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?

Man, talk about lucky. I just read he's hosting Saturday Night Live this week. Unbelievable. I guess he bumped this week's host. Great for him, I guess. Here's the article I read:

Now I wish Mr. Williams the very best, even though I don't see what all this media attention given to him is going to do but stress him out and possibly lead him into a relaspe, I hope not, he needs to take this opportunity to use this to bring attention to the problem of homelessness and not just think about himself. Ask yourself Ted, What is God giving me this chance for and what is expected of me? "To whom much is given, much is required". Now for you Delia and Creative, I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder but as clarke said you two must be colorstruck or just blind cause me and most(meaning just about everybody I've talked to)people think this man is BUTT UGLY.

Do these two men look alike? In my opinion, no.
While in grad school, a fellow Caucasion student told me that ALL African Americans look alike. She said, "Well, you all have dark hair and dark eyes."
Unfortunately some people are VERY limited in their ability to make distinctions. Imagine their frustration in dealing with two blond, blue-eyed persons.
Even more sad is that such people are generally easily misled. Poor America. We are in trouble when such people take leadership and are required to do high order thinking.
GOD PLEASE HELP US! PLEASE BLESS US WITH WISE, COMPASSIONATE LEADERSHIP. PLEASE PROTECT INTELLIGENT, REFINED, ACADEMICALLY GIFTED, EXTREMELY HARD WORKING PEOPLE, SUCH AS PRESIDENT OBAMA AND FIRST LADY MICHELLE OBAMA, WHO STILL DESIRE TO SERVE UNGRATEFUL PEOPLE.

Indeed he does look like Obama....just wait until he gets his teeth fixed. Why some folks deny this fact I don't know...they could definitely pass for brothers. Take your hand and cover his face from the nose up and it is astounding.
