The Hollyward

What's church like in Utah? Well it's pretty fantastic. Full of celebrities. Impossible? NOT EVEN! These crazy things happen, and my friends lucky for you and your entertainment, these things happen to me.

My first week in my ward, I noticed a couple boys in particular looked strangely familiar to me...after a few minutes I knew why. They were celebrities. Or...their stunt doubles at least. First off we have Ethan Embry. Some of you know him as Reese Witherspoon's gay friend Bobby Ray in Sweet Home Alabama, some as the desperate boy Preston (Prestone) from Can't Hardly Wait. (See also: White Squall and Can't Hardly Wait)




This is his stunt double. Looks quite like him no?




Next-and the best match in my opinion-is Keanu Reeves. Some of you know him as Neo in The Matrix trilogy. Some others as Officer Jack Traven in Speed, but I know and love him as Ted Logan, best friend to Bill S. Preston, Esquire, and as Special Agent Johnny Utah opposite Patrick Swazye in Point Break.






Here is the example from my ward. Pretty close, no?


There are a couple more of celebrity look-a-likes in my ward, but alas...we aren't friends on facebook so I don't have access to any of their pictures, bummer. But I will tell you who they look like!!! One girl, looks like she could be Adele's sister-twin even!. We also have an Andy Samberg. Same kind of features, he's my favorite ;).
