Meg matched up surprisingly well with Jennifer Love Hewitt, of all people.

Not to far off, really, even if I would have never drawn a comparison between the two on my own. My curiosity about how I'd fare on MyHeritage.com eventually got the best of me — months ago, in fact — and I decided today to find and post the results.

Overall, this MyHeritage.com tells me that I look more like Lance Bass than any other celebrity it knows of. It sure doesn't beat Jennifer Love Hewitt, but I suppose I could do worse. In general, I rarely got above a low 70-something as far as degree of resemblance and I think that has a lot to do with the fact that the system seems to focus more on face position that actual facial features. Still, interesting for what it was.
Me and Lance. Lance and me.

I still say you look a lot like Kevin Spacey, or you would if you shaved your head more closely than in these pics.
