I had barely gotten “do you know who I look like to some?” out, when he thrust his hand towards me and said: “Don’t! I know who!....”
That was a brief conversation with a client after I brought up the subject by saying, “you bear a faint resemblance to Ben Affleck”. His answer: “You think so?”
He said he had never heard that before.
An acquaintance of mine told me she gets “Alanis Morissette” and a lot of looks when she walks through Toronto’s Yorkville neighbourhood.
So that’s why people look at me when I walk through Yorkville during the Toronto International Film Festival. I’ve long thought it was because I bear a strong resemblance to a stock drug-past “old” rock star.
If only I had Hugh Grant’s charms….
