John Travolta is Tyra Banks’ Weak Twin

Monday, June 2nd, 2008

I hate Tyra Banks, but even I have to admit that she’s not the weak twin in this scenario. This was originally posted on PerezHilton, but I think it’s certainly fitting on WeakTwin.com.

Monday, June 2nd, 2008

The CityRag blog has had a couple posts about celebrity look-alikes, or Weak Twins as we call them here. Here are a few.

Here’s Nicolas Cage looking an awful lot like Gene Simmons:

And how about this one of Benicio Del Toro looking like a homeless version of Brat Pitt, but still totally sexy:

Chris “Leave Britney Alone!” Crocker and his friend, porn star Cameron Michaels, hit Robertson Blvd. looking a lot like another pop culture couple we know. I always thought Chris Crocker looked a bit like Heidi Montag, but this only confirms it. Now if only his boy toy would grow a creepy flesh-colored beard.

Whitney from America’s Next Top ModelAnna Nicole Smith

Anyone who watched this season of America’s Next Top Model couldnt help but notice the similarities between winner Whitney Thompson and the late Anna Nicole Smith. Aside from being full figured blondes, both have similar bone structure and eye shape. Whitney is the weak twin in this case because, say what you will about Anna Nicole, but she was considered one of the most beautiful women in the world at one time.

Tila Tequila is LaToya Jackson’s weak twin

I know a lot of you might say, “Tila is the weak twin?!” but LaToya was a media whore long before Tila was even born, so that makes her the strong twin. Plus, she’s a Jackson, so that’s like +50 points right there. Anyway, Tila seems to be looking a little LaToya-esque these days.

Christina Aguilera was Dee Snider’s weak twin

Sure Christina Aguilera is beautiful now, but she’s had a few fashion snags in the past. Like during the “Lady Marmalade” period when she looked less like Marilyn Monroe and more like Twisted Sister frontman Dee Snider.

Evan Rachel Wood is becoming Dita Von Teese’s weak twin

Evan Rachel Wood is Dita Von Teese’s weak twin

Clearly Marilyn Manson is not over Dita Von Teese because he’s slowly turning his current girlfriend, actress Evan Rachel Wood, into a clone of Von Teese.

Check out what DListed had to say about it here.

This one’s almost too easy

Tiffany Pollard AKA New York

New York and Janice the Muppet

Tiffany Pollard AKA New York from VH1’s I Love New York looks so much like Janice the Muppet that it’s easy to confuse the two. A simple Google Images search for “janice muppet” yields so many New York/Muppet side-by-side pics that it’s almost unreal. Since the Muppets are classic and Janice is actually far more beautiful than horrible New York, I proclaim New York to be the weak twin of a fictional character made out of felt.

Leonardo DiCaprio has TWO weak twins

Leonardo DiCaprio is the strongest twin

This is going to be a rather long post on the subject of weak twins because it concerns Leo DiCaprio, who happens to have more than one weak twin. In fact, Leo is like the gateway to a 6-degrees-of-weak-twin universe where every male star looks like a version of every other male star.

We’ll start in the present and work backwards. If you look at handsome male stars today, you might come across pics of Grey’s Anatomy star and Rebecca Gayheart spouse Eric Dane sporting a little facial hair and rocking a modern day DiCaprio look. While Dane is older and thus was first, he is still the weak twin because… well, I mean, it’s freakin Leonardo DiCaprio.

If we look back to Leo’s younger days, we might be reminded of indie actor Michael Pitt, star of The Dreamers and Headwig and the Angry Inch.

What’s so weird here is that Michael Pitt looks like a ton of different famous people. In fact a few years ago he played a Kurt Cobain type character in the Gus Van Sant film Last Days.

And on a related tangent… there have been reports that Mr. High School Musical, Zac Efron, will play Cobain in an upcoming film.
