Have you ever seen these two in
the same room? Well, no, and there's a reason for that. Because Bruno Mars has
never publicly admitted to wanting to serenade Chicharito, aka Javier
"Chicharito" Hernandez.
Also,
though, they do look quite alike. Perhaps if Bruno Mars trimmed his hair ever so
slightly, grew a bit taller and threw on a Manchester United or Mexico shirt
then it could be even more evident.
This
is one of the most common lookalikes in the Premier League, with someone
pointing it out at least every day. Still, I'm sure they can be forgiven. The
resemblance is uncanny.
Perhaps a slightly less popular
one to notice, but still equally true.
Georgios
Samaras, the Greek striker for Celtic, looks exactly like Freddie Mercury, the
somehow remotely English singer from Queen.
Although
they'll only look like each other for as long as Samaras keeps his hair
long.
To be honest though, as long as
we don't ever see Samaras dressed up in drag, dancing during his housework, the
world will just be a better place.
The pair of them look completely
crazy. Enough said, really.
Fabio
Capello was crazy enough to take on the job that has completely destroyed
countless managers' careers, and Heston Blumenthal is simply crazy, with half
the things he cooks.
Obviously
you'd need to make sure Capello shaved his head first to see if the comparison
would truly work, but there is a striking resemblance.
For those of you who don't know,
Josh Radnor acts the title character in the popular TV sitcom, How I Met Your
Mother. Actually, I should rephrase that or it sounds like he acts the
mother—he actually acts the main character in the show.
Xavier
Hernandez acts as the "behind the scenes" saviour for Barcelona and Spain. Well,
that was until he was finally noticed for his efforts on a global scale during
Euro 2008 when he was named player of the tournament.
I
think the only thing that would stop people from noticing the two had switched
would be Barcelona's drop in performance—and How I Met Your Mother would
need to be subtitled.
Perhaps a little bit of a
stretch depending on which pictures and which era you choose. But more recently
Diego Forlan looks very similar to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory's
Gene Wilder.
I'm
sure Forlan won't mind being compared to a comedy icon, even if it is just for
looks, and I think Wilder would probably be even happier about being compared to
an athlete.
Still,
the two bear a striking resemblance from the right era, so perhaps if there's
ever a Uruguayan spin on theCharlie and the Chocolate Factory story, then
perhaps Forlan has his post-football career sorted?
Perhaps it's the picture,
perhaps it's just actually true. Dimitar Berbatov could well have been Andy
Garcia's conjoined twin at birth who was later removed. A quick change of name
so he didn't ride his brother's coat tails to success, and
voilà .
For
those who haven't quite gotten the layout of this slideshow yet, I'd like to add
here they are not actually twins. You should not go writing that down at any pub
quizzes.
If
they did have to be twins though, or brothers at least, they could probably pull
it off, despite their different accents.
