Okay, now, this is just fascinating. If you upload a photo of your face to this site, it will analyze that photo and tell you which celebrities you most resemble. I wouldn't have picked Holly Hunter as the celebrity I look like the most, but according to MyHeritage.com, the photo at the left (i.e., my face) bears a 74% likeness to her. Which is totally cool and fine by me, but I'm utterly mystified at the other folks they picked for resemblance to me:
Ashley Olsen - 74% (the blonde?)
Vivien Leigh - 73% (sweet!)
Johnny Depp - 72% (I've thought about this and decided I'm flattered)
Isabelle Adjani - 72% (not bad!)
Victoria Beckham - 71% -- okay, now those are fighting words, because Posh Spice, in addition to an awful singing voice, more money than Colonel Sanders and a profoundly hot -- if adulterous -- husband, has a major case of pig-face. I have my swinish moments, to be sure, but I like to think I don't wear them on my face. I mean, come on!
What's weird about this to me is that they didn't mention the two celebrities I think I most resemble: Janeane Garofalo at her heavier, non-blonde stages and a double-wide Jennifer Connelly. Maybe I'm kidding myself. Ah, well. There are certainly worse things than looking like Holly Hunter -- there's looking like Ashley Olsen and Posh Freaking Spice.
