Lookalikes
>> Monday, July 6, 2009
For some reason, I get the 'have we met before?', 'where do I know you from?' or the 'you really remind me of...' ALL THE TIME! Tonight I was someone's cousin, a couple weeks ago some swore they saw my dobbelganger in Montana (I was in Norway of course) and tonight I was Dr. Brennan from Bones. (I've never seen the show, is this at all accurate? Apparently we have similar eyes and voices).
The most shocked I have ever been was two separate occasions when people compared me to Carmen Electra. Is that a compliment or not? Besides reminding people so much of their aunts, cousins and old best friends from elementary school, I have gotten a long list of celebrity lookalikes--Alyssa Milano, Nicole Kidman (silly Spaniards), Julia Roberts and Rachel McAdams (specifically from Wedding Crashers). Oh yeah, not to mention there was a couple weeks last summer when a group of my coworkers actually talked about me (before we were introduced) as the girl that looks like Kate from LOST (Evangeline Lilly).
Does this happen to everyone? Do you find any truth in these comparisons? I find it endlessly baffling that people always associate me so quickly with other people...why does this happen? Strange...

LOL! Dr. Brennan from Bones is Justin's freebie ;)
While you and she are both definitely hot, I don't think you guys look or sound very much alike. But you are definitely one of those "Don't I know you?" people.
As far as comparisons go, your list is decent (except for Nicole Kidman and Julia Roberts, unless you're into plastic women and grouper fish mouths). I apparently look like Vincent D'Onofrio in Full Metal Jacket, which is creepy.
I think you look like your Momma...hee hee
