Celebrity Lookalikes

You know how there's some people on Earth that are like "Oh hey, yeah, you look JUST like (insert celebrity)." I am not one of those people. Mostly because I have eight different nationalities coursing through my blood (25% Polish, 25% Hungarian, 25% English, Irish, Scottish, 25% French, Dutch, Native American; although, because I'm built like a linebacker and I have the "Hungarian eyes", says a fellow Hungarian, I refer to myself as Eastern European). There have been a few ringers I've encountered, like the guy in my 11th grade video production class who looked just like Jimmy Neutron. Without further ado, these are the people that I have been told I look like over the course of my years. (Note: I tried to find photos on Photobucket that were as close looking to me as I thought, so I apologize if you're like 'Ruth, what the hell, these look nothing like you.' I sorta thought so and it's my blog so suck it.)

1. Nancy Kerrigan


Could it be the drop of Irish blood? The staunch athleticism? The bad knees or ability to cry and scream loudly when clubbed? I do not know. This is probably my most common, and usually by old people who probably can't see much past their trifocals anyway.

2. Evangeline Lily

Shit, I wish I could look this good. Thanks, ex-boyfriend's aunt!

3. Julia Roberts

Only by one person, Jake, and only because I show too much gum when I smile. And he meant this in a derogatory way.

4. Andie MacDowell

I would love to have her sweet Southern accent or endorse L'Oreal products at age 50 while still looking that good. One of my favorite actresses, I loved her in Groundhog Day (one of my all-time favs), Unstrung Heroes (I cried at the end, big shocker), Muppets From Space (highly underrated) and Dinner With Friends (makes me almost never want to get married...almost) but my favorite role is hands down, Four Weddings and a Funeral.


(le sigh) Love that movie. Would love to be up in Hugh Grant's business.

5. Julia Louis-Dreyfus, the later Seinfeld years

The leading lady in one of my favorite TV shows of all-time, I would love to play Elaine Benes in Seinfeld Musical 3: Get In the Picture or Seinfeld: The Early Years. Yeah she's 5'3", has brown eyes and skinny as hell. But Elaine in seasons 7 to 9 had a big smile, big hair and bad dance moves. Maybe we have more in common than meets the eye. And if you know about the me+drinks+cigars+jazz music, then the first picture is more humorous.

6. Janeane Garofalo

I don't think it's the looks as it is the lax wardrobe and the drier-than-a-fine-wine delivery of cutting sarcasm. My sense of humor is riddled with Garofaloisms, although I can't say I'm really a fan of hers. Not that I don't like her, but The Truth About Cats and Dogs still stands as one of the top five worst pieces of cinematic shit I've ever watched. The ending made me scream 'WHAT?!' Maybe I'd understand it more considering how I'm not eleven anymore but I knew what phone sex was then so I'm sure it won't make it any better.

Last note. I decided to do the FaceDouble application on Facebook where they place your face with a celebrity who might look like you. Guess who I got?

Nancy. Son of a bitch. The old folks were right.
