CELEBRITY Doppelgängers

There are some celebrities that are often confused for others. Whether it's because they look so much alike or they share the same first name, these stars constantly suffer from mistaken identity.

Margot Robbie spoke to Buzzfeed about starring in 'Barbie' alongside her well-known doppelganger Emma Mackey, of 'Sex Education' fame, and revealed that she and Greta Gerwig were actually planning a whole bit for the lookalike stars in the film. The only problem was that once the actors were in full hair and makeup, they found they didn’t actually look very alike. “We were gonna do this whole joke about us looking similar,” Robbie said. “Once we got all dressed up as our Barbies, we were kind of like… we don’t look that similar. When she’s got her brown hair and I’ve got my blonde hair. So we didn’t put that joke in the movie."

Fans may still beg to differ, however, and Robbie has been mistaken on the street for Mackey several times. She doesn't mind though, as she told Buzzfeed: “When people come up and say, ‘I loved you in Sex Education,’ I just say, ‘Thank you. Thank you so much.'"
