Ville Valo opens up a virtual treasure chest of Weak Twins

Wednesday, March 4th, 2009

I recently got an email from of our readers, named Alice, who said “Hey! I think you should feature Ville Valo frontman of HIM and Jack White from White Stripes. They look the same!” She was extra helpful because she also sent along a picture of Valo looking like White.

While I personally don’t think he looks all that much like Jack White, what I did discover is that Ville Valo can look like just about anyone.

When he’s rocking some eyeliner, he looks more than a little bit like Jordan Catalano himself, Jared Leto. Determining who is the Weak Twin is a bit difficult in this scenario, so I’ll leave it up to you.

When he’s going for a slightly less emo look, he looks like universal Weak Twin Michael Pitt (who also looks like Leonardo DiCaprio and Kurt Cobain.) I think Michael Pitt’s a great actor, but because he’s already a weak twin for TWO other people, I have no choice but to label him the weak twin here as well.

But that’s not all! Ville Valo also looks like Jackass star Bam Margera, as illustrated in these photos of the two of them together. Clearly Margera is the Weak Twin in this case in that he looks like Valo’s douchier, dough boy brother.

If that wasn’t enough, Ville Valo also looks like Metallica’s Lars Ulrich in some pictures.

See, I told you this guy can look like almost anyone!

If I could tell these two apart, I could tell you which is the weak twin

Even as I write this, I can’t remember which picture is Katy Perry and which is Zooey Deschanel, thus making it impossible to determine the weak twin. I feel like it’s a CG effect or something.These two look so similar they could start playing pranks on the town in some sort of hilarious family comedy.

It isn’t exactly breaking news, and I believe both women have even addressed the kooky similarity, but it’s probably the best example of female celebrity weak twins.

Kat Von D or Amy Winehouse?

Wednesday, December 10th, 2008

Since Winehouse can spin off many weak twins, here’s another one I’ve noticed while glancing at some non-crackhead photos of her. In a certain light–and by that I mean with ample amounts of retouching–she bears a slight resemblance to tattoo artist extraordinaire (and reality star) Kat Von D.

Winehouse may be a total mess, but she has real talent and she kicked Grammy ass with her album. Von D is a talented tattoo artist, but her fame through banging Nikki Sixx and her reality show take her down a few pegs. I’ll leave it to you to determine who is the weak twin in this scenario.

UPDATE: Amy Winehouse is also Lily Tomlin’s weak twin. (Thanks to Keith for pointing this out)

Sarah Palin is Tina Fey’s weak twin

Tina Fey as Sarah Palin

People have been saying this since relative unknown Sarah Palin was inexplicably named John McCain’s running mate, but this weekend SNL only confirmed things when Tina Fey herself played Palin in the opening sketch. Tina Fey is one of my heroes and she is one of the funniest people in the world, so I think the weaker twin is obvious.
