7 Celebrities Having a Twin

If you don’t know much about a particular celebrity, the idea of their having a twin you never heard of may seem strangely fascinating and titillating. Just imagine an almost exact replica of your favorite celeb walking about some small place leading an unobtrusive life, joking about the similarity with friends! Only some pairs like the Olsen twins and the Mowry twins are both in it, but with others it is as different as different can be. Here are some illuminaries whose twins are happy to keep out of the limelight.

Scarlett Johansson’s fraternal twin is not a sister, but a brother, Hunter by name. There is three minutes’ difference between them. All through her rise to fame he has been near, staying at her side even at great events, the 2005 Golden Globe Awards for one. Nevertheless, being with his sister doesn’t prevent him from doing great politically. His most outstanding bit of work is participating in President Barack Obama’s 2008 presidential campaign as an organizer.

3. Ashton Kutcher

Ashton Kutcher’s twin brother is around, didn’t you know? Ashton’s fraternal twin’s name is Michael, and his fate was vastly different from that of his famed brother. He had to have a heart transplant when he was 13 because he was suffering from cerebral palsy. So he also built up a career like his brother, but in health, working to spread awareness. Now he is a spokesperson for the Reaching for the Stars advocacy organization and a family man, residing in Iowa.

4. Siva Kaneswaran

As for Shawn Ashmore and his twin Aaron, they feel quite happy sharing a profession – and probably sometimes making people guess hard who is who! Since their joint effort in the Smallville show, they have gone different ways, Shawn memorable for his appearance in X-Men and Animorphs, and Aaron gracing Warehouse 13 and Veronica Mars. Of course, if their producers got the credits right…

7. Elvis Presley

Rock’n’roll might have had two twin kings – but for the fact that Elvis Presley’s brother Jessie Garon was dead on arrival. So, Elvis had to struggle on alone. Well, we can safely aver that he has made it two times over, achieving double fame as an actor and a singer, rocker and ballad performer. Great twice, Elvis!

Here’s something to be said for having a large family complete with twins, working together – or just furnishing support that only a person as close to you as a twin sibling can… Don’t you think having a twin gives a star extra romantic sheen?
