Roy Focker Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 www.myheritage.com Try it. Up load a picture of you and see what celebrity you look like. For best results try a couple of pictures of yourself. Results may change from picture to picture. I also had a few pictures of Agent One. No Arnold didn't come up but according to the results and percentages of some of his closest matches. 60% Kurt Cobain (A1 a dirty druggy musician like Basara?) 58% Hugh Grant (A1 a British fop that stars in sissy romatic comedies?) 57% Kevin Costner (A1 as the boring American guy who takes the roles Hugh Grant doesn't want?) As for some of my matches... 65% Alec Baldwin (Just what the world needs another Baldwin brother) 61% Oliver Kahn (Some sorta German Soccer Goalee) 57% Dudi Balsar (Some sorta Iraeli male model) 54% Bruce Willis (Only 54% but he showed up on a few pictures I used). What really odd one was this... 41% Christina Ricci Hmm A1 can be the next Hugh Grant and Kevin Costner. I can be the next Alec Baldwin or Bruce Willis. Don't know about you but I would rather see my movies. If this site proves anything its that I'm one handsome action hero male model type and Agent One is the perfect wuss for a girl flick. Quote
Knight26 Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 I played with that once, I came out looking like Rock Hudson, pre gay. Quote
Graham Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 Haven't tried that, but I've had so many people come up to me and tell me that I resemble Nick Cage that I've lost count. It's gotten to the stage that I find it intensly annoying. Personally, I think I look nothing like him. Graham Quote
mikeszekely Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 (edited) Egads, Orlando Bloom, 63%! I don't know if I should be happy or not about that one... Leo DiCaprio... 56%. This just keeps getting worse. Michael Moore, 50%. From sexy to slob. Eddie Murphy, 46% I think it's gotta be my goatee. I'm gonna try a different photo. EDIT: I tried with one of my wife's... 50% Lucy Liu, 40% Natalie Portman, and 38% Shigeru Miyamoto. Wrap your brains around that one! Edited February 10, 2006 by mikeszekely Quote
myk Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 Lol...How do you go from Leo 'Caprio to Eddie Murphy?! Quote
mikeszekely Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 Lol...How do you go from Leo 'Caprio to Eddie Murphy?! Like I said, I think it just kinda honed in on my goatee. The Leo pic and the Orlando pic were both from their goateed days... and can you remember Eddie Murphy NOT having a goatee? A better question is how you go from Natalie Portman to Miyamoto. Quote
Sundown Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 (edited) O_o I'm Keira Knightly (54%). Does she know this? "Hey Keira, baby, we have so much in common. We both don't look like you." I'm also Lucille Ball (53%) and Aung San Suu Kyi (50%). My first male match is Placido Domingo at (49%). This thing doesn't work at all, when in reality, I look a lot more like an asian Bencio Del Toro than anything. I've also been accused of looking like Keanu Reeves and the Jap/Chinese singer Takashi, but those people are largely insane. Hah, I'm also Juan Carlos Ferrero (which I can sorta see), and Robert De Niro. Awesome. And Sam Raimi at (37%) for the geek in me. Edited February 10, 2006 by Sundown Quote
mikeszekely Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 Okay, I've tried several pictures of my wife (apparently she poses for the pictures, and I just take them, because I couldn't find more then three of me). Every time, Lucy Liu. Me, I couldn't get the celebrity twice, but some other intersting people I kinda look like include Ella Fitzgerald, Emma Watson, and Rudolph Guiliani. Quote
Roy Focker Posted February 10, 2006 Author Posted February 10, 2006 Yeah make sure you try a couple of pictures. Avoid pics If you have things block your face like glasses, facial hair or hair over your eyes or forehead. Quote
Sundown Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 Hilarious. I tried another photo, a shot of 3 of us with Chris Tomlin, who is a celebrity of sorts. He's pretty well known in the Christian music community... My friends get matched with dudes. I get Hillary Duff. Along with a bunch of other semi-hot chicks. What the?! I do not look like a chick. At least I also got Eric Bana, and Benecio Del Toro (41%) actually did show up in the list. Well, they got something right. Chris Tomlin didn't even get recognized as having a face. The one actual celebrity in our picture didn't even register as human. =P Bastage, my friend got also got Benecio Del Toro, at 59%, when he looks nothing like him. Except it's a different picture. Apparently, I look like the more tired, fatigued, and uglier version of Del Toro. Hate. Quote
JB0 Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 Yeah make sure you try a couple of pictures.  Avoid pics If you have things block your face like glasses, facial hair or hair over your eyes or forehead. 368856[/snapback] You're joking, right? I wear my glasses every waking minute. And facial hair DEFINES me. Meh, I don't have any pictures of me on my comp anyways. I'm the photographer, not the photographee. Quote
Zentrandude Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 (edited) LOL 45% Doris Day. Not even the same race. I am impressed that the face recog software managed to locate my face instead of the dead buck's head and antlers in my hand. edit: complete info 45% Doris day 45% Micheal Richards 45% Umberto Nobile 45% Sophia loren 45% Zhou Enlai 43% kate Winslet.... wtf?..... 42% Gerard Depardieu 38% Rani Mukherjee 38% John Maynard Keynes 38% Sean Penn Edited February 10, 2006 by Zentrandude Quote
JB0 Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 This is interesting... been feeding it random pics. My avatar apparently looks like Ayumi Hamasaki(67%). Runners-up include Jennifer Anniston(61), Salvador Dali(61), and Aretha Franklin(60). R E S P E C T! CHECK OUT MY MELTING CLOCKS, WHOOPIE! Quote
Zentrandude Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 (edited) You guys tried your families pic yet? Somehow my dad got kim jong ii 53% and boris karloff 51% I was about to think they would show satans face next. Edited February 10, 2006 by Zentrandude Quote
Wes Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 OK, I'm also going to call BS on this one as well: 70% John Travolta - 67-66% some people nobody's heard of 65% Keanu Reeves - ok now I'm kicking there arses 61% Bruce Willis - now you're doing better 61% Kevin Bacon - then you fail'd it Quote
Roy Focker Posted February 10, 2006 Author Posted February 10, 2006 Another tip try to have use a straight face pic. If you one at an angle then the results will show people with there faces in the same direction. Which why it pays to use multiple pics of yourself. Quote
JB0 Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 (edited) Yah. It matches to specific pictures, not people in general. Which is why a picture of Al Gore with a humorous chunk of subtitle text can bear a strong similarity to Leonardo DiCaprio, but only a passing one to Al Gore. Grabbed a digicam and shot a few of me. Eddie Murphy and Brad Pitt come up as close. Pretty sure it's due to me wearing glasses and them wearing shades in the match pics. Murphy also wins facial hair points. Landed Snoop Dogg on facial hair too. And Robert DeNiro on.... I have NO idea. Edited February 10, 2006 by JB0 Quote

Sundown Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 This is interesting... been feeding it random pics. My avatar apparently looks like Ayumi Hamasaki(67%) I tried it with some artwork of mine. She came up as a close match with Sophie Loren. The old version. Not real flattering, but I can see why it thought so. The character also has prominent cheekbones and a pouty kisser, but she ain't 90 years old! Quote
Sumdumgai Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 (edited) ARGH!

WTF! I've been mistaken for a girl when I was two days without shaving, in freaking swiming trunks (no shirt) on the beach, and talking to someone. I need to kill someone now, excuse me. edit: My wife looks: 68% Lee Harvey Oswald 67% Demi Moore 67% Andie Macdowel 65% Clark Gable 64% Brad Pitt wtf Edited February 10, 2006 by Sumdumgai Quote

Quote
Roy Focker Posted February 10, 2006 Author Posted February 10, 2006 Yeah it doesn't count color that much. I used the same pic in color and black & white and got the same results. The higher the score the better chances. Quote
Sundown Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 Who's Anouk Aimee? Apparently she's some hot, now old chick from the 70's that keeps popping up for me. I guess I can see the resemblance. We should get together and have kids. There would be minimum risk of our offspring coming out badly, and it's pretty predictable what we'll end up getting. By 'we' I mean me, and the hot version of her from the 70's. Not the old version of her today. Quote
JB0 Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 I'm a guy damnit, and even this stupid program thinks I'm a woman! WTF! I've been mistaken for a girl when I was two days without shaving, in freaking swiming trunks (no shirt) on the beach, and talking to someone. I need to kill someone now, excuse me. Haw. A day after shaving, I've got enough hair that it'd be impossible to mistake me for a woman. My facial hair has always been very fast-growing. And if you look at my arms, you'd be justified in mistaking me for a balding monkey, but definitely not a woman. Quote
