Here is one last blog post from our intrepid intern, Mary Beth Sekela, before she heads off to Chile to study abroad:
We've heard this one before. Someone says the following about a celebrity, politician, or maybe even the cashier at the coffee shop down the street: "She looks like a horse."
How rude. Or, maybe not. For those of us who sigh and smile at the sight of a beautiful equine face, this potentially offensive comment could, in fact, be taken as a compliment.
But what if the tables were turned? Instead of pointing out celebrities who look like horses, Theequinest.com has recently posted pictures of horses that look like celebrities. Clever, clever.
While it may be a stretch to equate the dreads on Angelina Jolie with the braids on "Sally" the horse, some of these comparisons are right on. That sleepy foal looks exactly like Gizmo the Gremlin, and the apparently displeased horse with all four feet off the ground does a very nice impression of the maddened Tom Cruise.
Admittedly, J-Lo's rump bears little resemblance to her equine counterpart's curves, but I have to award brownie points for creativity.
It's Bat-Horse, though, who really takes the cake. "Eats hay by day and saves Gotham City by night." Ha! That fly mask and grim horsey smile say it all--see you later, Christian Bale, there's a new hero on the block.
If you enjoy good old-fashioned silliness, this is one photographic display you won't want to miss.
Do you think your horse often bears resemblance to a certain celebrity? Or maybe vice versa? Share your thoughts.
