Have you ever been mistaken for someone else?

[hbk4894]

so i was listening to the radio before and they were talking to people who have been mistaken for celebrities while they have been out and about so was just wondering have you ever been mistaken for someone else?

i a few weeks ago got called Dylan for some reason by some guy when my name is not Dylan.

 

[dolf]

that girl out of that porno.

the guy was convinced.

 

[Riles]

I had a client who insisted I was his wife.

....but to my knowledge neither were famous.

 

[Eyereadtoo]

Jesus. Yep, THAT Jesus.

 

[CandiCame]

No one famous. I've been mistaken for my brother and for a cousin who does look kinda similar to me.

 

[Lancecastor]

Pierce Brosnan forwards calls for me made to him in error all the time.

He's quite gracious about it.

 

[Adre]

Chuck Norris. The beard, sunglasses, and sitting in a black Jeep Wrangler may have influenced it.

 

[Never]

Yes.

I've been mistaken for someone who gives a shit.

 

[bronzeage]

From the age of about 35 to 45, people thought I resembled a prominent actor. It was really just the beard, after a while I got tired of it, because they couldn't remember his name. I had to listen to a list of his movies, with them wanting to me to guess who they were talking about.

Fortunately, we grew apart, so it doesn't much these days.

 

[Que]

Canky?

 

[toubab]

Not seriously, I don't think, but if I had a nickle for every time I've been told in the past I looked like a certain celebrity I'd have a lot of nickles.

 

[AZMotherLover]

Jesus. Yep, THAT Jesus.

Happens to me all the time. Must be the long hair and the beard.

I had an old woman in a grocery store tell me I look like Jesus. Random.

 

[Sebfabian]

yes, once i was mistaken for lee marvin, look

[Arlan]

I have been mistaken for a ghost.

[Que]

Howie Mandel. At first I was offended even when she explained she thinks Howie is sexy (takes all kinds), but at 22 she has never seen his awful stand-up so she only knows him as the host of that game show.

Next time I was in town, I grew a Van Dyke and darkened it with an eyebrow pencil and wore a dobuble-breasted navy blazer. She thought that was great.

 

[Not Normal]

I also get Jesus a lot.

Many moons ago I was at a show at Northwestern headlinded by the Jayhawks with Chocago local Red Red Meat opening. At the time I had shorter, still curly hair and glasses. There were a number of students who were doing double takes and whispering to each other, thinking I was Gary Louris of the Jayhawks, watching Red Red Meat opening. I blew it that night, I should have used that to get laid.

 

[pointless]

yeah, but no one famous.

which is fine with me.

[1sickbastard]

At various times in my life, I've been told I look like:
Bono
Eddie Vedder
Jeff Bridges
James Woods (yah, I really don't get that one)

 

[parodyluvr75]

Someone told me once, I looked like Zoey Deschenal in the yes man movie. I don't see it, she doesn't even have feathers.

That is plucked up!

the coroner once mistook me for this dead guy they had autopsied last week. She kind of freaked when I walked up and patted her ass .

the dead person was nobody you ever knew so it was not that much of a compliment. Funny, she did say something about me looking better last week. I am not sure how to take that.

Well she did open the other guy up, and though beauty is skin-deep, ugly is to the bone. ..Or something.

I've only been mistaken for a human. It's a common mistake. I think it's all in how I style my back hair. *nods*
