Billy Bragg told a story last year about being in a clothing shop somewhere in the southern USA, and when the salesperson discovered his name and that he was a singer/songwriter, she told him there used to be a Billy Bragg back in the '80s who was ‘pretty good.’
Bobcat Goldthwait has a joke about someone coming up to him and saying “No offense, but has anyone ever told you that you look like Bobcat Goldthwait?”
Supposedly, Charlie Chaplin once came in something other than first (I think I read sixth, but wouldn’t swear to it) in a Charlie Chaplin lookalike contest.

Yeah Dolly Parton lost to a drag queen in a Dolly Parton lookalike contest 😂
Thou shalt not publish an article about looks without including a photograph.

Haha thank you! even if that’s not from the contest, it’s a great picture nonetheless.
pretty sure that has happened to a lot of famous people
Yes, but how many of them named an album after the incident?
Not knowing who Bobcat Goldthwait is, I would take offense at the “no offense”.
