At times, this can benefit an actor or actress as it helps them to become recognized and may
spark viewers curiosity about who they are.
Alternatively, some celebrity children have a
hard time coping with being such a carbon copy
of their parents, wishing to break out of the
family mold.
It’s hard to feel like you’re going to be taken
seriously in your professional career when
people are constantly comparing you to your
parent simply because you look like them.
Parents who may have had successful careers
but who chose to not be as active in
Hollywood’s spotlight are often times brought to
center stage because of how much of a
resemblance there is between themselves and
their famous children. Sometimes this helps to
boost both parent and child’s careers while
other times, it can cause resentment or
awkwardness.
Some celebrity family members work together
on films, in the public sector or music industry,
while others prefer to keep their work lives
separate. In many ways, these celebrities
remind us of how much these famous families
are just like the rest of us. Famous or not, you
cannot deny who your family is or the
similarities between you and a family member
when it is clear for the world to see.
No matter how strong or strained their
relationships with their parents are, these 10
celebrities show us that no matter how
individual you are, sometimes there is no
denying how much you look just like your
parents.
1. Eva Amurri Martino & Susan Sarandon:
Susan Sarandon has been a staple in the
Hollywood community for decades. Acting in
films like The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Thelma
& Louise, and even appearing on Saturday Night
Live, Susan has proven she is a versatile and
alluring actress.
Sarandon’s daughter, Eva Amurri Martino, has
appeared with her mother in films including Dead
Man Walking and on the television mini-series
titled The Secret Life of Marilyn Monroe.
In addition to their acting ties, this mom and
daughter pair have some striking similarities.
They both have strong cheek bones, the same
skin tone, reddish-brown hair and similar smiles.
While Eva changes up her look often, when
she’s with her mother there is no denying their
similarities.
2. John & Jason Ritter:
Comedic actor John Ritter, best known for his
roles in shows like Three’s Company and King of
the Hill, always had winning smile and a great
head of hair. Son Jason Ritter, who’s had his
own television acting success with roles on
shows like Parenthood and in films such
as Freddy vs. Jason, shares more with his dad
than just their acting abilities.
Like his dad, Jason has a broad smile and a full
head of dark hair. Their eyes and face shape
also show strong similarities. While the pair may
have taken different avenues in the acting
world, there’s no denying their genes are a
perfect match.
3. Angelina Jolie & Jon Voight:
Actor Jon Voight has appeared in a variety of
roles, including films like Mission: Impossible,
Heat, and Transformers. While his acting career
has been successful, few actors can claim the
success that his daughter, Angelina Jolie, has
had. Over the years, we’ve seen Jolie in films
like Hackers, Gia, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, Salt, and
Changeling.
While Voight and Jolie may not have always had
the closest bond, there is no denying the
resemblances between them. Both father and
daughter have striking eyes, strong jawlines,
pouty lips and give an overall impression of
strength and vitality.
4. Malia & Michelle Obama:
long been known for her ability to remain classy,
sophisticated, and relatable as she has grown
into her life as the First Lady. Barack and
Michelle’s daughters have also remained careful
of their actions and appearance since calling
the White House their home.
Michelle and oldest daughter Malia Obama have
some striking similarities. Both women have
slender frames, long necks, strong jaw lines,
and wide smiles that easily meet their eyes.
While all kids have some aspects of each parent
in their appearance, it’s clear that Malia most
closely resembles her mother.
5. Tish & Miley Cyrus:
The Cyrus family is known for their musical
talents, with both Billy Ray and Miley boasting
successful music careers. While Miley may have
followed in her daddy’s footsteps in her
professional life, she got her gorgeous looks
from her mom.
When you look at Mrs. Cyrus, who works as a
film producer, it’s easy to see where her
daughter Miley gets her good looks. Both
women like to sport bleach blonde hair; both
have heart shaped faces with high cheek bones;
their eyes, noses, and smiles are strikingly
similar. Based on Tish’s looks, Miley has the
potential to keep a youthful and vibrant look
about her for many years to come.
6. Jaden & Will Smith:
It is sometimes hard to believe that actor,
producer and musician Will Smith launched his
career with the 90s hit sitcom Fresh Prince of
Bel Air. The once goofy, laid back actor has
matured into a Hollywood powerhouse. Still,
Smith has kept his feet on level ground and has
always maintained a positive attitude. With his
success and positive thinking, it’s no surprise
that Will Smith has remained in great shape and
hardly looks as though he’s aged since his
youth.
Smith’s son Jaden is following in his dad’s
footsteps, securing his spot as an actor in
Hollywood early on in life. Jaden has taken roles
in films including The Karate Kid and even
worked with his dad on The Pursuit of Happiness.
In addition to their mutual love of acting, this
father and son have similar body types,
prominent ears and the same nose.
7. Mariska Hargitay & JayneJayne Mansfield:
Few actresses were as stunning and alluring as
Jayne Mansfield. While she died at the age of
34, Mansfield left a grand impression on the
world. She went from having small roles to
quickly becoming swept up in the Hollywood
lifestyle, even after having three children.
Mansfield’s daughter Mariska Hargitay has also
made a name for herself as an actress. Hargitay
is best known for her ongoing role as Olivia
Benson on the hit television crime drama Law
and Order: Special Victims Unit.
The two have striking similarities. Mansfield and
Hargitay’s facial structures, eyes, lips, noses
and jawline are identical. The only major
aesthetic difference between this mother and
daughter is Mansfield’s typically blonde hair
where as Hargitay tends to be a brunette. No
matter their hair color or style, they look identical.
8. Kelly & Sharon Osbourne:
Metal loving, loud, expressive and keen on
family relationships, the Osbourne family is one
that gets attention almost anywhere they go. As
the wife of Ozzy Osbourne, Sharon has seen her
share of ups and downs over the years.
Regardless of what she and her family have
faced, she has always held her head high and
conducted herself with class.
While daughter Kelly went through some angst-
filled years, she too has found a way to lead her
life in a happy and fulfilling manner. With their
identical noses, soft heart-shaped faces, similar
eyes and equal affinity for fun, brightly colored
hair, anyone can see that Kelly is Shannon’s
daughter.
9. Donald & Kiefer Sutherland:
While actor Donald Sutherland may not have
been as widely known as his son Kiefer until he
landed the memorable role of President Snow in
The Hunger Games trilogy, Donald has quietly
held his own in the acting world over the years.
His son Kiefer is best known for his lead role as
Jack Bauer in the hit television drama 24.
This father and son have more than just action
packed, dramatic roles in common, as the two
have a very distinct and similar appearance.
Both Donald and Kiefer have prominent
foreheads, nearly identical eyes, smiles and
noses. When they are side by side, it’s like
looking at each of the men through a time
machine because their looks are so similar.
10. Kate Hudson & Goldie Hawn:
stunning as Goldie Hawn and her daughter Kate
Hudson. Both actresses have an insatiable
personality that demands attention, yet comes
off as endearing and relatable. Goldie, best
known for her roles in films including Overboard
and The First Wives Club, is still looking
glamorous and beautiful. Kate’s acting career
includes roles in films like Almost Famous and
How To Lose a Guy in 10 Days.
Despite their 34 year age difference, it’s easy to
see the similarities between Goldie and Kate.
They both have wide, infectious smiles, similar
eyes, similar noses, long blonde hair and fit
physiques.
