I was just watching TMZ and Bam Magera from "Jackass" was on. He looks exactly like a friend of mine.

I've been told I remind them of Ally Sheedy when she was in "The Breakfast Club" and I was once told I look like Ashley Judd. I WISH!

So, who do you look like?

What can I do next?

No, no one famous.
But I get told frequently, that I look like someone that someone knows. Just everyday common people.

I dont get the celebrity thing. I do get that I look alot like my sister's..Which makes me laugh:) Cause all three of us girls look like we could be twins to the next one....My older sister and I hated going out together with our mom when we were younger..They always wanted to know who the ''Older''twin was.

My little sister says she hates looking at me...Cause she knows exactly how she will look when she is almost 30...I am not sure if that is a good thing or a bad thing...I would like to think for almost 30 I look pretty good;p

No complaints on looking like me:)

My Dad used to say I reminded him of Suzanne Pleschett - and since he though she was one of the prettiest woman he had ever seen I took it as a great compliment.
Mostly I look like my Mom and Grandma - you can't escape the Sicilian genes.

Kirsten Dunst :) The first time I heard this was about 10 years ago from my little nephew, he said "I think it's the eyes". How perceptive for a kid! And I have heard it from a couple of others since then, although she is 10 years younger than me, I can see it too. Oh and I used to get Mary Stuart Masterson from the movie Some Kind of Wonderful. I was a bit of a tomboy growing up and my hair was like hers in the movie (coincidentally), I think that is really where the resemblance was. Fun question!!

answers from Pocatello on

hahaha... I dont think I do...

But when I was in highschool I dyed my hair blond and cut it short. I was on a public bus and this lady kept looking at me... I was about ready to ask her if she "needed anything..." when she leaned forward and said... "meg?"

I paused, my name is M. after all but I had know idea who this lady was... Her eyes lighted up and she said "Oh my... Meg Ryan?"

hahahahahahaha.... "Nope, not Meg Ryan..."

Of course, Meg Ryan is 26 years older than I am... so I wasn't sure at 16 weather it was real compliment or not! I don't think I look like her at all... but I thought it was funny anyways!
