Or do you dream about having Tom Cruise’s green eyes? Oftentimes, you look at the mirror and see yourself feeling so good and dashy!

You look at your photos and then you ask yourself, “Who do I look like?” When you dress up for work or simply for hangouts with your friends, you imitate what your favorite celebrity is wearing or sometimes just copy his/her style. There’s no harm in that. Almost everyone idolizes a certain celebrity anyway, right? Well, why not try to find your celebrity lookalike?

It’s not everyone’s fault that they sometimes don’t remember celebrities to be regular people just like most of us. They trip over staircases. They have acne. They have bad hair days too.

It goes without saying that celebs have their fair share of mishaps even in the looks department. Celebrities even have lookalikes themselves. Riverdale’s Lili Reinhart even resembles Sarah Gadon in the movie Are You Afraid of the Dark? Well, have seen both Karen Khachanov and Liam Hemsworth? Pause for a while and then Google both of them.

The resemblance is uncanny! Have you seen Jennifer Lawrence in The Hunger Games? Who does she remind you of? If your answer is Bella Hadid, then we’re on the same track. Heck, Kim Kardashian with her new look even looked a lot like Naya Rivera from the hit musical series Glee. Kaia Gerber and Rachel Bilson could even pass as sisters! You see, even celebrities have lookalikes that could even pass as their body doubles.

Needless to say, we all have lookalikes out there in the world. He or she is possibly just roaming around the city streets halfway around the globe eating sushi at a restaurant somewhere or drinking a hot macchiato in a local coffee shop. If that is true, then you most probably have someone you look like too — celeb or not. But would you just love it if you looked like a celeb yourself?
