I used to get Michelle Pfeiffer, which I didn't really see ever.

Lately I've been getting (the "new") Avril Lavinge, which I guess I can sort of see a little bit (at least in my one headshot...).

That's really it tho... I don't get too much of that "hey you look like..." in general.  I'm not sure I care to.

I'd say you remind me of Raquel Welch, more than the other two names mentioned.

I remember when Titanic first hit the theaters... I was coloring my hair red at the time, it's naturally curly and every where I went at the time I got, "You look like the girl from Titanic!". My friends said the same thing. So some think I look like Kate Winslet. A couple of friends must have been on crack and told me I looked like Shania Twain (I so don't look like her.... in my DREAMS!). And once a couple of people said Geena Davis, but I can't see that one either. I can see little things that resemble Kate Winslet though, so to me that is the only one that doesn't seem too far fetched.

I've heard Reese Witherspoon, Cameron Diaz, Madonna, Ashlee Simpson & when I was younger I heard Stephanie off of Full House. Which I really did look like her when I was younger, but not anymore!
People just see different parts of your personality that probably reminds them of a celeb.

Rod Steiger...least that is what some old folks have said. I apparently also have a non-famous twin in the Nashville area...several times I have been involved in conversations with people in stores who are convinced I am some other guy...I just go along with them...ask them how they've been...I bet it is real funny when they try to convince this "twin" that they just saw him at the grocery store the week before, and he denies it completely...

I used to have people come up to me all the time and ask me if I was Bruce Willis.
Unfortunately, as I get older I share his hairline as well.

you look like tyra in one of your photos. The straight on shot of you in the shirt(like in your avatar) with your chin up and the shirt pulled off of one shoulder. There you look like tyra to me but maybe the halle comes out in person?

Lucky me ... I get Cher.... Morticia, Wednesday,and  most recently I hear Samara ( the charicter from the movie the ring) But my favorites are Kali & Diamanda Galas... ( i think she is beautiful though so i am always flattered)
When my hair was red I heard Carrie From the movie Carrie...
But i think people were playing hair and name  associations, i have also heard things like a classic , a stick, a mop, a banshee ,a witch and a wanton beast.
Kinda funny...

It depends how I have my hair, when I have it up and pulled back from my face I get Natalie Portman (I wish! lol) and Anne hathaway...with my hair down, and straightened I get Liv Tyler, ...I also get Nicole Kidman, but not in terms of looks, more in terms of facial expressions and stuff, apparently,
I do not actually see a resemblence to ANY of these pple however, other than the brown hair and pale skin, but hey I take it as a compliment!
