Twins Confusion

Gratuitous Chick Pics

I have spoken before about how I get celebrities confused with other celebrities when reading about them.  Here’s a recent example, that being between Emma Watson and Keira Knightley:

 

I know, they don’t look anything like each other when seen side by side.  But when I read about one, I’m thinking “petite Brit brunette with no boobs”, and I think you’ll acknowledge my confusion when those criteria are applied.

So now I have to apply a discrete mental tag to each one, such as “skinny Brit brunette with no boobs in Harry Potter” and “skinny Brit brunette with no boobs in that pirate movie with Johnny Depp”.

 

 

Of course, my life would doubtless be simplified if I just ignored reading about them altogether, but that would probably require that I quit reading my guilty pleasure, the Daily Mail.  And I don’t really want to do that, because the very definition of “guilty pleasure” is something that one gets pleasure from even though one shouldn’t.

What’s even worse is that I don’t find either of the above that attractive because “whiny voice / skinny / no boobs” (all of which they both have in common) is generally speaking a total turn-off for me.

What a mess…

  1. Never heard of either one and never watched either movie. Guess I’m out of the loop.

  2. I do the same thing with Lisa Kudrow from Friends fame and Gwyneth Paltrow from escaped from the asylum fame

    1. Completely understandable, although I don’t have the same problem. (Mostly because I think Lisa is totally hot and Gwyneth is horribly foul.)

  3. Kiera Knightly’s doppelgänger is actually Natalie Portman. She’s no one’s idea of “busty”, but her boobage is less unimpressive than Kiera’s.

    Side note: Ms. Portman had a major role in the “Star Wars” prequels, and Ms. Knightly was her double as part of the plot. (Such as it was.) One of their mothers (Mrs. Knightly, IIRC) visited the set when they were made up as each other and quite literally couldn’t tell them apart.

  4. Apropos of nothing. I thought Emma Watson was adorable in the 1st Harry Potter flick (only one I watched). I find her super cute as an adult…..that is until she opens her mouth, ugh.
