My closest are Scarlett Johanssen (good) and Tara Reid (not so good), but can't figure out how to put up a pic...
How can a person look like Jennifer Connelly and Kirk Douglas?

Should I be offended? ;)

That wasn't the actual pic I got, but it was similar. It's pretty clever how it can find your face in a photo and find someone who looks similar to you. Technology, it baffles me.

as i said before - i am somewhere between lily piano and carmen elektra.  on days when it's humid - my hair is very curly and then, when it's hot it's straight. 

the only thing is that i have bangs, my eyes are slightly smaller, my hips are slightly bigger, my bust is slightly smaller, but generally we look a lot a like.  we both have longer hair.

this is probably more realistic.  we have the same eyes, face shape, eyebrows similar, jawline.  i have longer hair - and it is now blondish brunette hair (highlights). i think we even have the same nose.  yes.  this girl is my sister.

Used two photos, this is hilarious!

Guess what Yves Montand, James Doohan (Scotty from Star Trek, he's the only one I resemble), Monica Lewinsky (  ;D ::) :P :-[ :'( :-X ) Lev Yashin ( who's he?) and Woody Allen ( I hear that a lot but I don't think I look like him) have in common...

I'm not as weird looking as it sounds...  ::)

I tried a lot of pictures. The algorithm was able to recognize the correct gender. And this is actually very hard to do. We instantly see that a face is male or female but there really isn't much of a difference.

This program may work strange from time to time, in a best case scenario it actually works flawlessly. But often the posture, experssion and angle of the face on the picture seems to influence the results drastically.

Anyway, my first result was Ewan McGregor. I guess I can be very glad with this. My inability to enjoy movies as I imagine they should be enjoyed, especially those from hollywood, make it so that Ewan McGregor is one of my favorite actors, if I can still say this considering my earlier statement, because of my soft spot for Star Wars. The acting in the prequels were very poor but I could still stand Ewan.
I mean, my other selections would have been people like Brent Spinner, Patrick Stewart and maybe also Jet Li and Donnie Yen who do not resemble me at all.

So I couldn't imagine a better result than Ewan McGregor. I guess we share the same 'ugly' nose'. I mean, it is a lot better than those characterless-looking pretty boys.

oops.  i didn't actually take stevie's poll (was it there at the first?).  i just saw his question 'what celeb do you most look like?'  now i have to actually find a picture of myself (or get one) and try this site out.  thalbergmad may have spoken too soon.  the girl i picked was probably my ideal when i'm well rested.  today another 20 miles on the bike though shouldn't hurt.  the thing i'm really po'd about is that i was in shape until i broke my leg. 

i love u, thal.  you always make me feel good about myself.  and, zheer - i am most pleasant when i get my way.  (well, as my husband can attest - i can be pleasant and then on another day -quite witchy or *chy).  i'm trying to just be nice all the time - but it's really hard on the days that everything seems to go wrong.  for instance - by the end of the day yesterday i was glad mad tv came on.  they were spinning 'wheel of misfortune.'  everyone was clapping for the person who gets the worst misfortune.  usually it's me dealing with a crisis of some sort and then needing mental surgery to stop this brain hemmoraging of thoughts.  'what an idiot what an idiot - oh, yeah...i might be the idiot.'

Piano Street Magazine:
Women and the Chopin Competition: Breaking Barriers in Classical Music

The piano, a sleek monument of polished wood and ivory keys, holds a curious, often paradoxical, position in music history, especially for women. While offering a crucial outlet for female expression in societies where opportunities were often limited, it also became a stage for complex gender dynamics, sometimes subtle, sometimes stark. From drawing-room whispers in the 19th century to the thunderous applause of today’s concert halls, the story of women and the piano is a narrative woven with threads of remarkable progress and stubbornly persistent challenges.
