"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?

A little. Hopefully President Obama and Announcer Ted Williams will meet and talk, preferably about homeless issues and how the country can help. This guy is an inspiration of how quickly God can turn a life and lives around.

Does he bear an uncanny resemblance to President Obama? Only to white people and the police.

Don't know about the resemblance...maybe a tad, but I do know this man has a magnificent voice! His diction and enuciation are just flawless! If his speaking voice is this good, one has to wonder if he sings also, and how great would that be? His story is so heart-warming in these evil times we live in - that someone so down, could be picked up again, and find his humanity and dignity again! Just a great story.I wish him all the best his new life has to offer him, and God bless him.
