Look-Alike Contest Winners: theMonica Inspired Edition

In my continuing effort to give the people what they want (i.e. more stuff that they tell me to blog, rather than that which I choose), here is a look-alike requested by my beloved . . .

It's sensi-rock superstar James Blunt and 2-time NBA MVP Steve Nash. A couple of years ago Nash won a different Look-Alike contest, but he's back today for more looking-like other celebrities.

I won't go into my feelings on James Blunt other than to say I do a mean impression of one of these guy's inability to sing. I'll give you two guesses.

Look-Alike Contest Winners: Celebrities in Nature Edition

Welcome once again to Look-Alike Contest Winners. I have other of these spread out through the blog, but I'm too lazy to get the links right now. Enough of that, on to the winners . . .


Mary Kate Olsen and a walking stick. Poor girl. Her sis weighs like 4 ounces more and no one gives her any trouble.


You know, for a long time, Richard Gere was the most talented rat in all of Hollywood. Damn you Stuart Little!


Paris Hilton, Penelope Cruz and a seagull. I think the seagull is kind of pissed off that I'm making the comparison.


Lara Flynn-Boyle, Nicole Ritchie and Lindsay Lohan heard there was an opening as Grateful Dead mascots.

(Ladies of Hollywood - Please eat a sandwich - like once a day.)

Look-Alike Contest Winners

This one is cross-generational (don't tell Woody), but I was watching the new Weezer video and was thoroughly disturbed.



Hey Rivers, not sure 70-year-old pedophile is a good look for you (or anyone for that matter). It might be time for a haircut and a new pair of specs.

Separated at Birth Look-Alike Contest Winner: Clarification

Generally when I'm constructing a separated at birth, I'll go to google images and search for pictures there. Usually, if my idea has been done already, I'll find an example of it. Sometimes though, it's not readily apparent. This happened recently when I got the idea for a Separated at Birth with Maria Shriver and 80's cartoon super-villain Skeletor. When searching for Maria and Skeletor pictures separately, I didn't encounter the S@B. But when I searched together, I found this. This blogger calls them "twins", but the thought's the same (they both resemble skeletons. Incidentally, I don't know what the blog title or sub-title mean). That being said, I am not exhaustive in my searching for someone preemptively stealing my brilliant ideas. I can't be held accountable for web denizens that also possess a time machine, travel into the future, steal my separated at births ideas, travel back to the the past and then publish the picture, before I was inevitably going to in the future that could no longer exist. For one thing, it's a great big world wide web and I have tiny amounts of gray matter and even tinier numbers of ideas. As the blog title implies, it's highly unlikely that I would have both a clever and UNIQUE idea about something (then I would have to rename the blog: Truly Clever). So hey, I'm sorry if I unwittingly copy other peoples' ideas.

Incidentally, this category shall now be called "Look-Alike Contest Winners". Over the past 45 minutes of looking, S@B has become too ubiquitous and cliche (I call this "tacky God" syndrome). The new name suggests that if one of the people entered the other's Annual Look-Alike Contest, the featured contestants would surely win the other's contest in which entered - you know what I mean. By the by, if you're here from the past, could you please use your time machine for the forces of good?
