"A lot of people have been telling me that I look like President Obama from a side view."

Known for her no-nonsense 'Real Housewives of Atlanta' ways, NeNe Leakes probably didn't know she had a long-lost twin who was also on television. But we do. All we can say about the mystery person is that she has historical comedy ties. Find out who the celebrity look-alike is.
Celebrity Look Alikes Vol. 6
Ellen Cleghorne:
For a few years, Ellen Cleghorne impersonated various characters on 'Saturday Night Live,' including Natalie Cole, Aretha Franklin, Patti LaBelle and Whoopi Goldberg. However, there's one particular reality star that Cleghorne has yet to portray.
Nene Leakes:
Known for her no-nonsense 'Real Housewives of Atlanta' ways, Nene Leakes probably didn't know she had a long lost twin who was also on television.
Ellen Cleghorne/ Nene Leakes:
Same chocolate complexion, eyes, nose and mouth. What else can we say? But don't take our word for it, you be the judge! Photos don't lie.
Paul Abdul:
The former Los Angeles Lakers cheerleader and '80s pop music sensation had a career resurgence with the the talent competition series 'American Idol.' But there's another singer from the synthesized music era who is her dead ringer. Guess who?
Lisa Lisa:
It's none other than Lisa Lisa (aka Lisa Velez), the original Puerto Rican pop music princess who has a string of radio hits during the mid-1980s with Full Force and The Cult Jam. With songs such as 'Head to Toe,' 'I Wonder If I Take You Home' and 'All Cried Out,' Lisa Lisa and The Cult Jam became a force to be reckoned with on the dance-music scene.
Paula Abdul/Lisa Lisa:
Talk about seeing double. Abdul may have Syrian Jewish lineage and Velez may have Latino roots but as you can see from these images they are identical.
Jay-Z:
While recording anti-Auto Tunes tracks for his highly anticipated forthcoming album, 'The Blueprint 3', hip-hop mogul Jay-Z probably didn't think he would have a larger-than-life fashionista jockin' his swag.
Andre Leon Talley:
On the other hand, maybe Jay-Z was taking a few fashion cues from Vogue magazine Editor-at-Large Andre Leon Talley, who is revered as the most influential black man in the fashion business.
Jay-Z/Andre Leon Talley:
Although their skin complexion is a bit off, one thing's for sure, these two sunglasses-clad brothers look like they are well on their way to being the new-school version of Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi's legendary group, The Blues Brothers.
Estelle:
When she's all dolled up, the saucy 'American Boy' singer Estelle resembles a certain Tony-Award winning vocal powerhouse with pipes reminiscent of Whitney Houston in her heyday. Do you know who?

I totally agree. AOL prints this kinda crap story to get a rise out of the black community and notice when they print this kind of story they don't post a picture of the face behind AOL's author who printed or posted this crap. The person or persons behind this story are racist, bigots, clowns, and cowards who only gets his or her jolly off by cowardly saying disgraceful things about African Americans and President Obama. Shame on you AOL I think you guys are smoking the tea leaves in your teabags.

I don't see it at all. Who answers these polls? 45% said yes? I just can't believe that that many people need their eyes checked!

President Obama is an attractive and well groomed man. Unfortunately, Mr. Williams' appearance has been (negatively) affected by the lifestyle he's been leading. Even if he was healthy and well groomed Mr. Williams still would not look like President Obama. How insulting that anyone would think that in his current state he resembles the President.

Look alike, not at all. It's the voice and articulate speaking that comes to mind. Not to mention that he is a light skinned Black man.
Why is there always someone bashing a person that has hit rock bottom, and has lifted themselves up from the streets. This means there is one less person on the street to rob or even kill someone because of poverty, like you or I. This is nothing but a blessing that has come from prayer.
We all have a medicine cabinet that can always turn a person into someone who will fail without help. Everyone I know takes some kind of drug everyday. The world is on dope and we really don't know if the meds are of any help. Is this something called control, or a blessing that has come from your prayers. Hummmmm???
