I get told Farrah Fawcett. Don’t you see it? A few times Judy Collins, because of the eyes. One I’ve always gotten because of the eyes, for so long, is Gene Wilder. I know that sounds weird. I’m going to tell him that when I meet him.

Blake Davis

From Mission Valley (Waiter)

Maybe two months ago at work, someone said I looked like Steven Seagal. I don’t know if it was just because of the hair or what, because I don’t think I really look like him. When I was growing up, I heard Jason Bateman a lot. I think when people are told they look like someone, a lot depends on what shows are popular or what hairstyles people have.

Julie Campbell

From Hillcrest (Server)

Someone just said Katie Holmes, but I’ve never heard that before. If I’m told that I look like someone, it’s usually Mandy Moore or Britney Spears. And it will be really random places that I hear it. Sometimes I’m at work, other times I’m out and about, and a person will just walk up and say, “You know, you look like Mandy Moore.”

Hillary Johnson

From Kensington (Marketing)

I was told I looked like Janeane Garofalo once. That was about ten years ago. It was a guy I worked with. Maybe he meant because of my personality. I hope that is what he meant. I haven’t heard it again since that one time.

Jerry Hopkins

From Ramona (Teacher)

I get told I look like Jason, from the Friday the 13th movies. I probably don’t look like the actor when he isn’t wearing the hockey mask to kill people. Oh, and Hannibal “the Cannibal” Lecter. But I only get told I look like those two people when I put tortillas on my face.
