Swedish Model Looks More Like Leonardo DiCaprio Than Leonard DiCaprio

Swedish Model Looks More Like Leonardo DiCaprio Than Leonard DiCaprio

This is weird.

Why do so many people look like Leonardo DiCaprio? This is the question that keeps me awake at night.

The latest in a pretty long list of Leo lookalikes is this Swedish model and skateboarder.

Konrad Annerud, 22, has been cashing in on his similarity to the super star and boasts an impressive following on social media.

He told a Swedish site nyheter24.se: "It's fun to be like him, he's handsome," although it's not without its drawbacks, because our man Konrad added that one year he almost felt like shaving his head, because he got so sick of people calling him 'Leo'.


I think as lookalikes go, there's definitely worse people to look like than Leo.

Does Leo's dad have some explaining to do?

So, back to the main question, here. Why, oh why, do so many people look like Leonardo DiCaprio? Can we arrange to get them all together and put on a Leo convention?

I can't write an article about someone looking like DiCaprio without including Roman Burtsev, my favourite of all the versions of Leos out there.

Roman, who is actually eight years younger than Leo but has clearly had a much tougher life, has managed to make a bit of a career for himself, thanks to his looks. He's appeared on a reality show in his native Russia as well as making a string of guest appearances on various TV shows.

He also appeared in a wonderful advert for Pyat Ozer Vodka, in which it got a bit meta and Roman was fed up of his life of fakery and is just wanting something real.

Alongside Roman, there is also this fella, Devin Harjes, who is an actor - he's been in Boardwalk Empire and Orange is the New Black.

Of course, who could forget this man from the US archery team at last year's Olympics? Brady Ellison picked up a silver at the Rio Games but no one really cared, because they were too busy saying, 'shit, is that Leo?'


There was also this young man who was getting involved with the Ukrainian crisis.

I think this one might actually be Leo, he loves a bit of activism and I can't read cyrillic, so that could say 'Leonardo DiCaprio: pissed off actor' underneath.

And, let's not forget Judy Zipper here; although, in fairness to his dad, there's no way he could be responsible for this one.

A whole world of Leo's to enjoy.
