I thought this would be a fun ? because I wonder what some of you guys look like, and when you don't know someone & you're trying to describe yourself, you usually use famous people. Let's see, I have gotten everything from Jeanine Garofolo (when I was in high school) to Katie Holmes and Charlotte from Sex & the City. What about you guys?

If you've seen that commercial for (evil) Starbucks new espresso/milk drink where there's the redheaded woman who walks around the office and things keep sticking to her, so by the time she gets to the fridge where she is magically refreshed with (evil) Starbucks coffee drink she has all this stuff "stuck" to her like her dog, her boss, her mail... I kind of look like her. Not really a famous person, but close enough.

someone once said im a retarded version of Richard Gere... :(
Bass Player from No Doubt.
I used to get that I looked like this guy all the time. Especially when I had my head shaved in college.
I soon learned that Gwen Stefani wrote "Tragic Kingdom" all about him - after they broke up.
Revelation. I never knew guys like that scored women like Gwen Stefani.
Every single time I go out I get at least 2 people say " you look like cuba gooding jr"
to me thats not a compliment, I dont then he is gooding looking by no means.
They usually say he is really cute, but I think they are just meaning nice.
sometimes tiger woods.

Tall skinny killer guy (if not Skeet Ulrich) was Matthew Lilliard (Shaggy in live-action Scooby Doo).
Janeane Garofalo for me (actually described as - "That bird who's a pal of Ben Stiller's. You know, the other one - the *ugly* one - in 'The Truth About Cats and Dogs' "). I don't know which of us I was more insulted for!

That's so funny seren. Like I said earlier, I got JG too a lot in high school - I would walk down the hall and people would yell "hey Janeane!" and it was right when that movie came out and I didn't care for it at all!!! I don't think she's bad looking at all though, she tries to make herself look worse than she is, next to uma I think she actually looks better - uma is just too strange looking.
I think I probably look the most like Charlotte from Sex and the City, except my nose and chin aren't as pointy as hers are. I don't get Janeane anymore I think b/c I slimmed down a little bit since HS.

How's this one for ya...everyone tells me I look like Delta Burke...the beauty queen from Designing Women. I have to say I'm a little insulted by this but whatever. I also got a lot of Monica Lewinsky comments when the whole Bill Clinton scandal was going on. I don't know which comparison is worse!! LOL!! I have a pic at http://photos.yahoo.com/tara_wvu if you wanna check it out for yourself.

No no no...you do NOT look like Monica! Or Delta, either. Maybe they associate your dark hair and round-shaped face with them, but honey, you are very pretty.

I have been told Julia Roberts (I think because my hair is a lot like hers); Bevery D'Angelo (the mom on Nation Lampoon Vacation movies); and Helen Hunt. Could they pick three people that looked any different??:confused:

Yeah, I don't look like Matthew Lillard.
I look like the animated Shaggy. :D

Sorry, but I'm going to have to overrule your judgement on this one. Cuba is a hottie. Take it as a compliment.
I, on the other hand, get Molly Ringwald. That and, one time, Chelsea Clinton. I am doomed for life.

Admitted to Janeane Garofalo before...
The BAD one is, I've been told that I look like the kid from 'Matilda' and 'Miracle on 34th Street'.
By several people.
Including my mother.
I'M 26!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I used to get David Silver from 90210 alot, but I don't see that. I have also gotten Ben Afleck, but I don't see that either. I'll make it easy - here's a picture.

I used to get Ralph Macchio all the time when I was growing up. I thought maybe I could be his stunt double or something, but I dunno if he's getting much work these days.

When I was in HS people said I looked like Winnie from the Wonder Years, people would actually call me "Winnie" for fun. I had a boyfriend once who swore I was a dead ringer for Dita VonTeese (spelling?). She's that weird porn star that was or is dating Marilyn Manson, yikes. (I think he was just hoping that I would start dressing like her). She's very pretty, but yikes.

Steffi Graf - I have long hair in a ponytail
Britney Spears - my hair used to be blonde... but that is where all resemblance ends!!

I don't really ever get told anyone in particular....I guess I am an original! People always tell me I look exactly like my dad's sister...but that doesn't really help.
I think once I got Julia Roberts, but strictly because I have thick, reddish auburn hair, which she did also at the time.
Layback- the picture of your face is so small I could not make a comparison...I will take your word for it though!

A few weeks ago somebody told me I look like Lindsey Ambrose...must be the red hair :).
Everytime I go out I get Cuba gooding jr at least 3 times a night
and if i have a hat on , I get Tiger woods.
I barely take them as a compliment.
AGHHHHHHHHHHH

A mixture of Janet Jackson (face) and Angela Basset (body).
I guess I've given away my race;)

Pheobe from Friends. I'm not sure I see it, but she does sometimes remind me of my mom, and I know I have a strong resemblance to my mom. I can't think of anyone else.
I had a friend in hs though who was the spitting image of Natalie Merchant.

Laura on General Hospital of "Luke and Laura" fame. I've never watched the show, but after 2 people told me that, I looked her up online - I guess there is sort of a resemblance.

I've gotten Drew Barrymore, "that blonde girl from Dawson's Creek" and Bette Midler. Seriously.

In high school, I got a lot of Sean Yseult (http://www.geocities.com/devilmansean/sexorcisto.html) references (bassist from White Zombie), as well as a few Alanis Morissette comparisons. In later years, I've heard some Leelee Sobieski (actress: Joan of Arc, Glass House, etc) references. My partner agrees, to a certain extent w/all of the above, but also think I look like Jennifer Love-Hewitt...which I don't see.
I think I probably look a bit like Sean Yseult, w/a combo of Alanis/Leelee hair... Maybe...
