It's a universal truth that each and every person on this earth has a celebrity doppelgänger, a famous counterpart that will cause countless people to point out that "Hey, you look like [insert A-list star here]." As fans have seen over the last few episodes, there are plenty of celebrity lookalikes on The Bachelorette as well, despite the fact that each contestant is, in their own way, now famous (or at the very least, semi-famous). But what does it mean to have a celebrity lookalike? Does one inherently share the traits of their star counterpart? Can these men channel their lookalikes to find success on The Bachelorette ?
It might be to soon to tell about that one, but it's clear that many of the Bachelorette men have crazy-accurate celeb counterparts. Some of these lookalikes are bound to be closer than others; not every contestant can share an entire face and personality with a star, like, say, Derek does. Hopefully, though, this list will serve as a handy guide when your parents say, "Doesn't Robby look like that guy from that TV show that you and your friends won't stop talking about? What's his name again?" With so many men in competition this season and a lot of names to keep track of, it doesn't hurt to give a few of them more memorable aliases. You might not remember who James S. is, for instance, but you likely know which contestant looks most like Paul Rudd.
Alex
He looks just like...
James Marsden
While Alex may be shorter than Marsden, those wide eyes and pearly whites give off some strong similar vibes. Both men also seem to be natural showmen in their own ways.
Ali
He looks just like...
Adrien Grenier
Ali and Grenier look like they could both be part of a familial Entourage.
Brandon
He looks just like...
Christian Bale
I can only hope that Brandon is secretly Christian Bale Jr. doing method acting research.
Chad
He looks just like...
Jensen Ackles
I mean, look at those jawlines. No wonder Chad has such Supernatural good looks.
Chase
He looks just like...
James Tupper
Hopefully Chase doesn't find a reason to go looking for Revenge after this season.
Christian
He looks just like...
Jesse Williams
Christian looks like he could subb in for Williams's role as Jackson Avery on Grey's Anatomy.
Derek
He looks just like...
John Krasinski
This is the celebrity lookalike to end all lookalikes. The smile, the ears, the hair, and that mile-long gaze into the nearest camera...
Daniel
He looks just like:
Brody Jenner
Daniel would probably love the chance to get to party with Jenner at some point. Whether Jenner would like Daniel is a whole other question.
Evan
He looks just like...
Jimmi Simpson
If Simpson hasn't yet played an Erectile Dysfunction Expert in one of his many roles, hopefully, lookalike Evan will provide some inspiration.
Grant
He looks just like...
Coby Bell
These two know that success is all in the eyebrows.
James F.
He looks just like...
Paul Rudd
James F. already has the Rudd smirk down. If he can continue to emulate the Marvel heartthrob then James' chances of getting to the end are pretty good.
James S.
He looks just like...
Chris Evans
These All-American boys have an enthusiasm and a sense of humor that makes them fantastic counterparts. Will the cocktail of Bachelorette superfan and boy-next-door that is James S. work for JoJo? It certainly worked for Evans, who starred in three of the 15 highest grossing movies of all time.
James Taylor
He looks just like...
James Taylor
OK, they don't look that much alike (or at all). But their names are literally the same, so when you look at Bachelorette contestant singer-songwriter James Taylor, chances are you're going to be thinking of the more famous singer-songwriter James Taylor.
Jordan
He looks just like...
Pablo Schreiber
Jordan bears a striking resemblance to Schreiber, who is best know for being the diabolical prison guard "Pornstache" on Orange Is The New Black. Luckily, Jordan seems like a much better guy, but it's probably a good idea to avoid any mustaches for the time being.
Luke
He looks just like...
Jake Johnson
Luke comes across as an extra-smouldery version of Johnson, known for his role as Nick Miller in New Girl. Hopefully Luke can channel into the same charm that Johnson brings to New Girl during his time on the Bachelorette.
Nick B
He looks just like...
Stephen Moyer
Electrical Engineer Nick B comes across as a softer-faced doppelganger of True Blood's Stephen Moyer. However, soft features didn't stop Moyer from playing an enticing vampire for seven seasons, so perhaps Nick can use some similar vampirical charm to get a steady stream of roses.
Robby
He looks just like...
Aaron Paul
Hopefully, Robby's luck with women is better than his celebrity lookalike's most popular character, Jesse Pinkman from Breaking Bad .
Vinny
He looks just like...
Patrick Dempsey
Vinny looks like he plays Dr. McDreamy in an alternate universe version of Grey's Anatomy. Given Dempsey's proclivity for starring in romantic comedies, maybe Vinny's looks can make him the male lead of the rom-com that is Jojo's time on The Bachelorette.
Wells
He looks just like...
Orlando Bloom
Shiver me timbers! Wells may not be the most roguish contestant on The Bachelorette this season, but he's certainly reminiscent of a famous cinema pirate.
The contestants of The Bachelorette this season know how to look good, but part of that comes from the fact that many of their trails have been blazed before. Without the hippie-chic that Christian Bale regularly puts on in public, would The Bachelorette have found room for someone like Brandon, for instance? There are plenty more qualities to these men than just their celebrity doppelgangers, but that doesn't mean that their lookalikes won't come into mind when JoJo (who looks a lot like Isla Fisher) is handing out roses.
