Default Look like someone famous? Oooh, there's a story with it too!

Wow! I can't believe I forgot about this site.

Back in the year 2000, my old man bought a pub in a small country town called Elphinstone. One of the locals was a bloke who bared a horrifying resemblance to the man they call... **dramatic pause** ...Kenny Rogers.

From God knows where, my step brother and I found this website one night while screwing about on the interweb and straight away set ourselves the goal of getting a photo of him and posting it on this very site without him knowing, then showing him the page.

We never did manage that, but somehow the site has popped back into my mind from seemingly nowhere and so I figured I'd mention it here and see if anyone maybe cares to contribute.

The site is http://www.menwholooklikekennyrogers.com or for those struggling to keep up, Men Who Look Like Kenny Rogers dot com.

Anyone else here look like someone famous? Post up comparison shots, I say.

lol!!!

Reminds me of a Rodney Rude album where he heckles a few audience members about their resemblence to Kenny Rogers (or Kenny G, can't remember which)

"Kenny must've done some r**ting around when he was last here! <insert Rodney Rude laughter here>"

Hmmm, I started a job and was flown to Sydney for a week to get the corporate culture thing. Met my new boss and she nearly fell over backwards. Apparently I'm the spitting image of her ex. Very awkward moment...

Yeah, she came straight out and said it. Didn't know what to say. Nah she didn't hit me up for one. But she was hanging around my desk a lot that week.

The BDM at that company also told me I'm the spitting image of his best mate. His best mate was the son of some famous cricketer. Somebody Marsh. I don't follow cricket...

What have you missed? Probably, the fact that the picture shown was actually Brad Pitt.

How much have you humiliated yourself? Ummm... See above, do the math...
