Being mistaken for Reese Witherspoon—what, like it's hard?

Well, actually, the Oscar winner acknowledges that for daughter Ava Phillippe it may be more difficult than judging a tighty-whitey contest for Lambda Kappa Pi.

But, "I love being mistaken for her," the Legally Blonde star, told Gayle King during a 2021 interview with InStyle, "because it makes me feel so young." However, she noted, the 26-year-old—who made her acting debut on the ABC drama Doctor Odyssey—might be seriously disturbed.

"I'm so proud of her," continued Witherspoon, also mom to lookalike Deacon Phillippe, 22, with ex-husband Ryan Phillippe and Tennessee Toth, 13, with former spouse Jim Toth. "She really rolls with it. I'm sure it's not easy looking exactly like your mother."

And on the days it feels particularly tough, she can phone a friend: Witherspoon's Big Little Lies costar Zoë Kravitz, 37.

Since she and her actress mom Lisa Bonet, 58, "look exactly alike," Witherspoon explained, "whenever Ava is frustrated, I go, 'Call Zoë, text Zoë, she knows what to talk about.' I mean, that's another mother-daughter combo that's like identical twins."

Because, of course, Kravitz and Phillippe are hardly the one ones to have got a little something from their mama.

"From day one, people in the industry were often taken aback by my resemblance to my mom," Kaia Gerber acknowledged to Vogue in 2019 of supermodel Cindy Crawford (who also shares son Presley Gerber, 26, with husband of 28 years Rande Gerber). "As I get older, it happens even more, and it’s not just a visual thing: It's everything from our mannerisms to our voices. It used to be that I didn’t see it at all, but now I will look at a picture and have to take a moment before realizing which one of us it is."

And as much as she appreciates following in her mother's stiletto steps, it's Crawford's work ethic that Gerber would most like to model.

"The biggest compliment is when someone says I act like my mom," continued the 24-year-old. "Beyond her beauty and obvious appeal, she has always been my hero and my role model because of the way she treats people and the lens that she sees the world through, and that’s something for which I’m beyond grateful."

Though the strong genes are great, too. Check out the photos that made Gerber do a double take and more stars with their lookalike offspring.
