Lifetime’s ‘Lookalike Love’: Meet Celebrity Doppelgangers in a First Look (VIDEO)
Lifetime is bringing a new social experiment to its network with its latest series Lookalike Love, which is slated to debut Wednesday, July 7.
The series follows four couples in which one partner has physically transformed themselves into their celebrity obsessions including Kim Kardashian, Beyoncé, Marilyn Monroe, and Barbie. Along with looking like these icons, the individuals also embody their doppelgangers by copying speech patterns, mannerisms, and donning extravagant fashions.
Lookalike Love examines whether the relationships between the celebrity lookalike and their partners are authentic and looks at how the lifestyle impacts their bonds with family and friends. Among the individuals featured is Jasmine, a woman who likens herself to Hollywood legend Marilyn Monroe.
