LOOK-ALIKES ON THE COVERS

        Browsing through hundreds, no thousands, of magazine covers, I found similarities of how the covers were presented, the angles, the features, and of course the persons on the cover. Yes, the persons on the covers that seemingly the mirror image of another – look-alikes.

        Since my high school days, I ostensibly developed some kind of mental retentivity. Recalling things that I have seen is a part of this. Using this ability, I tried collecting the images of magazine covers with similar features. Believe me, there are many.

          What beauty to behold! It doubles as they unfold! Donita Rose and Daisy Reyes..... The seeking eyes and the pouting lips, no mortal man can resist. And one more coincidence to spice up this post, they have the same initials “D. R.”

          Kathryn Bernardo and Nadine Lustre, again, may I ask: “Are they sisters by any means?” For it seems every inch of one is clone of the other, even the twinkling of the eyes and the bedimpled smiles.

          Dina Bonnevie, who is now a hot grandma, has one of the most beautiful faces in Philippine showbiz. It’s quite hard to find a look-alike worthy of her, until I found a Nadine Schmidt cover courtesy of the second issue of Toyz for the Boyz.

          Sleepy eyes or wide awake, lips to the left or lips to the right, fully-clothed or topless, Regine Velasquez and Amanda Griffin are both anatomies of sultry seduction.

          So young and so hot, two beautiful lasses, one laughing and the other contemplating, both enjoying life on the opposite sides of the world. Yet they share many similarities. Hmmm.....

          Up-posture, down-posture, get the drift? You probably didn’t notice, but there are a lot of similarities between Liza Soberano and Miss Universe 2015, Pia Wurtzbach, at least on the magazine cover. Take a look.
