Part Mop. Part Puppet. All Crazy.
Seperated at birth: Maria Bello and Mary McCormack
8Jul2008 Filed under: Non Sequitur Author: SethIt’s systems like blogging and twitter that allow simple questions such as:
To be answered thusly:
Quickly and succinctly, I should add.
But I still think that somehow the two women are related.
Sure, Maria Bello has a skoch more indie cred, but they were both on ER and maybe that’s what has me confused.
Or maybe the fact that they’ve both been brunettes for film and TV roles.
Or that they share a certain passing resemblance to a third actress whose name escapes me, but whose face is fairly familiar. A blonde Mary-Louise Parker, maybe?
I don’t know anymore.
Here are the separated at birth stats:
| Maria Bello | Mary McCormack | |

| DOB | Apr. 18, 1967 | Feb. 8, 1969 |
| Height | 5′ 5″ | 5′ 8″ |
| Hair | Blonde | Blonde |
| Eyes | Brown | Brown |
I’m not the only one that sees the resemblance between these two either.
Anyhow, just some silliness for your Tuesday afternoon.

If I was watching ER in reruns, so that their episodes were aired closer together or sometimes intermixed, maybe I’d get them confused.
For me, though, I knew who Maria Bello was for years before Mary McCormack became a John Wells favorite (ER and WEST WING), so it was easy to separate them as “indie star” and “new woman on WEST WING.”
Both fine actresses, though.

I used to have TNT on in my office all day (caveat: I work there) and I must have gotten confused then.
Since becoming a father almost 5 years ago my non-TV pop culture consumption has drastically dwindled, so I may have had them mixed up for some time.

Hi there,
I do the same thing with Amy Adams and Isla Fisher. And usually, when I think of the name of one, the other’s name escapes me. Like gorgonzola and garbanzo, for whatever reason, I can’t remember both at the same time.

Heder,
I was thinking of creating a separated at birth post for just those two.
I think you’ve pushed me over the edge.

I am adopted and I think we used to play together on the playground.

Ha! I’m glad someone agrees with me for once! Many, many times have I thought two people looked alike, and no one else sees it. Ooo, I thought of another one, I think Julia Roberts could pass as Monica Potter’s older sister. The eyes, the mouth?

Could these two be sisters in some way? :)
Anyone says they are NOT alike is not sane..
