Even Ryan Reynolds thinks he looks a lot like Kate Beckinsale: 'It is like looking in a mirror'
Well, as far as celeb doppelgangers go, this one's hilarious. Kate Beckinsale had the internet tingling in October when she told Jimmy Fallon about a personal celebrity doppelganger she's had for years. The 'Love & Friendship star revealed to Fallon that she's a doppelganger for Ryan Reynolds. "I look exactly like Ryan Reynolds," Kate told Jimmy. "Like in a shocking way. Like, when sometimes, I see a bus going by with a poster on it I think, ‘Damn, I look hot. Oh, wait, that's not me. Also, I've never done that movie.'"
Reynolds seconded the thought during "The Today Show to talk with Hoda Kotb and Craig Melvin'. "It is like looking in a mirror. I mean I was gonna wear that today," he joked about Beckinsale's evening gown. "This has been something that I've heard for a long time. Other people have said it to me as well." When Hoda and Craig pointed out their similarities, he added: 'I had my lashes done too, so I look great.'
According to E! Online, the hosts did a side-by-side of the two actors, and there was definitely a major resemblance. "We have met one time," Ryan shared about his connection to the 'Underworld' star. Luckily, Hoda did a deep dive into their facial structure to really hone in on what it is that makes the two look so remarkably similar.
