^^ Please don't let it get to you, Kestra. That applet is really not very accurate at all. I keep looking for a better one.

^ You know, I actually think TSQ is cuter than MdM.
And I don't think I look anything like any of those celebs that MyHeritage.com applet pulled up. Actually, the comment I get most often IRL is that I look like Lee Marvin...but I don't see that either!
I wouldn't put much stock in that site. I'm a man, and three of my top five "matches" were Jessica Alba, Jennifer Garner, and Paris Hilton...
It's not as though I submitted a photo in which I had particularly long hair or anything.
I tried a second photo that I took immediately after getting a haircut and it matched me with Ursula Andress, Jennifer Connelly and Katherine Heigl. Not a man in the bunch. (At least in the first one, Christopher Lee and Russell Crowe were in the list...)
^ I had to try several pictures too. When it did recognize my face more than half of my matches were women. (What I posted above was a composite of three different pictures/tries.)
And no matter how many times that stupid algorithm says it, I will never believe I look like Joan Crawford. I could never be that big of a bitch... but that stupid algorithm is.

Oh I know, I was just being mock-upset. I shouldn't expect there to be any Indian actresses in their archive, anyway. I have a hard time saying I look like any celebrity, anyway!
Humph! Their loss!

It matched me to Rani Mukhergee!

Okay that's just hilarious!
It matched me to Kirsten Dunst and Judi Dench. WTF???
Oh, what the hell. Just go ahead and cast Renee Zellweger as me. I'm sure she'll do a bang-up job!
I keep getting East Asian actresses. Guess it's the Native American half -- Pacific Northwest Indians often have somewhat East Asian features.
My matches seem to be based almost entirely on the shape of my eyeglass frames. I don't think that software is very thorough in its analysis! 
I would clearly be played by Edward Norton.
My highest match at MyHeritage.com was Alan Rickman. I also got Anton Chekhov and BB King.
Okay ran myself trough the myheritage thing. First pic it thought, amongst others, Dick Cheney No, I do not shoot my friends in the face and don't even visit them at the hospital.
This was the pic:
Next one was a bit better though, James Spader, Peter Sellers and Johnny Depp. Out of that batch I'd actually go with Spader. He could properly capture the attitude.
This was the pic for that:
Gotta ask though: how is it to have half the board swoon every time you post a pic? Flattering or just creepy?
Yeah I'd say that's one casting done.

I'd say that's spot on!I brought this picture of Shirley MacClaine to my stylist when I got my hair cut:
She said at first glance she thought the picture was me! Quite a compliment! And she did a good job on the hair (as she always does):

Dear Gods man, right down to the brows!I would clearly be played by Edward Norton.
Yeah I'd say that's one casting done.i tried that my heritage thing and got a 55% ressemblance to Samuel Muthafuggin Jackson despite being as white as milk!
73% resemblance to Elvis Costello.
and twice some guy called Chester Bennington...

Put a gun on your mantle and see what happens.

This myheritage.com's pretty addicting. I ran another photo scan and came up with Quentin Freakin' Tarantino with 61% match. 
The other two results were some Italian and German guys.
