Meg Ryan Would Not Be Pleased

Want to see what celebrity you look like? Click here, upload your photo, and be prepared for the results.

I wondered how correct my casting of Hugh Grant as Herman Munster was (see earlier post), so I ran Herman's picture through the database.

Hugh wasn't even on the list! Myfacerecognition-celebrity matches posted Magic Johnson as the celebrity who most resembled Herman. John Travolta, Dr. Phil, and Matt Dillon were on the list, too. But the most surprising Herman Munster look-alike was Meg Ryan, who appeared on the list above Matt Dillon!

So Meg, think about it. Men have traditionally played the best monsters: Frankenstein, Dracula, and Hannibal Lecter--even King Kong and Godzilla were male. The time is now, Meg! Break this field open for women. Hermione Munster. Herman Megster.

Go for it, girl!

I put my picture in and egads - Sylvester Stallone was one of the pics that came back and several others ending with Peter Sellers - only a couple of women - that was funny because some of the faces I didn't have a clue who they were - going to try it again and see what it comes up with this time - E :)

Correction - Peter O'Toole was the last one - but even Sly was only a 60% match - I've posted a collage of the other matches on my blog - so come check it out - lol - it was fun - E :)

Thanks for stopping by Danette. I have finished doing the kids and myself - and thanks for the comment on Hailie. When we were viewing my blog - she saw that there was a comment on hers. So my email notification is sometimes slow or I didn't see your notification come up. Anyway - thanks for stopping by - E :)

Well I think you look much prettier than Meg Ryan!

I put 3 different pictures in of me and I got Sophia Bush, Raquel Welch and Kelly Hu. The first two really made me laugh And they were matching with them at 67% but Kelly Hu came in at 72% and that at least made more sense to me since I am Asian American! And some of the pictures in my list were people I have never even heard of.

Brenda,
Yes, but think of that lustrous hair--you could get a spot on a shampoo commercial!

E--I stopped by--your daughter had some good comparisons.

Ello,
Thank you! I ran myself through and I got Carmen Electra and Christie Brinkley, and I'm like feeling pretty good, so I keep reading and there are MEN on the list and I'm like No! No! No! I don't look like a man! NOOOOOO!

Well, that was interesting Danette. I ran the one from my blog and my match came up at Bryce Howard. I'm not sure who she is but she's way younger than me.

Courtney,
Haha! I know!

Chris Eldin said...

Danette, this is hysterical! But I acturally think you're on to something. Why not write a book about it?

Okay, Danette. It's now official. You are hereby dubbed a goob. I haven't giggled this much in a couple of days. Hermione Munster as played by Meg Ryan.

What really sad? I totally remember an episode of The Munsters wherein Herman was in drag. I have no idea if he was Herman dressed as a woman or supposed to be a female cousin or somesuch, but I remember it.

For all I know, I imagined the whole thing...

PS I LOVE your photo - you are gorgeous!
