“This is it. This is the ONE person that I’ve ever looked at and been like ‘you’re my long lost twin!'” she said. She then told her viewers “Look at this!” and played them a clip of her doppelganger.

“That’s me! Like, I’m gonna do the exact same zoom in a video,” she exclaimed, before re-creating the clip on her phone and putting the two videos side by side to highlight how much they look the same. “Oh my God! It’s insaaaaaane!”

The streamer then pointed out how their features matched. “The hair color is the same, the smile is super similar. The nose to eyebrow, to eye, it’s all so similar! I think she looks like a babier version of me. Awww, she has the dimple like me too! I love that so much!”
