Celebrities: what a crowd of muppets

Both Darren and Rick have covered Sesame Street this week. I was beginning to feel left out inspired. So here, gratuitous celebrity lookalikes - in fact some are so uncanny you'd have to wonder where they got the inspiration:

























All these and more on TMZ. The Elmo one is just scary.

Who's your favourite Sesame Street / Muppet show muppet, and if you could pick one to play you, who would it be? I think I'd go for Count Von Count.

The Ben Affleck one is genius.

I loves Elmo - I wants to take him home as my pet.

Grannymar said...

Mmmmm! I'm not sure. You choose who should play me.

some awesome likenesses.

can i top that? sortof.
i did a photoshoot yesterday of the puppeteer for the main character in the Northern Ireland version of Sesame Street, called Sesame Tree, which began airing on BBC in April.

I didn't get to see any sesame street characters, though i did see some which were very like those in Labyrinth.

That was AWESOME! I love the Adam Sandler one.

As for my fav - probably Oscar the Grouch, just because I know just how he feels! :D

Really quite excellently done, Darragh. Hilarious stuff.

Does anyone have a JPEG of the thing the Irish Sun did a few years ago of the Irish soccer team as muppets? Now that was a classic.
