WE ALL LOOK ALIKE! BLACK CELEBRITY MIX-UPS

Actor Samuel L. Jackson says people always mistake him for fellow actor Laurence Fishburne. Do you see the resemblance? Because I sure don't! 

Take a look at this clip as Jackson starts to give host Sam Rubin a ribbing for the mistake. Later, Rubin explains the mix-up in a follow up clip.

It doesn't matter if we're alive or dead, we are STILL mistaken for each other! Soap actress Marguerite Ray (left) who played Mamie Johnson on Y&R passed away last year yet a photo of the actress who later took over the role (right) was shown during the Daytime Emmy's memorial montage! Her successor is still alive by the way.

...And it's not just people. Black films are mistaken too! Hidden Fences? Really? Take a listen to the "Donkey of the Day" clip below:

So what's your take? Why are black actors and even films often confused? Tell me your thoughts.
