Facebook doppelgänger week

Hot on the heels of Wayback Week and the bra color fad, there’s a new craze in Facebook land called Doppelgänger week. Here’s the announcement doing rounds in dozens of status updates per minute:
It’s Doppelgänger week on Facebook. Change your profile picture to someone famous (actor, musician, athlete, etc.) you have been told you look like. After you update your profile with your evil twin or switched at birth photo then cut/paste this to your status.
If you’ve never been mistaken for or compared to a celebrity, there are some tools that can help. We tried the “Facedouble Me” feature of Facedouble’s celebrity look-alike application for Facebook, but continously encountered the “input file (…) does not exist” error. Maybe you have better luck? Another service that helps discover your celebrity twin is MyHeritage.com’s “Celebrity look-alike collage“. The huge downside is that it requires you to download and install a toolbar which ─even if you uncheck these options─ messes with your default browser settings and who knows what else, so use at your own risk!
So tell us, what celeb do you look like?
