Hilary Swank & Jennifer Garner
She admitted to Conan O’Brien that she is frequently mistaken for the “Alias” actress.
“I do. In fact, people get angry at me because they think that I’m just trying not to sign an autograph for them or take a picture,”Swank informed O’Brien about instances in which fans misidentified her in public.
Swank claimed that eventually she will give in since the audience won’t trust her when she claims she isn’t Garner. “They actually said, ‘Don’t be a b—h,'” she added. “I didn’t want to give her a bad name, so I took a photo with them. Maybe someone will say some day, ‘That’s not Jennifer Garner.'”

Chelsea Handler and Elizabeth Banks
When people mistake her for Handler, Elizabeth Banks said that she impersonates the comedian.
“I was sitting in Toronto and a guy walked up to me and said, ‘Oh my god, my girlfriend loves you. She would die if I didn’t get your autograph. This is so exciting!’,” she said during an appearance on Lately’s former show “Chelsea Lately” in 2011. “He’s like, ‘I just love your books. I mean, My Horizontal Life…’ I was like, ‘Oh, he thinks he’s meeting Chelsea Handler.’ I couldn’t ruin it for him!”
