Pets that look like celebrities?
I posted a photo of my fur baby Ethel, and she looks like a particular movie reviewer...

I think they do this on Ellen Degeneres' talk show - people send in photos of their pets that they think look like celebrities.

Care to post yours here?

3. She does! Too funny!
That's my favorite segment on the Ellen show. It started as people sending in photos of their babies who look like celebrities. My dog Boris doesn't look like any celebrity (that I know of) but he does look like a Gorilla.




He has that same serious looking mouth.


and serious looking brow (most of the time)


and deep brown eyes. He always looks intimidating but he's the sweetest pup you'll ever meet. He wouldn't hurt anything.

One of his nicknames is Borilla.

8. She does indeed! What breed(s) of dog is Ethel? Some sort of terrier?
She's precious. Reminds me a bit of my own little beast.

12. We think that Ethel is a Tibetan Terrrier/poodle mix.
When we adopted her, she just looked like a matted mop. The vet and the groomer both suggested that mix.

Thanks for making me laugh out loud this afternoon -- that's a close call between those two. ROTFL.

4. A friend of mine thinks Pad Thai looks like Princess Diana

Do you agree? I don't. However I did have a cat who struck a pose exactly like Barbara Streisand.



Maybe Paddy looks like Barbara Steisand, I'm thinking

7. Stanzy looks like Nietzsche. Seriously, just look.
Edited on Mon Apr-25-05 06:06 PM by American Tragedy


When I look at that face, I immediately think "psychotic nineteenth century German philosopher".



The resemblance is uncanny.

14. These are great you guys! Ellen did this segment again
yesterday and I was thinking about this thread. You should send her your photos: http://ellen.warnerbros.com/ . She did a bunch of them yesterday and I think the ones posted here were just as good; some of them are better than the ones they used. They had the CUTEST dog that looked like Barbara Walters, and even a fish, lol (can't remember what the resemblance was there).

No, she's not drunk, it's from our holiday card.
