You may think Star Wars: The Force Awakens actress Daisy Ridley looks a bit like Keira Knightley and that’s fine, but just don’t tell Ridley that.
There are certainly worse actresses to be compared to but as the Daily Mail reported, Ridley is not crazy about the comparison to Knightley. The Force Awakens star said she has been compared to Knightley all her life and is tired of it.
“This is the one thing that I’m actually so ‘ugh’ about,” the 23-year-old said. “But it’s like, ‘Why do I have to be like someone else?’ People have always said that I look like Keira Knightley. But it is actually really frustrating.”
Ridley seems bothered not so much by Knightley, but by being compared to anyone else at all.
“I just think every single person in the world has their own thing going on,” she said. “And I just want to be me.”
Of course, as Yahoo Celebrity noted, Ridley is not the only actress to speak up about how she doesn’t enjoy being compared to someone else in Hollywood.
Zooey Deschanel once called the look alike comparisons between her and singer Katy Perry “annoying.”
