It is said that every person on Earth somewhere has a double that looks like him like two drops of water.
Russian celebrities are no exception, with some of them having “twins” not found anywhere, but in Hollywood.
10. Gennady Khazanov - Robert De Niro
If you look at the photographs of the young Khazanov and De Niro, you can’t call them doubles - they are too different.
Nevertheless, after 60 years, the traits of both celebrities began to change in such a way that one began to look very much like the second. Gennady Khazanov is currently 73 years old, and De Niro is 75.
Despite the fact that in professional terms they went in different directions - one became a comedian in the CIS, and the second became an Oscar-winning actor, they still have one common quality: both with age do not cease to lead an active lifestyle. Nobody is going to retire: Khazanov continues to act on TV and perform in the theater, also engaged in politics, and his Hollywood double is still acting in films.
9. Garik Bulldog Kharlamov - Matt Damon
These two people in their youth were more similar than the previous couple, but still reached their maximum similarity as they age. Although aging is not a good word, since Kharlamov is only 38 years old and Damon is 10 years older.
Damon is one of the most sought-after actors in Hollywood, and Garik is in Russia. Films with the participation of “Bulldog” are not of high quality, but this does not detract from his talent as a comedian: in this regard, he is definitely among the best on the domestic stage.
8. Sati Casanova - Leticia Sabatella
This pair of doubles is not as widely known as the others, because if Sati Casanov does not need to be represented, then Leticia Sabatella is known only to fans of Brazilian TV shows.
She is 11 years older than Sati, but when looking at her photographs this figure does not fit in her head and looks like Leticia is the same age as Casanova. In her youth, she was a sex symbol of Brazil, so soap operas with her participation could interest even men.
7. Julia Kovalchuk - Sarah Jessica Parker
Probably the most interesting couple on our list for at least several reasons. Firstly, this is the age difference: Kovalchuk is 36 years old, and Sarah is 54. Secondly, Julia has always been and remains one of the most attractive singers in Russia, and Sarah Jessica Parker, although she achieved worldwide fame, was never considered beautiful.
Nevertheless, looking at their comparative photo, the resemblance immediately catches the eye.
6. Ekaterina Vilkova - Amanda Seyfried
Ekaterina Vilkova and Amanda Seyfried are not only similar in appearance, they are also colleagues: both became successful actresses. Of course, Vilkova is known only to the domestic audience, and Seyfried is recognized all over the world, but this is already the details.
In addition, they are almost the same age: Amanda is a year younger than Vilkova, so none of them will age faster. This means that they are likely to remain doubles until the end of their lives.
5. Valeria - Cynthia Nixon
And again, almost the same age, only this time, the Hollywood "twin" is 2 years older than the Russian singer. It should be noted that they are united by another, rather sad circumstance: the peak of fame of both has already passed.
Yes, Valeria is still known, like her songs, and Cynthia is still remembered by millions of Sex and the City fans, but in recent years not a single one of them has done anything significant for her career.
4. Artyom Tkachenko - Adrien Brody
Adrien Brody is 9 years older than his Russian acting colleague, but this difference is unlikely to catch the eye. Thanks to his talent, which brought him the Oscars, Golden Globes and many other awards, he became the idol of millions.
It is possible that Artem Tkachenko himself admires his “twin”. Although he has not yet conquered the world public, he is a notable figure in Russian cinema: he starred in Gogol and several other series, including Alien Blood, Sparta.
3. Maria Sittel - Aishwarya Rai Bachchan
If you do not take into account the undoubted outward resemblance of these women, then for the rest they have nothing in common.
Maria is our well-known TV presenter, who now runs the Vesti news program on the Rossiya television channel, and before that, her Special Opinion on Radio Russia and her Special Correspondent on Rossiya TV Channel. In 2005 she became a laureate of the TEFI Prize in the nomination “Leading Information Program”.
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is her complete opposite professionally. It gained popularity in 1994 when it won the Miss World contest. This victory opened her doors to the world of Indian cinema, into which she confidently entered, becoming a real star not only in Bollywood, but also beyond.
So, she became the first Indian woman whose wax figure appeared in Madame Tussauds, and was also a member of the jury of the Cannes Film Festival. If she had not abandoned her role in the movie "Troy" with Brad Pitt, then she would have every chance to conquer Hollywood as well.
2. Ekaterina Klimova - Kristen Wiig
The star of the dilogy “We are from the Future” and “We are from the Future 2” Ekaterina Klimova is 4 years younger than Kristen Wiig, and this is the unique case when the difference can be noticed with the naked eye. Wiig is certainly an attractive woman, but our Katya is still more beautiful.
As for professional achievements, Kristen is mostly known as a comedian and screenwriter, and her acting work has rarely been successful. What is only a remake of "Ghostbusters" with women in the lead roles, which failed miserably.
1. Eugene Brick - Jennifer Lopez
Evgenia Brik, although not a star of Russian cinema and television, still gained some popularity by the age of 37. So, she was nominated for several awards (including the Nika Prize) for her role in the TV series “Dandies”, and for her work in the television movie “Elegy of Moscow Region”, she was awarded the 4th Best Television Film Festival in the category “Best Debut”.
Jennifer Lopez went much further than her “twin”, having built a successful career not only in cinema, but also in music. The multi-million dollar circulation of albums, awards and the title of a sex symbol are just the tip of the iceberg.
Considering that Eugene is 12 years younger than Jennifer, you can wish her to catch up with her double in the near future in terms of achievements and popularity.
