Best, I guess: Maya Rudolph Worst, hands down: Roseanne Barr- Only once. I was MC’ing a high school lunch time auction and I thought ( I knew, haha) that I was funny. Some kid asked me if I thought I was Roseanne. ugg. ---

That’s a low blow. Someone told me that I look like Malcolm Forbes, Jr. ---

Growing up in the 70’s, I was constantly told that I looked like John Denver. In the last month, I’ve been told twice that I look like Dan Aykroyd. ---

My punk roommate in the 1970s bore a striking resemblance to Arnold Stang. ---

Twenty plus years ago, a 6 year-old girl told me I looked like Kathy Bates. ---

Fine. Al Pacino about a hundred times. Even I have to admit I do. Well, I don’t have to admit it but I could be his stunt man. If he ever needed one which he never did except in Serpico. I can’t see Al catching that 18 year old black kid as he ran down an alley. I have actually done that, though. ---

Worst: I always figured I looked like Pavarotti or Chef Paul Prudhomme or Sebastian Cabot. Though, nobody else said so. Best: a friend with both cultural literacy and a good eye for style told me that, no, I look like Richard Dreyfus. Good, nice, I like that. I asked my wife if she thought so, and she said yes she could see that. But she also thought I looked like George Clooney. I’m almost afraid to buy into that self image, tho… ---

I used to get Gillian Anderson as a teen. Mostly because of coloring, I think. I’m a blue-eyed redhead, and she had her hair dyed almost exactly my shade of titian to play Agent Scully. I asked one of the internet face-matcher thingies, and it says I look like… Jane Seymour. Huh. Pulling up photos from her Bond Girl days, when she also had a good yard of hair, that actually isn’t a bad match.

20 years ago, back when I had long hair, people would occasionally say that I looked like Johnny Depp. Nowadays… not so much. Must be the short hair :dubious:. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/what-celeb-do-people-say-you-look-like/664912.md?page=9)
