Have you ever met anyone that looked like a famous person?
I went out with a group of people from my evening one night and there was a lady in the bar that looked just like Granny from the Beverly Hillbillies and we couldn't take our eyes off of her.

No, but apparently this JoJo is a singer, a la Avril, Jessica, Kelly Clarkson, you get the drift.

6. I used to know a truck driver who looked like Barry Bonds
I never told that I thought he looked like Bonds because I didn't get to know him that well and I didn't want to make him uncomfortable. But he looks like he could be Bonds's brother.

I'm occasionally told that I look like Denzel Washington, but I think it's only a vague resemblance.

14. lots of people
Everyone looks like everyone else, to my eye, to a certain extent. But I had an acquaintance who became a friend who looked just like James Spader and I used to call him James Spader for probably two years before I got to know him better and learned his real name.
