Looking through some old Jinx magazines I saw a picture on the cover of issue 60 (Sept 1939) of Kent Arthur. He looks a dead ringer for actor Leonardo DeCaprio!
I remember in an early Harris book his referring to the fact Mike Skinner at the time would have won a James Coburn look alike contest. Anyone else got any magician/actor look alikes? Paul. |

Now that you mention it, I can see the resemblance Peter. You'll have to stop wearing her clothes.

Well, it's pretty commonly said that Guy Hollingworth looks like Hugh Grant.
Believe it or not, I'm often told that I look like Tom Hanks—I just don't see it at all. I'm quite a bit younger for one thing, and obviously better looking. Once, at a magic convention, a number of youngsters (mid to late teens) came up and asked me for my autograph. I was quite flattered and a bit mystified (this was before I was a writer on Visions, so I was surprised they'd heard of me). As I signed their convention schedules, one of them said, "We really appreciate this, Mr. Regal!" They were VERY disappointed. I still laugh about that. David and I had (at the time) very similar hair styles, but I'm a good 6-8 inches taller than him, several years younger, about 50 pounds heavier, and again, SIGNIFICANTLY better looking!

While Guy Hollingworth does bear a passing resemblance to Hugh Grant, I think that their major similarity is that old-fashioned English shy charm that they both seem to have.

Many folks have said that I resemble either Pierce Brosnan or Burt Reynolds, depending on my mood and the day of the week.

Mike Close looks very much like Bruce Forsyth on the cover of Magic magazine. At least three of my friends who saw the cover said, "I didn't know Brucie did magic!"

I don't know the name of the actor, but he was in the film starring Matthew Broderick and Marlon Brando ("New in the mafia" or similar title), and he plays the godfather's nephew... that guy looks exactly like Darwin Ortiz (and I wouldn't be surprised if you tell me it actually is him).
Also, I know there is some guy at this board that looks like Michael J Fox, at least on his avatar/icon. Also, Eugene Burger looks like Santa Claus! |

People make fun of my avatar saying I look like a magical Terminator... That just makes me feel like hurting someone! Just kidding. Would I do that?

Matias...that film is called "The Freshman." I finally just saw it the other day. It was actually pretty good.
Now back to the topic of discussion... P.

You are talking about "Angelmerlin" from Spain! He does look like Michael J Fox! I always thought Courtney Cox and Demi Moore looked like sisters. And the best look a like: George Washington and Barbara Bush— am I a freak or do they look alike? Sorry, you wanted magicians didn't you!

When I haven't shaven for a few days (*cough*avatar*cough*), I get a lot of Blaine comparisons!
Yes, Brian, you definitely look like you're on some Terminator styles, haha. Take care, Bobby.

Bascomb,
Has anyone ever told you that you look just like Emilio Estevez? Priest, Ever get any requests to sing "1999"? You do look a little like Prince. Weird how a lot of our members here resemble celebrities. No offence to anyone, hopefully. It's just something that needs to be pointed out, especially on a topic like this. |

re:
So anyone out there reading this, do you agree? :lol: One has to stretch the imagination a bit, but there IS a SLIGHT resemblance. When I started the post I was talking about dead ringers. Maybe you could be a body double? Paul. |

Sorry, Paul, I didn't remember the "dead ringer" part. But did anyone ever tell you look like the late great Jim Varney?
Ya know what I mean, Vern? |

Brian, nobody asks me to sing "1999" but people are always mistakenly calling me "Prince" instead of "Priest."
