Hollywood stars have incredibly photogenic faces that earn them millions in movies and TV series.
And very often, there is a look-alike at home that is not in the business as they prefer to keep a lower profile.
There are several examples: Jennifer Garner has two sisters that closely resemble her. Jennifer Lopez – who was wed to Garner’s ex Ben Affleck – also has two mini-me sisters.
Cindy Crawford has two very attractive siblings that could probably have modeled if they wanted to.
The best example is Penelope Cruz’s sister Monica Cruz who looks so much like her, she worked as her body double in 2011’s Pirates Of The Caribbean: On Stranger Tides.
Then there are siblings that are both famous: think of Dakota and Elle Fanning as well as Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen.
Here is a look at the most interesting siblings with Tinseltown ties.
