A quick left-over from last week's Test The Nation gameshow and guaranteed victory (check out this great behind-the-scenes video overview).
While I lurked about the backstages of CBC, I noticed I was being attentively watched by this young guy and girl. Shyly, they approached and asked when I'd be joining them at their table.
"Why?" I said, puzzled.
"Uh, aren't you one of the celebrity lookalikes?" they responded."No, I'm one of the Bloggers..."
"Oh," said the sizzling Angelina Jolie twin. "I thought you were a Dustin Hoffman lookalike."
By the way, I get this ALL THE TIME. Happened at last week's Shop.org speech, right after the keynote. And last summer, at a Toronto Film fest party, I had the pleasure of actually meeting Dustin Hoffman, who was patient and kind enough to hear my story of constantly being mistaken for/compared to him. His response?
"Aw...you're way better looking. I think you look more like Pacino."
Either way, I'll take it. And for the record, the Jolie and "Young Elvis" lookalike with the Hoffman-manqué below.
