Being the child of a famous star can’t be easy. It especially must be tough if you are planning on following in their footsteps. Doing that is asking for a lifetime of pressure. What’s even worse, is that some of these kids look like the spitting image of their parents. They may want to live a life away from the limelight, but because of that, they are also going to be compared to their parents no matter what. Today, we have put together a list of daughters who look like clones of their famous mothers! Sit back, relax, and have some fun reading this list.
Lori Loughlin and Olivia Jade Giannulli at 18
In the last few years, Lori Laughlin has mostly been in the news for bad things. But most people will know her as being on the 90s hit show Full House. Her daughter, Olivia, doesn’t act, but she is a beauty influencer on YouTube. It’s frightening how much she looks like her mother. We hope that Olivia is successful in life and that she can stay away from trouble, unlike her mother.
Full House was a huge show that so many people loved. We’re sure that Olivia is aware of this, but hopefully, she doesn’t let that pressure have an impact on her career.
Jayne Mansfield and Mariska Hargitay at 27
Jayne Mansfield was known as a bombshell during her acting career. She was one of the most sought-after actresses during the 50s. Her daughter, Mariska Hargitay, is one of the most well-known actresses working today. She has been in the hit TV show Law and Order: Special Victims Unit for nearly her entire career. She’s an extremely talented actress. We’re sure that she got her acting skills from her mother.
The resemblance between these two is so apparent that it is almost scary. We hope that we continue to see Mariska on television for years to come. She is so good at what she does.
Cindy Crawford and Kaia Gerber in Their Late Teens
Cindy Crawford was still in high school when she started modeling. That’s a huge accomplishment for someone so young. Her daughter, Kaia Gerber, who looks just like her, has also taken up modeling. It must be weird to see look at your mother and see so much of yourself. We imagine that’s how Kaia must feel some days. We wish her nothing but good luck in all that she does in the future.
Being the daughter of one of the most famous models can’t be easy, but it seems like Kaia is doing pretty well for herself. She seems to have found a good balance in life.
Janet Leigh and Jamie Lee Curtis at 23
Janet Leigh was a leading lady during her acting career. She was in dramas, comedies, and just about every genre of movie. And her daughter, Jamie Lee Curtis, is also a talented actress. She has been starring in shows and movies for a while. A large portion of her career has been spent starring in the Halloween franchise films. Her first big role came in Halloween when she was just 20 years old.
Jamie Lee Curtis is a spitting image of her mother. Looking at them side-by-side shows you all their similarities. Janet Leigh also passed her strong acting skills down to her daughter.
Peggy Lipton and Rashida Jones at 40
Peggy Lipton was a famous model. She married musician and producer Quincy Jones, and they had a daughter, Rashida. Peggy and Rashida share such a strong resemblance. Rashida is an actress and has been in a lot of shows and a few movies. It seems like great talent just runs in the family! We are sure that Peggy Lipton was so proud of what her daughter has accomplished in her career.
It must be nice to have a model for a mom. You are almost guaranteed to be good-looking. If Rashida hadn’t gone into acting, she could have been a model.
Susan Sarandon and Eva Amurri at 31
Susan Sarandon has done it all. She will always be famous! Her characters are fan favorites of so many people. And her striking features are another reason why so many people are drawn to her. She passed them down to her daughter Eva Amurri, who is also an actress. Having a talented mother like Susan Sarandon must be nice when you need some acting tips for an upcoming show or movie.
Susan Sarandon is known for a lot of movies, but it was The Rocky Horror Picture Show that really got her noticed by people. We hope Eva has a career as long as her mother’s.
Meryl Streep and Mamie, Grace, and Louisa Gummer in Their Late 20s
We are not sure there are many women or men more popular in Hollywood than Meryl Streep. She has been in some of the biggest movies of the 80s, 90s, and 00s. She is a living legend. And she has daughters that all look exactly like her. Mamie, Grace, and Louisa look like they could be their mother’s stunt double if they had to. They all share the same nose!
We’re not sure how she remembers her daughter’s names without getting them mixed up. Not only do they look like her, but they also look like each other. That would be hard to do.
Goldie Hawn and Kate Hudson at 37
Goldie Hawn was known for making comedies and romantic movies. Her daughter, Kate Hudson, followed in her footsteps and did some similar movies. Both of them are very talented in their own way. What makes them look so much alike is their bright blue eyes, long blonde hair, and beautiful smiles. Goldie Hawn must see her daughter and be so proud and happy with what she is doing in her career.
Goldie Hawn and Kate Hudson don’t look enough alike for them to be confused for one another, but if you saw them out in public, you’d know immediately that they were related.
Minnie Riperton and Maya Rudolph at 28
Minnie Riperton wrote some of the most famous songs of the 70s and 80s. She was a huge star with so much talent. Her daughter, Maya Rudolph, is also very talented! Though she isn’t a singer, she has found her footing in the acting world. She is one of the funniest women to ever work on Saturday Night Live. It is easy to see how much they look alike when their pictures are side-by-side.
There must be so much pressure having a mother who made huge hits in the music industry. It seems like Maya has done ok, though. We can’t wait to see what she does next.
Yolanda Foster and Gigi and Bella Hadid Around 20
In the 80s, Yolanda Foster was a well-known model. Everyone wanted to work with her. She had the look, the height, and the hair. And now, her daughters, Gigi and Bella Hadid are also models. The two young women both resemble her mother, and it’s obvious why they were both picked to be models. We hope that they are able to have careers as long and as successful as their mothers.
Modeling seems like a hard job. Sure, a big part of it is just looking good, but there is so much traveling and moving around. We applaud Gigi and Bella for sticking with it.
Kathy Hilton and Paris Hilton at 26
In 2002, Paris Hilton was everywhere. A lot of it was for bad reasons, but that did not matter. She was a very in-demand woman. Her mother wasn’t seen much, but she could be Paris’ twin sister. We know how genetics work and that children get traits passed down from their parents, but that doesn’t make it any less amazing when you see someone who looks just like their parents!
Paris has a sister named Nikki. She looks even more like their mother than Paris does. Look her up and you will see what we mean. She should have been on this list.
Jerry Hall and Georgia May Jagger at 24
Jerry Hall made her name as a model and an actor in the 80s. She was just as gorgeous then as she is now. And her daughter, Georgia, looks like she could be her twin. Georgia has even had a long career as a model that started at the age of 16, which is just insane. Mick Jagger, the front man for The Rolling Stones, is Georgia’s father. She definitely got his lips!
That’s an awesome set of parents if you ask us. One of them is a famous model, and the other one is a famous rockstar. That’s a family we would love to be part of.
Phylicia Rashad and Condola Rashad in Their Mid-30s
Phylicia Rashad is mostly known for her role as Clair Huxtable on The Cosby Show. She was a no-nonsense woman who adored her family in the show. And we’re sure she was the same in real life. Phylicia’s daughter, Condola Rashad, is also an actor but has done more work in theater. It’s amazing how talent can transfer from parent to child. We’ll be hoping to hear Condola’s name more in the future.
We can only imagine how many times Condola has been told she looks like her mother. At least her looks are not all she inherited from her. She was blessed with her talent as well!
Demi Moore and Rumer Willis at 27
In the 90s, Demi Moore was one of the most famous actresses. She even did a little modeling. And that is not hard to believe. Just look at her! Her daughter, who she had with Bruce Willis, is named Rumer, and she is an actress as well. She has the same long black hair as her mother and the same striking face. There are some strong genes in that family!
Having two parents with such illustrious careers can’t be easy to follow. We hope that Rumer sticks with acting and has a career similar to those of her talented parents.
Melanie Griffith and Dakota Johnson at 26
In recent years, actress Dakota Johnson has become a household name. It’s almost like you can’t turn on the television without seeing her in something new. She is so incredibly talented, so it makes sense that she’s in high demand. Her mother, Melanie Griffith, was an actress as well. She got her start at the age of 19. And after that, her career just took off. It’s clear that talent runs in the family!
These two look so much alike. If Dakota was to have blonde hair, she would look just like her mother. We’re sure that they are constantly being told how much they look alike.
Lisa Bonet and Zoë Kravitz at 27
Lisa Bonet had her daughter Zoe Kravitz with rockstar Lenny Kravitz. And all three of them are gorgeous. It really makes you jealous when you see the entire family together. There is no way that it’s fair one family looks that good! Lisa Bonet acted in her younger years, and her daughter Zoe acts now. It’s nice that she is continuing in her mother’s footsteps. She was most recently in Batman.
Zoe has been in some huge movies. We’re not sure what comes next in her career, but we feel that is going to be big! With parents like hers, we wouldn’t expect anything less.
Carrie Fischer and Billie Lourd at 26
The Star Wars movies would be absolutely nothing without Carrie Fischer! She was a fan favorite when the movies first premiered, and she stayed one until she passed away a few years ago. Her daughter, Billie Lourd, is also an actress. She has picked up with her mother left off. So many people love her acting, and we hope that she is going to be acting for a long time to come.
Having a parent that’s an actor already sounds like it can be tough. But having one as talented, funny, and as charismatic as Carrie Fischer must be insane to deal with.
Debbie Reynolds and Carrie Fisher at 40
Just like Billie Lourd’s mother was the famous Carrie Fischer, Carrie Fischer’s mother was the multi-talented Debbie Reynolds. They looked so much alike that it makes you stop when you see photos of them. It must be awesome to be part of a family with so much acting talent. We’re sure they didn’t compare their careers to one another, but there are some huge performances between these two talented women.
We definitely wouldn’t make it in this family. There is way too much talent for us. We’ll stick with writing. It fits us and we can’t embarrass ourselves and our families by doing it.
Kim Kardashian West and North West at 5
Kim Kardashian is a woman of many talents. She’s a businesswoman, does some modeling here and there, and is a tv personality. She is also a very dedicated mother. Her daughter, North West, looks like a miniature version of her. She’s only young, so we aren’t sure if she’ll grow up to want to follow in her mother’s entrepreneurial footsteps, but we wouldn’t be surprised if she ended up being a businesswoman as well.
The Kardashians, love them or hate them, are one of the most known families in America, and the world. Their antics can be annoying at times, but they know how to keep an audience interested!
Kris Jenner and Kim Kardashian West at 35
Genes in the Kardashian family are very strong. For the most part, Kim, Kourtney, and their youngest sister, Khloe, all resemble each other. But it’s Kim who looks the most like their mother, Kris. It’s almost shocking to see them next to each other. And we’re sure that when Kim sees her mother she feels as though she is looking at a future version of herself. That must be a freaky feeling for her.
The Kardashian sisters have a brother, Rob, who also looks like his mother. It’s pretty clear that when a new Kardashian is born, they are going to take after their mother.
Kennya Baldwin and Hailey Bieber at 22
The Baldwins are one of Hollywood’s more popular families. There seems to be one in every age bracket. But Kennya Baldwin, who married Stephen Baldwin, is the mother of model Hailey Bieber. The 22-year-old has been on magazine covers and runways. Her relationship with Justin Bieber thrust her into the limelight even more. She has her mother’s looks, and they are going to keep her in front of cameras for years to come.
The resemblance to her mother is clearly there for Hailey. You can almost tell that someone is a Baldwin when you see one. They all seem to resemble one another.
Blythe Danner and Gwyneth Paltrow at 46
Depending on which generation you are part of will determine whether you are more familiar with Blythe Danner, or her daughter, Gwyneth Paltrow. Blythe had an amazing career as an actress. She has movies and roles that people love and will never forget. The same goes for her Gwyneth. Alongside being an actor, Gwyneth is also a successful businesswoman. These are two talented women who have left their mark on the film industry!
You can’t even begin to doubt that they are related when they are side-by-side. And we’re sure that Blythe is so proud of her daughter for all the things that she has accomplished.
Kim Basinger and Ireland Baldwin at 23
We told you there were a lot of Baldwins in Hollywood! Kim Bassinger is the mother of Ireland Baldwin, who is a model just like her mother. Her dad is the actor, Alec Baldwin. They have different parents, but you can see that there is a resemblance to her cousin Hailey Bieber. This family must be so proud of all of the talent that it has produced throughout the years.
There is no doubt that these two are related. They look like they could be sisters if we’re being honest. Let’s hope that Ireland has a long modeling career like her mother.
Candace Cameron Bure and Natasha Bure at 18
For many people, Candace Cameron Bure will always be known as DJ Tanner from the hit show of the 90s, Full House. Since then, she has gone on to act in several movies. Her daughter, Natasha, looks just like she did at her age. It’s actually wild how much they look alike. We aren’t sure who Natasha’s father is, but you have to wonder if Natasha even got any of his genes.
We’re not sure if Natasha wants the same career that her mother has had, but something tells us that she’s probably just as talented. We’ll have to keep an eye out for her!
Vanessa Paradis and Lily-Rose Depp at 19
Being the child of a model kind of ensures that you are going to be somewhat good-looking. And that is the case for Lily-Rose Depp. Her father is Johnny Depp, whom everyone knows. But her mother Vanessa Paradis is a French actress, musician, and model. That is one talented woman! Lily-Rose is taking after her and is an actress and musician. She’s young, but she looks like a real deal.
The pressure that must come from having two very talented parents seems like it would be unbearable. Hopefully, it doesn’t have a negative impact on Lily’s career in the future.
Courtney Love and Frances Bean Cobain at 17
Frances Bean Cobain has been in the spotlight since she was a little girl. Not because she wanted to be, but because of who her parents are. Her father is the rock legend, Kurt Cobain, and her mother is the musician and artist Courtney Love. We’re focusing on her resemblance to her mother, but there isn’t anyone on this list who looks like an even split of both of their parents more than Frances.
Just like her parents, Frances Bean Cobain is a musician. The talent in that family must be genetic. We can't wait to see what else she does in her career.
Kyra Sedgwick and Sosie Bacon at 26
Kyra Sedgwick is an actress who has a lot of acting credits to her name. She was very successful throughout the 90s. Her daughter, Sosie, who she shares with actor Kevin Bacon, is getting her start in Hollywood. She has acted in a few things, most noticeably 13 Reasons Why. She is only getting started, but if she is anything like her mother, she will be acting for a long time.
Acting is a lot of work, but something tells us that Sosie has the right skills to do it. And if she ever gets frustrated, she has the perfect parents to ask for help.
Madonna and Lourdes Leon at 22
There are not many names in the music industry that are bigger than Madonna’s. She has been writing songs for most of her life, and she is one of the best to ever do it. Her daughter, Lourdes Leon, could be her actual twin. She initially wasn’t fond of being in the spotlight, but after going to college, she started modeling. We’re sure she will be around for a while.
How cool would it be to have your mother be Madonna? She is a living legend! We’re surprised that Lourdes decided to go into modeling instead of picking a career as a singer.
Diana Ross and Tracee Ellis Ross at 40
Diana Ross is one of the biggest names in the music industry. She has done so much for music that it’s hard to even begin to mention it all. Her daughter, Tracee Ellis Ross, doesn’t sing like her mother, but she does act. And she’s so good at it! She has been on many shows and in a couple of movies. She has been starring in the show Black-ish for the last few years.
Tracee Ellis Ross has already had a long career. Something tells us that she is going to be around for much longer. She is just so talented at what she does.
Robin Wright and Dylan Frances Penn at 27
Robin Wright has been acting for most of her life. When she was in her 20s, she starred in the movie Forrest Gump which propelled her into the spotlight. Since then, she has been unstoppable. Her daughter, Dylan Frances Penn, has followed in her footsteps. She is a model and an actress! That’s quite the accomplishment. She has some big shoes to fill, but we are she can do it.
Robin Wright is an incredible actress. Everything she touches turns to gold. Hopefully some of that talent has rubbed off on her daughter. If so, we should be on the lookout for her!
Heather Locklear and Ava Elizabeth Sambora at 20
Heather Locklear got her start in acting as a young woman when she was picked to star in the show Dynasty. She has since gone on to do so much. Her daughter, Ava, has also decided to act. There is no doubting that they are mother and daughter! Ava is still pretty young, but it will be exciting to see what she chooses to do with her career in the coming years.
With a mom like Heath Locklear, you already have a foot up on the competition. We’re sure that Ava has been asking her mom for plenty of tips and advice.
Natalie Wood and Natasha Gregson Wagner at 32
There aren’t many women in Hollywood more famous than Natalie Wood. Through the 60s, she was everywhere. She had been nominated for an Oscar and had been involved in some of the biggest films during that time. She was a star in every sense of the word! Her daughter, Natasha Gregson Wagner, has also been in a few movies. She may not be as well-known as her mother, but she’s also very talented.
We’re not sure anyone would ever expect Natasha to live up to the career of her mother. That would just be insane to expect of someone. She’s doing a good job paving her own path!
Catherine Zeta-Jones and Carys Douglas in Their Late Teens
The amazing Catherine Zeta-Jones worked for a while before really getting recognition for how good of an actress she was. She even won an Oscar! Everyone knows her now, and everyone loves her acting. She is always so captivating in her films. And now, she has a daughter, Carys Douglas, who is pathing her own path in the modeling world. She is only getting started, but she seems to have potential!
Being so young and already accomplishing so much is a big deal. Something tells us that Carys Douglas will be a big name in no time. We’ll be waiting to hear about her!
Leslie Mann and Maude Apatow Around 23
When it comes to funny actresses, Leslie Mann’s name has to be in the running for one of the funniest. She has been in lots of comedies and has always been so good. She and her husband, Judd Apatow, have a few daughters, but Maude Apatow, is the one who has started acting. She has been in a few shows and is showing that she has the skills to make it in Hollywood.
These two are practically twins. We're sure that whenever they are together plenty of people comment on just how much they look alike. That must get annoying after a while!
Lea Thompson and Zoey Deutch at 25
If you have seen Back to the Future, then you probably recognize Lea Thompson. She has been in several other films, but that’s the one that really solidified her as an actress. Her daughter, Zoey Deutch, is getting her own acting career started by acting in some hit shows on Netflix. She’s still young, and she has a lot more acting to do, but her future looks like it will be promising!
If we were to rank the mother and daughter pairs by who looks the most alike, these two would easily be in the top 5. They must hear comments about that all the time!
