Q: Have you seen many Chinese people that resemble Western celebrities?
Strange, I know, but I really wished I'd kept a photo blog of this or something, as during my time here I have many Chinese people that actually do resemble Western celebrities.
I've seen a Chinese David Mitchell (British comedian), Tommy Lee Jones, Patrick Stewart, Martin Freeman... weird I know but have you experienced this yourself?
10 years 42 weeks ago in Arts & Entertainment - China
Along with those that you mentioned: Chinese Jim Carrey, Hulk Hogan, Morgan Freeman, Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt! (
!
He he, I said: "those"!
I've seen a lot that look like Bruce Lee (he was American)
I've seen (and visited) many oculists in China. I check my eyesight regularly.
I have seen many Chinese guys that resemble Jim Royle in the UK sitcom, The Royle Family. Not in looks or appearance. More to do with their common mannerisms.
This is Chinese replication at it's best.
The Yanks have Hollywood and the Indians Bollywood
and soon the Chinese will have

Oh God that was terrible!!!!!
Still, it made me chuckle, so here goes a thumb up (just dont ask where....!) 
I often see Italian gangster lookalikes. Robert De Niro!
Looks like a lot of western men have been busy with the Chinese women 
To add to Traveler's post, some look like Wang Leehom, Pan Weibo, Brandon Lee, Coco Lee, Jeremy Lin, Ang Lee, Kelly Hu, Vera Wang, Lucy Liu, Kristen Kreuk, Ken Leung, Olivia Munn, Harry Shum Jr., Russell Wong, Anna Sui, Kevin Wu, Gary Locke. (all of them North American)

He was athletic, but not that big. It's more about the face.
I never really forget a face that I've seen more than once or twice. I see a lot of Chinese who look the same as many people back home, but with Chinese eyes. Dunno about celebrities, though.

Got a friend here who looks like Lucy Liu
tried to get her to do the Charlie's Angle pose one Day but she would not be in it
