Zayn Malik and Joseph Stalin
Malik’s Net Worth: $65 Million Malik’s Occupation: Musician Stalin’s Net Worth (Adjusted for Inflation): $350 Billion Stalin’s Occupation: Leader of the Soviet Union
Zayn Malik is best known for singing in the boy band One Direction before going off on his own to pursue a solo career. The singer has an incredibly unique appearance, which is likely due to his mixed Pakistani and Irish/English background. Despite having an original look, Malik has a doppelgänger even more infamous than himself.
Joseph Stalin has been labeled one of the most notorious figures in history and is thought to be responsible for millions of deaths. Despite his reputation, Stalin was quite a looker in his twenties. The ruthless tyrant shares numerous features with the pop star including a gorgeous head of hair, dark mysterious eyes, prominent eyebrows, and a chiseled jaw. Fortunately, Stalin’s appearance caught up to his personality and his good looks didn’t last.
Glenn Close and George Washington
Close’s Net Worth: $50 Million Close’s Occupation: Actor Washington’s Net Worth (Adjusted for Inflation): $525 Million Washington’s Occupation: US President
Award-winning actress Glenn Close is best known for her roles in The Big Chill, Fatal Attraction, Dangerous Liaisons, Hamlet, and 101 Dalmations. Over the years, she has portrayed a man on several occasions, including in the film Albert Nobbs. For that reason, it should come as no surprise that her doppelgänger is none other than the first US president, George Washington.
While there are no photographs of the country’s founding father, there are more than enough artist portrayals of Washington to know what he looked like. He and Close share a number of features, including snow-white hair, soft, smooth skin, a prominent nose, straight lips, and a strong jaw. They look so much alike that there just might be a role as Washington in Close’s future!
Jeffrey Tambor and Benjamin Franklin
Tambor’s Net Worth: $16 Million Tambor’s Occupation: Actor Franklin’s Net Worth (Adjusted for Inflation): $10.3 Billion Franklin’s Occupation: Politician/Inventor
Benjamin Franklin may have been one of America’s founding fathers, but he isn’t exactly considered a handsome man. Having him for a doppelgänger would be an insult to most people; however, the hilarious actor Jeffrey Tambor doesn’t seem to mind at all. In fact, it seems like Franklin may have even inspired some of Tambor’s looks!
The Arrested Development actor may not be inventing the next everyday necessity like bifocals and fire departments, but he has certainly mastered Franklin’s appearance. He shares a number of features with his doppelgänger, including an oval head, distinct nose, receding hairline, and prominent expression lines.
Bill Bailey and Thomas Hobbes
Bailey’s Net Worth: $7 Million Bailey’s Occupation: Actor/Comedian Hobbes’ Net Worth (Adjusted for Inflation): Unknown Hobbes’ Occupation: Philosopher
British actor and comedian Bill Bailey got his start on television shows like Wild West and Black Books. He eventually turned to comedy and became one of the top comedians in the United Kingdom. The entertainer couldn’t be more different from his doppelgänger, philosopher Thomas Hobbes who lived back in the 1500s.
Considered to be one of the founders of modern political philosophy, Hobbes shares several physical features with Bailey. These include a receding hairline, a round face, distinguished eyebrows, and smile lines. They also seem to share a love for quirky facial hair, making it even more likely that their likeness is a result of time travel!
Brad Pitt and Union General Isaac Stevens
Pitt’s Net Worth: $300 Million Pitt’s Occupation: Actor Stevens’ Net Worth (Adjusted for Inflation): $78,000 Stevens’ Occupation: Army Officer/Politician
While you may think Brad Pitt’s rugged good looks are one-of-a-kind, the actor has a doppelgänger just like everyone else on this list. The Oscar winner seems to share his good looks with the first governor of the Territory of Washington and delegate to the United States House of Representatives, Isaac Stevens. He shares Pitt’s dreamy eyes, prominent eyebrows, luscious hair, and the love of facial hair.
Unfortunately, there’s no way that their similarities prove time travel. The Civil War veteran actually only stood at just over 5 feet tall and was considered a dwarf at the time. This is a bit taller than the actor, who stands at 5 feet 10 inches. At least there’s hope for future generations to appreciate their very own Brad Pitt doppelgänger!
