Splitting Images is a celebrity lookalike company in the U.K. They have a ton of people that can be hired for your next party, corporate event, or other entertainment-related function, though some of the lookalikes look more like the celebs than others.
For example, these guys look like Rowan Atkinson so much that they could probably commit some crime and he'd be blamed for it, and this guy could probably do the same for Bing Crosby, if he wasn't, you know, dead and all. But a lot of these people seem to be stretching things a bit. Do these woman really look enough like Pamela Anderson? And does this guy really look like Mr. Spock? I guess wearing a costume and/or having a pic taken in a particular setting helps.
Of course, you could get a Leo Sayer lookalike, though hiring the real Leo Sayer now would probably be cheaper now.

The Justin Timberlake could also find work as Kevin Federline, if anyone on the planet ever wanted to hire a Kevin Federline lookalike.
And if your claim to fame is working as a Michael Bolton impersonator... kill yourself.

Lookalikes, celebrity impersonators and tribute acts come in all grades of quality and authenticity and at widely varying fees that reflect the standard of their performance (or lack of it)...
The non-profit exclusive membership organisation www.lookalikes-unite.com is open to only high quality, well established professional acts and is usually a good reference point for high grade fake celebrities.....

LOL... Oh yeah... that white guy really looks like Sammy Davis Jr.
And their Danny De Vito is a tad too tall.. like a foot too tall!
I have to admit, they have some that would have me do a double take. Like Halle Berry and Gordon Ramsey.
