Which celebrities do you most resemble?

October 17th, 2006 · No Comments

This is pretty cool if you ask me!

Upload a photo and MyHeritage.com will scan it using facial-recognition software to match you against their database of celebrities; 4,016 celebrities to be exact! Pretty good matching, too, from what I’ve seen for myself and of several family and friends.

Here’s my look-alike list for a single picture, which appears in the graphic, below:

  1. George Clooney
  2. Pierce Brosnan
  3. Howie Dorough
  4. Willie Nelson
  5. Peter Gallagher
  6. Bruce Willis
  7. Sean Hayes
  8. Sean Bean

Try it… you’ll LIKE it!

Oh, but that’s not the best part! You see, I’m not a one-photo, one-trial kind of guy so I actually submitted 5 different photos, one of them twice after tweaking it a bit for gamma correction (that’s the photo of me that you see in the graphic, above).

After all five photos had been matched individually, I manually compiled a list of my top matches and averaged out the match percentage by adding them up and dividing by the number of matches. That list, which seems more visually accurate to me, looks like this:

  1. George Clooney: 63%
  2. Sean Hayes: 62.5%
  3. Sean Bean: 60%
  4. Bruce Willis: 57%
  5. Rutger Hauer: 57%
  6. Edward Norton

Depending on the photo used, my highest single percentage match to a person was 70% and applied to the following people:

  • Carlos Menem
  • Eric Bana
  • Ian Mckellen
  • Brad Delson
  • Dermot Mulroney

But enough about me and my matches already; go to MyHeritage.com now and see which celebrities you resemble most!
