Watch: Emmanuelle Chriqui's reaction to being shown her doppleganger Michelle Keegan is priceless


June 19, 2015

With their matching glossy brunette locks, bright brown eyes and delicate features, Emmanuelle Chriqui and Michelle Keegan could definitely pass for sisters. The similarity between the pretty actresses is so striking, in fact, that Entourage star Emmanuelle was completely lost for words when she was shown an image of Michelle for the first time.

The US actress was doing a joint interview with her on-screen boyfriend Kevin Connolly to celebrate the Friday release of the Entourage movie, when interviewer, Laura Holland of Dublin's 98 FM radio station, asks: "Are you guys familiar with the term doppleganger?"

Emmanuelle and Michelle could pass for sisters

When her guests answer in the affirmative, she tells Emmanuelle: "Well I've found your doppelganger," before searching out a picture on a tablet.

Emmanuelle thinks she is about to be shown a picture of Vampire Diaries actress Nina Dobrev, but is told, "No, this girl's from the UK and she's been the sexiest woman in the world for like the last five years… this is Michelle Keegan. "Host Laura turns around the tablet to reveal a photo of the former Corrie beauty, and Emmanuel gasps, putting her hand to her mouth. She exclaims: "Woah, that's crazy… that's shocking to me!"

The interviewer says that the similarities are even more obvious when Emmanuelle is in character as Sloan, as their hairstyles are the same. "Now I've seen it I can't un-see it," she says.

Emmanuel adds: "Well I'm very flattered," as Laura suggests that by default the star can also claim to be the sexiest woman in the world.

Michelle was equally bowled over by the likeness between herself and the American star. She posted on Twitter after seeing the video: "Hahaha!!!! That's crazy! If they need a sister u know where I am!"

Michelle is not long back from her honeymoon after tying the knot with former TOWIE star Mark Wright. The couple's romantic church wedding and lavish reception was featured exclusively in HELLO! magazine.
