Over 25 years I have been compared to many actors /singers etc...to the point that it's not funny any more - especially as they represent a wide range (as I have aged probably) and none look anything like each other.

I was sweating my arse off on a farm bailer a few years ago and my farmer's son mate compared me to Craig Daniel - which is ridiculous...as most people would tell you...

It's one of those situations where people would say 'Eh?'. But the person at the time saw the resemblence, that's the thing.

When I grow a beard for a week or two I have recently discovered I have a passing resemblance to Hugh Jackman - and actually - I can see it - the inane grin mostly...but I have to have the beard or the resemblance fails...
it's all or nothing, in other words.

I asked my wife how it was possible to be compared to so many different people and she said:

"well you are white and good looking - what do you expect?"

Liar.

It's akin to Himself claiming he looks like Keanu Reeves.

I've told him over and over.. it's more like Jim Reeves.

My boss looks like Kevin Costner. A couple of years ago we did a celebrity look-alike thingy for Christmas and we had John Howard, Patrick Stewart, Kevin Costner and Eddie Murphy as Professor Klump.
