My sister is going to marry a guy that's been told he looks like a 'younger Christpher Walken' which would be bad enough. But the truth is, he looks just like HARPO MARX!
The boobs are real; the smile is fake.

I probably should have put this thread in another forum, but I was too lazy to click over and set it up there :)

Harpo Marx was quite handsome.

I don't look like anyone famous, but my husband has been told that he looks like Charlie Chaplin (not dressed as the Tramp!) and a younger Will Sergeant (no kidding).

Just the other day my coworker saw the current wallpaper on my phone (it's Will) and asked if it was my husband. Good stuff.

Well, girlwithnoname, at least you didn't inherit your daddy's looks seeing as your Arnold's love child and all :)

I've been told I look like Sarah Jessica Parker and when "Dirty Dancing" came out, people said I looked like Jennifer Grey, and I'll take it. But I'd rather have their bank accounts :)

Wouldn't we all?

BTW, that picture you've been threatening to post....I for one would like to see it! (The one of you and Will)

Unfortunately, you can't just upload it, you have to link from a website URL like photobucket.

I've alternately been told Eminem, James Dean (a looooooooooong time ago), Morrissey, some dude from the Sopranos and Pee Wee Herman.
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

my kids said I look 'like the bloke on the airline adverts. Then the landlady down my local said, ere FC, we were talking the other day and reckon you look like that kevin spacey. Cant see it myself. Though my bro is obviously a bitof a lookey-likey, been out with him a few times recently and people keep pointing at him and coming over and having a chat. He reckons its his animal magnetism. I reckon its billy connoly, though his hair and beard are a bit robert planty too if you ask me.

They used to say I looked like Breakfast Club/St. Elmo's Fire - era Judd Nelson, back when I was thin and had hair... Later on, I was told I resembled Jon Lovitz.

Sad, really.

I just remembered someone told me once that I looked like Isabella Rossellini, which I don't see. She has a cuter nose, though we both have the same jawline.

That's not the adds from the Little Britain guys about their take on all the goings on at the airport?

Apparently, back in the '80's, I was told I looked like Ian Rush! :eek: Now, when I'm wearing my specs, I get told I either look like Paul O'Grady or Vic Reeves!!! Bastards!

In the 80's I was told I looked like Young Sherlock Holmes from that movie, but it may have been the pipe and hat I favored then.

I felt like I looked more like Eric Stoltz in Mask.

Is that James Dean before or after he took the Little Bastard out for a spin?
