Morgan Freeman &\u00a0Kofi Anan<\/h3>\n
\"Kofi

When Kofi Anan first addressed the world as the 7th Secretary-General of the United Nations, Morgan Freeman fans had an unimaginable shock.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Why give up Hollywood to make the world a better place? Last time we checked the UN had no real authority and Russia could veto their decisions at any moment.<\/p>\n

Moreover, Kofi Anan is not the only celebrity often mistaken for Morgan Freeman. Nelson Mandela gets the same treatment, mostly because the South African President was portrayed by Freeman in \u201cInvictus.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pee-wee Herman &\u00a0Alan Cumming<\/h3>\n

To be honest, we do not expect you do know much about these two characters.<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

You are most likely born a bit too late to get a taste of the magic put to show by Paul Rubens. The American comedian created and portrayed the icon Pee-wee Herman.<\/p>\n

Well, some would prefer saying that it was Pee-wee played who played Rubens. The actor was so attached to the role that helped launch his career that they dedicated the star on the Hollywood to the character and not the actor.<\/p>\n

You do not have to stretch your perception too far to see there is an uncanny resemblance between the beloved fictional character and another major Hollywood actor \u2013 Alan Cumming.<\/div>\n

Jaime Pressly &\u00a0Margot Robbie<\/h3>\n
\"Margot

Margot Robbie is part of the new wave of young actors that is gradually replacing the dinosaurs in Hollywood.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is certainly frustrating for the 26-year-old to see fans mistake her with much older Jaime Pressly (39). But animosity exists in both directions. Given the recent Harley Quinn hysteria, Pressly was bombarded with requests for autographed in the days leading to Halloween.<\/p>\n

Margot Robbie might be just a copy of Jaime Pressly, but she is better than the original. We all watched how the Australian star saved \u201cSuicide Squad\u201d from a being a complete disaster. And it wasn\u2019t only her shorts that did the job.<\/p>\n

Portia de Rossi & Drea de Matteo<\/h3>\n
\"Drea
via Viralscape<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

These two celebrities went into a lot of trouble just because they look very much the same.<\/strong><\/p>\n

If Drea de Matteo received a dollar each time someone asked her about her sexual preferences and the marriage with Ellen DeGeneres, she would be a millionaire today.<\/p>\n

The two are equally gorgeous and only one year age difference separates them. However, male fans have long sent to the recycle bin their fantasies with Portia de Rossi. The actress revealed her true nature in 2005, ending a long run of speculations.<\/p>\n

Mike Tomlin & Omar Epps<\/h3>\n
\"Omar
via Viralscape<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The next couple of celebrities that are identical brings us to an old stereotype. All African-Americans look the same.<\/strong><\/p>\n

You have to be in Mike Tomlin\u2019s skin to know the struggle of having Omar Epps as your Hollywood doppelganger. The head coach of Pittsburg Steelers was stopped many times on the street by enthusiastic fans.<\/p>\n

Contrary to what you expected, they did not want to discuss the next game\u2019s strategy. All they wanted to know from Dr. Eric Foreman was if the next case will finally be the one with Lupus as the correct diagnostic.<\/p>\n

Isla Fisher &\u00a0Amy Adams<\/h3>\n
\"Amy
via Viralscape<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

When you admire a gorgeous woman, your mind rejects all other information.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This explains why the strange similarities between Isla Fischer and Amy Adams survived so long unnoticed. Apart from the color of the eyes, the two are virtually identical.<\/p>\n

At least if we judge from the age perspective, Isla (40) is the clone. She was \u201cdeveloped\u201d two years after Amy (42), and we hope that they still have the blueprints.<\/p>\n

Anne Hathaway &\u00a0Krysten Ritter<\/h3>\n
\"Krysten
via Totally Look Alikes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The shocking similarities between Krysten Ritter and Anne Hathaway reveal to us that technology is far more advanced than they tell on TV.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cloning machines exist and are fully functional. Everything has been there, in front of our eyes. It all became known once the photos of the two gorgeous actresses were put side by side.<\/p>\n

Of course, deciding which was the original and which is the copy is challenging. Lacking further information, we have to pay homage to the hierarchies existing in Hollywood. The former Catwoman wins because her accolades stretch to include more roles and awards.<\/p>\n

Chad Smith & Will Ferrell<\/h3>\n
\"Chad
via Rolling Stone<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Back in 2014, everyone made an appointment to the eye doctor to check for double vision.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The reason was simple. People were seeing two Chad Smith competing against each other on TV. To settle the debate, \u201cThe Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon\u201d orchestrated a drum-off. As it turns out, the pretender was none other than Will Ferrell.<\/p>\n

Indeed, the beloved actor and the drummer of Red Hot Chili Peppers are like two peas in a pod. However, their ability to master the drum set made the difference.<\/p>\n

Kenny G & Weird Al<\/h3>\n
\"Kenny
via Viralscape<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Mistaking Kenny G for Weird Al is like a rite of passage for those learning their way in the fascinating world of celebs.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Both are musicians, and both have crazy hair. Age and continuous exposure to the spotlights helped their faces look the same. However, similarities end here. While Kenny G takes his music very seriously, Weird Al is at the opposite end of the spectrum.<\/p>\n

Yankovic is an artist that made use of popular culture to his fame. Parodies of famous songs are genuine masterpieces of a highly controversial genre. Chances are someone in showbiz yelled \u201cStop making fun of me!\u2019 at poor Kenny G.<\/p>\n

Katy Perry &\u00a0Zooey Deschanel<\/h3>\n
\"Zooey
via Getty Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The fact that Zooey Deschanel has a singing career that goes in parallel with her acting explains why many fans mistake her with Katy Perry.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The heavy make-up around the eyes and baby face makes it easy to mix it all up regarding names. Add the fact that both of them are sweethearts that populate your dreams.<\/p>\n

Although there is no proof of someone committing a blunder live on TV, this doppelganger case is like a ticking bomb. We can all agree that Steve Harvey is a man fit for the job.<\/p>\n

Elijah Wood &\u00a0Mischa Barton<\/h3>\n
\"Mischa
via Viralscape<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Mischa Barton was close to a heart attack when she saw the naked beast yell \u201cPrecious\u201d at her.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Do not listen to the propaganda! Gollum did not die in the lava. His quest for the ring brought him outside Peter Jackson\u2019s studio, and on the streets of LA. Finding the Hobbit proved harder because Hollywood is the home of many unusual doppelganger cases.<\/p>\n

Indeed, it is easy to mistake Mischa Barton for Elijah Wood, as the two are equally cute.<\/p>\n

Jennifer Connelly & Daniel Day-Lewis<\/h3>\n
\"Jennifer
via The Scottish Sun<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

When you say that a woman looks like a man, it is hard to take it as a compliment.<\/strong><\/p>\n

However, when the one you use to compare is Daniel Day-Lewis, things begin to change. It is a real honor to have your name in the same sentence with that of an Oscar winner.<\/p>\n

Claiming that Jennifer is the daughter of Daniel Day-Lewis is not valid. The theory is easy to dismiss because there is only a fourteen-year age difference between the two. Nevertheless, Connelly\u2019s father was from Ireland, which makes a complicated genealogy possible across the Pond.<\/p>\n

Blake Lively & Ke$ha<\/h3>\n
\"Ke$ha
via Viralscape<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

What makes the two celebs look the same?<\/strong><\/p>\n

It all starts with those smoky eyes. You could blame fashion, but they have similar tastes regarding makeup and clothing style. To make the doppelganger case even more spectacular, the two were born in the same year. What are the odds?!<\/p>\n

Although Ke$ha\u2019s concerts and Blake\u2019s movies are far from being tangent, they do attract the same young audience. However, things stop at that level. While Blake embraced the real-life role of being a mother for two gorgeous daughters, Ke&ha is far from settling down with a family.<\/p>\n

\n

Peter Jackson &\u00a0Jason Segel<\/h3>\n
\"Jason
via Viralscape<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Jason Segel and Peter Jackson look oddly similar in the two pictures.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lacking any scientific explanation for the strange phenomenon, we can assume the obvious. At some point in time, the beloved actor and the prolific director had a common ancestor. What life separated, fame united.<\/p>\n

\u201cHow I Met Your Mother\u201d might be over, but producers still scratch their eyeballs in agony. Peter Jackson would have made possible many flashforwards for the Marshall Eriksen character.<\/p>\n

Stephen Colbert & Bob Saget<\/h3>\n
\"Stephen
via Viralscape<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Call us superficial, but we see no difference between Stephen Colbert and Bob Saget.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Both wear glasses, both have a great sense of humor, and both have an upward trending TV career. There are far too many similarities to label the case a coincidence.<\/p>\n

Was is scarier is that the process of unleashing celeb clones takes place in public view. There is no attempt to hide the facts, and no one censors articles covering the conspiracy like the one you read now.<\/p>\n
