My Look Alikes
Published October 24th, 2006 in , , .Well, because of one thing or another, it has been a couple of months since my last post. A lot has happened, and a lot still seems the same! Anyway, what better way to jump back into the fray with a celebrity look-alike contest! With a big Word Up to Donnie in the true spirit of CC, comes My Heritage. It’s being touted as some shit hot genealogy and family tree tool, and while it may be all that, it’s the face recognition software that has us intrigued. That said, we should be scared by this type of technology… but hey! It takes a photo of yours truly and matches it with celebrity look alikes. Like Donnie, I’m not sure if I’m convinced by the results. Check out the results for yourself:
Keef! Tim Henman! You are kidding me right? So I tried again…
David Seaman? Some ponce from a boy band? Ezra Pound?!? A lot of my friends say I’ll end up a crazy old man walking around talking to myself… is this what I’ll look like! Good God! Most intrigingly though, good ‘ol Chairman Mao. Now considering that dear old Donnie was also told he looked like the Chairman, I wondering how accurate this technology is. On the bright side, at least I don’t look like a chick. Sadly, the same can’t be said for Donnie or Jimmy James!
PLEASE!!!! Male or female, I’d rather look like Angelina Jolie than Ron Howard or Keith Richards.
The Mao comparison is puzzling. Maybe it can detect the pinko gene from a photo.
I’d be quite pleased with looking like Alan Rickman but I can’t help but wonder if you’ve warned Michael Owen that he’s going to start balding in a few years?
