Celebrity Lookalikes: Who Do You Resemble?

[Deleted]

I feel vain even posting in this thread (hello, Catholic guilt, nice to see you again), but I thought it was funny enough to share. When I was in high school, back in the stone age the late 80's, I was a stagehand at the school theater, which was often rented out to professional companies. I was working the Nutcracker show, which went on long enough that you got to know the dancers pretty well. The young ballerinas got it in their heads that I looked like Richard Grieco, and you may recall that he had that 21 Jump Street spinoff Booker on the air. Well, for the entire two weeks they called me "Booker." I didn't mind it, as they were nice girls, but Richard Grieco? Yeesh.

Hey, Richard Grieco was dead sexy back in the day, if a bit of a douche.

Mine is Christina Ricci. I hear it constantly, and have even done a double take myself ("WTF am I doing on that magazine cover?!") What's so irritating is that every damned person thinks they're the first to think/mention it. I get this at least once a day, said incredulously every time: "WOW! Do you know who you look like?"

YES. YES I DO.

Aaaaaargh.
