Interesting Finds: Celebrity Doppelgangers

If you are a fan of The Vampire Diaries, you surely know what the word 'doppelganger' means. In the show, that's just a covert way of ensuring Elena is relevant as more than just the teenage love interest of two hot vampire brothers.

Doppelganger (Urban Dictionary): Derived from German 'Doppelgänger', literally means "Ghostly Double". One who nearly or completely resembles another- but with no biological relation; Someone that looks exactly like another person yet not a twin.

SNL certainly made a huge enough fuss about the Tina Fey/ Sarah Palin connection to get us all twitchy (and interested).

And since we started this extremely lengthy and slightly confusing post with Nina Dobrev's Doppelganger role as Elena in the hit tv series, "Vampire Diaries", we'll finish it with Nina's real life doppelganger... uncanny resemblance, huh?

We also think Jennifer Lopez and Kate Hudson, Christina Milian and Melody Thornton (PCD) are celebrity doppelgangers. We just can't prove it. It would be great to know if these celebrity doppelgangers ever meet and whisper to their friends (more like, 'entourage'): "No, I DEFINITELY don't look like him/her. I am way prettier/hotter!" What other celebrity doppelgangers have you noticed? We would be glad to discover some more amazing look-alikes!
