Celebrities sometimes have more in common than talent and style. Ever heard of doppelgangers? This is not just an urban legend, show business proves it. Many celebs don’t have to go far to find their “twin” because they are already close by. Have some fun comparing these 14 pairs of A-listers who look like they could have been separated at birth.
1. Zoe Saldana and Thandie Newton
No, you aren’t seeing double! Zoe Saldana and Thandie Newton look so much alike that when Saldana’s own mother saw Newton on a poster for the movie Crash, she mistook Newton for her daughter. Wow!
2. Katy Perry and Zooey Deschanel
When you think celebrity look-alikes, you think of these two. Although actress Zooey Deschanel used to get annoyed when she would get confused for the singer, after meeting Katy Perry she was stunned to find that they really are like two peas in a pod. Now the two never miss an opportunity to snap a picture together whenever they meet up.
3. Ashley Graham and Eva Mendes
Beyond having sun-kissed skin, these two beloved celebrities also have soft waves in their hair and brown eyes. Model Ashley Graham and actress Eva Mendes , look like long-lost sisters. Don’t you think?
4. Demi Moore and Courteney Cox
Actresses Demi Moore and Courteney Cox are further proof that non-biological twins do exist. They even use their similar looks to confuse their fans: from joking with posts on social media to wearing similar glasses (see this photo taken at an event in Los Angeles). There are many more photos like this one, demonstrating that they like having their double around.
5. Margot Robbie and Jaime Pressly
These famous blondes show that despite an age difference of 13 years, their skin does not show it. Can you tell which of these two is Margot Robbie and which is Jaime Pressly?
6. Hilary Swank and Jennifer Garner
Hilary Swank has lost count of how many times she’s been confused for fellow actress Jennifer Garner. This comes as no surprise; they look as if they both came from the same mold. In fact, Swank admitted to Conan O‘Brien that when she is getting confused for Garner, “people will get angry at me because they think I’m just trying not to sign an autograph for them or take a picture.”
7. Jennifer Lawrence and Bella Hadid
Even though Jennifer Lawrence wears her hair blonde and Bella Hadid is a brunette, their striking resemblance still shines through. The actress and the model, who are both American, could easily pass as sisters. They could probably even switch places without anyone noticing!
8. Khloé Kardashian and Karol G
9. Natalie Portman and Keira Knightley
These two actresses could change places for a day and we wouldn’t blame you for not noticing. Whether they’re wearing their hair wavy, straight, long or short, their semblance is striking.
Keira even told Infobae “I get chased through airports by people who think I’m Natalie Portman.”
10. Isla Fisher and Amy Adams
Despite the fact that they do not have the same color eyes, Hollywood stars Amy Adams and Isla Fisher both have beautiful red hair and features that many people get mixed up.
They look so similar that, as Fisher told Insider, Fisher pranked her friends and family by using a photo of Adams in a family holiday card. They didn’t notice!
11. Hilary Duff and Victoria Pedretti
Hilary Duff had to be on this list. She just found her “double” in 2020 with Netflix series star Victoria Pedretti.
Although Duff is 32 and Pedretti is 24, their features are similar enough that fans have started commenting about their resemblance on social media. What do you think?
12. Selena Gomez and Lucy Hale
The similar eyes and smiles shared by Selena and Lucy are what landed them on this list. Both celebrities are used to being confused for the other by now. Of course, this bob cut especially makes them look even more similar.
13. Anne Hathaway and Amal Clooney
American actress Anne Hathaway looks a lot like Amal Clooney , something the actress is quite happy with. “I hope that one day I become half the woman she is,” Anne told Extra.
14. Jessica Chastain and Bryce Dallas Howard
Not only are these redheads from the same state (California), they’re also almost the same height and look so undeniably similar that they’ve been known to joke about it.
In May 2015, as Insider pointed out, Jessica Chastain shared a funny photo on Instagram joking how people still think she and Bryce Dallas Howard are the same person.
