We have all seen some pretty good [celebrity look alikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taylor-swiftthemed-cats) but what about celebrity Muppet look alikes? When you think of the puppets on [Sesame Street](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stranger-things-and-sesame-street) or The Muppet Show, which celebrities come to mind?

Not that I consider Carrot Top a celebrity, but indulge me for a second, if he had a Muppet look alike, who would it be? Beeker, right? How about Andrian Brody? Definitely Gonzo.

Check out these hilarious pics of celebrities and their Muppet counterparts. You’ve got the dead-on ones like Dr. Phil & the Swedish Chef and the dead-on and mean like Tory Spelling and Miss Piggy. But worst is Donatella Versace and Janice; poor Janice.
