2 – Travis Scott and ASAP Rocky
You’ll notice some striking similarities if you’ve ever compared Travis Scott and ASAP Rocky. It’s almost like Travis took his persona straight from ASAP’s stylebook.

3 – Anna Nicole Smith and Marilyn Monroe
Many other celebrities have done a few Marilyn Monroe-inspired photoshoots or red-carpet looks. But in every aspect, Anna Nicole Smith had a deep and consistent association with Marilyn. From her career choices to her manner of speaking, Anna Nicole embodied Marilyn’s comedic bimbo persona.
4 – Caitlyn Jenner and Cindy Crawford
Now, we all know Cindy Crawford is a legendary supermodel. But at the December 2018 British Fashion Awards, multiple people mistook Caitlyn Jenner for Cindy Crawford. That’s right, Caitlyn had done such a remarkable job of emulating Cindy’s looks that it reached a point of confusion.
5 – Harry Styles and David Bowie
Harry Styles‘ unique sense of style has drawn comparisons to the legendary David Bowie. Some fans even claim that Harry ripped off Bowie’s style for his persona. One commenter opines, “Harry’s whole created persona is him ripping off David Bowie.” Another adds, “In the shallowest possible way, yeah. I’m not even mad at it; at least it’s a bit different from what most of his peers are doing.”
6 – Ariana Grande and Mariah Carey
Ariana Grande faced heavy marketing as the “new Mariah” during the early stages of her career. However, this strategy and comparison received mixed reactions and huge criticism. Let’s not forget that Ariana’s impressive vocal range and ability to whistle parallels Mariah’s talent.

Leonardo DiCaprio has openly admired Jack Nicholson, citing him as his idol. These two actors share similarities in their acting styles and the level of stardom they have achieved.

LeAnn Rimes’ attempts to emulate Brandi Glanville have become quite intense. Dedicated followers of the story can attest. The situation has become so intriguing that one person mentions going down a rabbit hole while exploring the details.
13 – Adam Devine and Jack Black
Adam Devine’s resemblance to Jack Black is quite uncanny, yet many people may have never made the connection. It’s easy to see why. Their similar comedic styles and energy would make for a hilarious on-screen duo. One fan shares our thoughts: “I’m legit wondering why they haven’t been cast as dad and son.”
14 – Machine Gun Kelly and Eminem
Machine Gun Kelly’s attempt to challenge Eminem and copy his style caused quite a stir. The rivalry between the two rappers — with MGK thinking he could outdo Eminem — became a hot topic of discussion. Ultimately, it didn’t end well for Kelly, as Eminem’s stature and loyal fanbase proved too formidable to overcome.
15 – The Weeknd and Michael Jackson
The Weeknd’s rise to superstardom has led some fans of Michael Jackson to notice similarities between the two artists. While The Weeknd has undeniably carved out his unique style and sound, we can see the influence of the King of Pop in his performances and music.

18 – Kim Kardashian and Cher
We know Kim could never fully be Cher. But that hasn’t stopped her from channeling her inner Cher whenever she feels like it. It’s no secret that Kim looks up to the Grammy-winning singer as her style and beauty icon. She’s never shied away from expressing her love for Cher.
19 – Bob Odenkirk and Kevin Costner
Bob Odenkirk and Kevin Costner already share a resemblance, so it’s not surprising that Odenkirk has chosen a similar acting style and flair. They even have similar personalities in many of their movies. They’re like long-lost acting twins.
20 – Bella Hadid and Carla Bruni
Hadid and Bruni are undeniably stunning, but it’s hard not to notice that Bella has gone to great lengths to resemble Bruni. A commenter also says, “Bella has an uncanny valley look; you can just tell her face is not real.” And they’re not alone in their observation.
21 – Rita Ora and Rihanna
Rihanna has always been a unique force in the industry. And she has also served as an inspiration for Rita Ora. Rita has borrowed some dressing and stylistic ideas from the “Umbrella” star. There were rumors of a feud between the two until Rita Ora cleared the air.
22 – Kylie Jenner and Kim Kardashian
It’s no secret that Kylie Jenner followed in her sister Kim’s footsteps of cosmetic enhancements. Yet, somehow, she didn’t quite nail it like Kim did. It’s fascinating how two sisters can embark on the same path yet get different outcomes.
23 – Lady Gaga and Madonna
As they say, Madonna walked so Gaga could run. Madonna undoubtedly revolutionized the music industry with bold displays, and Lady Gaga followed a similar path. These stars changed the game, but Madonna did it first, blazing the trail for Gaga and others.
24 – Ciara and Janet Jackson
If you dig into Ciara’s earlier years, you’ll notice that at some point, she became obsessed with Janet Jackson. Not only did she start styling, dancing, and looking more like her, but she even adopted some of Janet’s mannerisms and voice. Now, some fans find it quite bizarre. One boldly comments, “It’s really bizarre, and I think the only reason it hasn’t been called out more is her general lack of relevance.” That has to sting a little.
