You might have heard the doppelgänger story a lot of times in the famous supernatural teen drama The Vampire Diaries. The word refers to a phenomenon that humans of similar looks live on this planet. Well, it sure feels uncanny to see from one’s eye, but amazing at the same time. There are many celebrity stories we get to hear when they are mistaken for someone else. For instance, Henry Cavill has been asked for autographs and called Matt Bomer many times. Likewise, have you noticed the similarity between Ryan Gosling and Anne Hathaway’s husband?
