Celebs Who Were Mistaken For Other Celebs

Must-See Celebrity Mix-Ups

Very few things are more humbling for a celeb than A) not being recognized in public and B) being confused with another celeb which probably shouldn’t happen in today’s celebrity-obsessed society (but definitely does).

Hit the jump for a must-see gallery of celebs who were mistaken for other celebs.

Poor Big Sean. We’re sure someone (on Earth) would’ve recognized him.

Spoiler alert: It’s Lebron James.

Not quiiiiiite.

Liza Minnelli aka Lena Dunham, apparently.

By Hayek, they definitely meant Cruz. Because that’s clearly Penelope Cruz.

We could be wrong, but there’s nothing about Carmelo Anthony that screams “Dikembe Mutombo.”

Will Smith, Marlon Wayans. Same thing (not really, at all).

THIS is Will Smith. Sadly, she doesn’t know this.

Uhhh…

Plot twist: It’s Kelly Rowland.

Guess who isn’t Michael Clarke Duncan? Terry Crews, that’s who

Remember that classic pop culture moment when an entertainment anchor confused Samuel L. Jackson with Laurence Fishburne? Of course you do.

Well, this also happened…

First, this… (That’s actually B.J. Britt from “Agents of SHIELD”)

Then…

No, Stephen A. Smith and Stuart Scott aren’t the same person. Fox gon’ Fox.

Being mistaken for a Nobel Prize winner isn’t THAT terrible.
