Really light hearted (superficial and daft) even) thread

Jennifer Saunders?

I really don't know who I look like, I just know that I don't like what I see. I look in the mirror and think I'm looking at this funny looking old bat, then when I take a selfie I can't imagine that the horrible wrinkled face belongs to me. The wicked witch from Somewhere over the rainbow is much nicer.

I don’t look now ( or ever did) like anyone famous,
This is me hiding behind a furry owl given to me by a GDS
During the last lockdown

But you do look like someone famous, lemongrove! I just can't think who.
I thought that last time I saw your photo.

Or I met you somewhere, another time, another place

What's an avatar?

There's a film called Avatar, merlotgran which explains it better than I could

I've nothing to hide quizQueen but thanks for the reminder.

PS I tried it and just got autumn leaves!

Remember if you use an avatar here that you also use in other personal social media sites , a reverse search could identify you!!

Dawn French but taller

Jaxsjacky You looked something like SOPHIA LOREN!! Cripes, she was amazing ?

hollysteers weird, we cross posted on Sophia (cue spooky music)....

I was told as a young teenager, being made up for a school play, that I had Sophia Lorens cheekbones and about 15 years ago a couple of male friends said I looked like Sigourney Weaver. I’m now morphing into my Mum, no bad thing!

There seems to have been some doubt about my paternity ? but family can see my father in me (ugh) I hope I’ve turned into my darling mother.
Young? Cher/Judith Durham Now? Jane Macdonald BUT NOT THE VOICE (I do like a nice pie though ?) She’s years younger than me, so can’t complain.
Would like to come back looking like Sophia Loren/Nigella Lawson ?

I don't look like anyone famous but am very like my mother, grandmother and aunt.

During Lockdown I had a passing resemblance to Grayson Perry ?

My friend said,
"We were looking at pumpkins and I thought of you."
She went on to say,
" .....not that you look like one!"
...but the damage was done!

I look like Jennifer Lopez ???

I was just having a bad day!

This is Marydoll from page 1 of this thread.

I've had really short hair for years but of course it grew during lockdown 1.
I didn't get it cut as I quite fancy having it longer again and now I'm starting to resemble Marydoll.

I have been told I look like my maternal grandmother - pleased with that as I think she looked lovely on her wedding photo (married 1912). I definitely have inherited the Harrison brown eyes and the 'bump' on the bridge of my nose! Not surprising given that my grandmothers were sisters so my parents were first cousins, got double the Harrison genes!

I started life as a chemist and had to wear a green acid suit when I sampled stack gases, face mask, hard hat etc. The acid suits were always too big because they were made for men and I was 5ft 0ins. I was told I looked like a green ewok. I was never sure if it was a complement or not although I always loved them in Star Wars.

Norma Major, according to friends although she is dark and I’ve let my hair go white.

Sean Connery (not now- when he was in his seventies) and the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi.

When I was younger several people said I looked like Anita Harris. I couldn't see the likeness myself but would happily consider that a compliment now. I probably look more like Mr Blobby these days!

Took a while to work out how to insert the Avatar... my GD ‘helped’ me make this one... ?

When l was a bit (well, much) younger people used to tell me l either looked like Mary Quant or Kiki Dee. I look like their mothers now!
