Happy National Look Alike Day, SEO Industry
It’s true. Today, April 20, is National Look Alike Day here in the U.S. What better way to celebrate than with a collection of Celebrity SEO/SEM Look Alikes? (That’s right — no better way.)
The idea for this post actually dates back to December, 2006, when I first met Rob Kerry (aka evil green monkey) at the SES Chicago show and immediately thought, Wow! He looks exactly like the guy who sings in The Fray.
Even though this is NOT a contest, I’m declaring Rob the default winner of the SEO Celebrity Look Alike award. See for yourself:
But Rob’s not alone. No, as you’ll see below, there’s a long list of Honorable Mention celebrity look alikes in the SEO/SEM industry. Enjoy!
The End! Happy National Look Alike Day to all!
Credits: Some of the SEO photos used above are mine, but others came from various Flickr photostreams and I (stupidly) failed to keep track of my sources. I’m confident that I’ve borrowed photos from Lee Odden and Li Evans. If you see a photo you took above, use the Contact Me page to tell me about it and I’ll credit you with a link here.
Credit also goes to the amazing Face Recognition software available at MyHeritage.com, one of the coolest web tools ever.
as long as i can have the antonio banderas look-a-like for a husband… i won’t kill you 😉
at least, it didn’t compare me to D.B.!!
I’ve never heard of The Fray, so not sure if it’s a good thing or a bad thing 😐
Man – Frankie Muniz –
This game sucks:)
I’ve heard Ron Reagan Jr. a few times in the past, and more recently Seth Myers, but this is the first time I’ve been Malcolm Malicoat.
Li – who’s the D.B. you’re referring to?
Rob – The Fray are a pretty good lite-rock band from Denver. There are worse comparisons.
Todd – dude, I had so much trouble finding one for you. I must’ve tried 4-5 different photos! Ron Reagan Jr. makes sense, that would be better than Frankie…. sorry! 🙂
Li is referring to Drew Barrymore.
As for Justin Sanger, when I saw him on stage I immediately thought Hugh Laurie, or Christopher Lloyd from his Reverend Jim days on Taxi 😉
If I was Todd, I would totally kill you.
Though I might kill you anyway. Someone found this at work and emailed it to the entire office. Thanks a lot, Matt! 🙂
Sweet! So there are others at BC, Inc., who stop by? Coolio…..
BTW, for any readers who don’t understand the “kill” references in some comments, I sent out an email to the look-alikes above with this link, saying:
“As I see it, you have two choices: kill me or link to me. I’m hoping for the latter.”
So far, so good. Whew!
I think you just made Chris Boggs’ weekend! All partisanship aside… now there’s a handsome man. hehe
Haha, good stuff Matt. I’ve definitely never been told I look like Clooney.
Great post, there are some funny ones in there.
