12 Celebrities And Their Lookalike Cars, As Voted By The People Of Twitter

Nature and technology do work in mysterious ways...

Some celebrity lookalikes are so random they stop you mid-scroll, and this one starts with a Volvo and Nick Kroll. A Twitter post kicked off a chain of comparisons that paired famous faces with cars, and the results are weirdly convincing.

The thread moved fast from one celebrity to the next, with people chiming in on everything from Vince Vaughn to Elon Musk. Some matches are based on shape, some on vibe, and a few are just plain funny, which is exactly why the post took off.

It's not unusual to find faces in objects since our brains have evolved to look for a face with which to communicate (I come in peace). This phenomenon is called pareidolia.

You've seen Cars, right? Those faces look like they belong on those cars.

So what if it is just a cartoon? It is awesome and totally believable.

The front of an automobile activates our facial recognition mechanisms. We have a new best buddy that can transport us wherever, with two headlights for eyes and a grille for a mouth.

Many individuals were able to recognize the Kroll car face, and many more took advantage of the thread as an opportunity to describe what type of car they've always imagined a celebrity to have.

That pareidolia vibe also hits like the Cesar Awards claim that a makeup artist impersonated Jim Carrey’s “fresh appearance.”

Jimmy Fallon is the best reply we’ve seen. The new Toyota Prius does look a lot like him.

Now, we doubt that nature took Toyota as inspiration while crafting the famous entertainer, and of course, there is the age difference; in case you are wondering, Fallon is older than the Toyota Prius.

So, it was probably the Toyota’s designers who copied Fallon’s face. Yeah, that must be it…

Although, we can’t deny that the Tesla Truck does resemble Elon Musk. Is that the ultimate form of narcissism? Building a car that looks like you?

That thread had no business being this funny.
