schmorgasboard face.

I've never gotten one consistent "You look like ________ (fill in the blank with celebrity)"

However, I have been compared to quite the random selection of celebrities:
Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen
Molly Ringwald
Julia Roberts
Fiona Apple
Alanis Morisette
Dave Reichle's ex-girlfriend Marla

I don't really see any of them. Except Alanis. And she has a horse face, so I'm not to keen on that.

My mom looks almost exactly like Jackie O. It's uncanny. Almost everyday people tell me I look familiar...and a couple of times people have said that Jackie O thing.

i think people usually base the "you look like..." on haircuts and color.

the two i usually get are catherine keener and franka potente. most frequently was catherine after being john malkovich when my hair looked similar, and franka when bourne identity came out and my hair was also similar. i have gotten comments about those two before when i didnt have similar hair (run lola run anyone?) but not as frequently, so they probably involve some facial features (namely they and i have the same big nose), but usually the hair.

yeah so my "you look like....." changes according to the following: hair cut, hair color, weight, and age; which concludes that I don't really look like any of the people just portions of me.
With that in mind....I usually get the following:

1.Joan Cusack: I had red hair for a short time, that combined with my big eyes and over expressions landed me the cherished role of John's sister.
2. Uma Thurman: I got this one mostly when I was 13 and a rail. Every once in a while (on a skinny day) I'll get the Uma comparison. The funny thing is I never really found her to be an attractive person. Oh well
3. Rachel Dratch: This is probably the worst possible, but I have resorted to considering it a compliment based on the fact that Rachel is an expressively hilarious woman and I well ....I hope that is why I get compared.
4. Most recently I have been told I resemble Amy Poehler. I guess it is the blonde hair blue eye thing.

Hellooooo Linds. What about the girl from Last of the Mohicans who commits suicide by throwing herself off a cliff at the end of the movie (Cora's younger sister)? I have told you for years that you look like her.
