Who Do I Look Like?

so i peeked in at this site called my heritage which has a demo for face recognition. you can upload a picture and it will tell you what celebrities you most resemble... or i suppose have some similar features of. hey! this is better than a meme isn't it? so i gave it a whirl.

not only does it tell you who and show you the picture of them, but it provides a percentage of the feature match.

  • john lennon 54%
    heh, i don't see the resemblence, but it could have matched much worse.
  • julie christie 49%
    wtf? i've been told i write like a girl, now look like one. geez! must be the longer hair. at least she isn't ugly, though i have no idea who she is... must google that sometime.
  • johnny depp 47%
    now your talkin'... too bad i don't really look like him.
  • david beckham 45%
    damn, this thing is really trying to stroke my ego isn't it?
  • hugh grant 43%
    i'm not sure if i should be insulted by this one or not. women seem to find him attractive, so i probably shouldn't complain. is today opposite day or something?
  • ralph nader 40%
    i guess the hairline kicked in for that one

give it a whirl, it was quite amusing. oh, and if there are multiple people in the picture, it does the recognition for both people; however, the more non-forward facing you are the less likely it is to see a face.
