John Mayer tries celebrity lookalike site; he doesn't look like himself

Permalinks to this entry: individual page or in monthly context. For more material from my journal, visit my home page or the archive.

Remember the facial-recognition "which celebrities do I resemble?" thing I tried a few weeks ago? And my grudging new respect for John Mayer?

Well, now the two have come together. John Mayer tried the face-recognition tool, and posts on his blog that it thinks he looks more like Jessica Lange than himself. Facial recognition sure is accurate! Thanks to Angela Gunn for the link.
