I’ve come to terms with the idea that I’m not exactly a classic beauty, but please, couldn’t at least one of my [celebrity lookalikes](http://blog.360.yahoo.com/blog-Sut.pNslbK.O7HT0Rota3RFYnA--;_ylt=Am8mOcgO40REg8lG_AAEAlO0AOJ3?cq=1) have been female? ---

NICK NOLTE?? COME ON NOW!! I don’t think any of the pics they generated even come close to you, **twickster**. Makes me intrigued to see what they’d come up with for me, though. ---

I’m pretty sure when you do that there’s a box where you click your sex. You probably just missed it! ---

Mine included six females and four males (none of whom I recognized – who the hell is Jared Padelecki?). The females included Roseanne Barr :eek: , Demi Moore, Keira Knightley, and Kathy Bates! ---

Well, one of the advantages of not being a particularly handsome man is that there’s a good chance that the lookalikes they come up with will be better looking than me. Jared Leto is my closest match! (FTR, I don’t resemble Jared Leto in the least, so all you ladies can keep those PM’s with your phone #'s to yourselves! 😃 ) I also supposedly resemble Terry Gilliam, Alicia Silverstone, David Ben Gurion, Barbara Streisand, Keira Knightley, Goldie Hawn and Hirosue Ryoko. Obviously, we’re just getting random spews of celebrity pics here and there’s no face recognition analysis going on at all. ---

Hey! I’m a [dead ringer](http://www.myheritagefiles.com/I/storage/site1/files/00/16/31/001631_43694563a84474tafsh293.JPG) for Heath Ledger! Er, more or less. Still, that’s what I’m going to tell everyone. Personally I think Kris Kristofferson is closer. ---

Those matchups are based entirely on points of reference on the facial features. The shape of your smile and the tilt of your head are somewhat similar to Jonas Salk; head tilt is the only thing you and Nolte have in common; there is no explaining any of the others, except that I always thought Josh Groban had a sweetly feminine look about him. I’ve seen your photo on the Dope a few times, and I was always reminded of Jill Clayburgh. ---

Apparently, an old, very posed, black and white photo, of me looks like Maria Menounos and Amisha Patel or at least 64% like them (which is the highest percentage I got). No clue who they are. Maybe I should walk around with a black & white filter surrounding me. Do they make those? ---

My first photo apparently looked like both Angelina Jolie AND Billy Bob Thornton. I don’t know whether to laugh or cry. ---

This is like **freckafree** getting Roseanne and Keira Knightley – not only at opposite ends of the pulchritude scale, but the BMI scale as well.
