatar.

The top one I get that annoys me is Josh Groban. Really any guy with curly brown hair. Also Sasha Baron Cohen... but which one?



Also my wife thinks I'm bit of a mix of both Affleck brothers. Particularly from Goodwill Hunting.



These days I'm more of a smoke break / Dunkin Donuts Ben though:

When I was younger I was once told that I looked like Ralph Fiennes. I thought that was a generous (to me) comparison, but I suppose if I squint I could see the slight resemblance.

He is better looking than me but I will say that my hairline has held up better than his

I often get Elton John and it annoys me. I don’t see it at all.

I know what you look like (unfair, I know!) but I find you look a bit like Quebec filmmaker Xavier Dolan. Look him up.

There is a very vague semblance. But only to young Elton / the guy who played him in the biopic. It's also partially complexion and hair colour. Are you sure you don't own a pair of star shaped sun glasses?

I’ve been told I look like the guy from Arrow, when I was younger Tyler Labine from Breaker High.

It's weird how he is typecast as a villain the way that he looks. That new movie where he's a killer chef or something being the most recent example.

Well then you look exactly like one of my friends. He's a dead ringer for Sacha Baron Cohen. They look almost identical to one another.

I used to get this guy ALL of the time when I was younger.

Someone would come up to me, and say "You know who you look like?" And I'd guess right 100% of the time.

I've been compared to Tom Hanks and sometimes Mark Wahlberg (and more rarely, Matt Damon). I probably look like the average of all three, but in a latter day Smoke Break/Dunkin Donuts Affleck sort of way.

Going off of limited pictures you kind of remind me of Seth McFarlane.

^ Does anyone remember that amateur website from 20-odd years ago that the Borat character was based on? The Turkish guy with his "foto-camera"?

Saw him in person years back. I wasn't sure it was him until he starting talking.

I was told about 5 years ago I look like the guy who plays Sheldon on Big Bang. I see the resemblance for sure.
