Which famous people do you confuse with each other?
I get three currently popular actresses all mixed up:

1) Jenna Fischer
2) Isla Fisher
3) Amy Adams

It's actually pretty understandable, considering that 1) and 2) have similar names, 2) and 3) are natural redheads, 1) and 3) have been on "The Office" together, and all three have been in comedies with Will Ferrell. Only now am I starting to realize that they're actually 3 different people.

I used to have a very similar problem with Wayne Newton, Neil Diamond, and Lou Diamond Phillips...

5. The Bills...
as in Bill Pullman, and Bill Paxton...what helps me, is that

Pullman was the Prez in Independence Day

And I recall Paxton from his Aliens role...

Another one, Chris Rock, Chris Tucker...

11. Me too. I confuse the Bills.
I also confuse Reese Witherspoon and Renee Zellweger. I don't confuse the looks, just the names because both first names begin with an 'R' and the last names begin with a letter near the end of the alphabet and are long and unusual. (They also were both around for awhile before I knew who either of them was.) When I hear the name, I have to think for a minute to figure out whether it's the perky one or the one I consider quite homely.
