Sasha and Malia Obama Look-A-Likes
America is obsessed with the First Daughters, Sasha and Malia Obama. It’s not enough that they have inspired the children’s fashion world with trendy J. Crew clothes, or that Ty has created dolls with their names (and likeness). Now, you will start to see more Sasha and Malia look-a-likes on the fashion runway and print ads. Advertisers and talent scouts are scrambling to search for children that resemble the first daughters. Marlene Wallach, president of modeling agency Wilhelmina Kids & Teens, says the Obama girls are tough subjects to match. “It’s a very specific age and a very specific ethnicity, so there aren’t that many girls that would necessarily fit the bill.” However, two girls have found luck looking like Sasha and Malia and getting paid to do so. Wallach booked Ariel Binns (Sasha) and Kylah Williams (Malia) in the Sept 2008 issue of Harper’s Bazaar which featured a look-a-like Obama family—remember, Tyra Banks played Michelle Obama. Ariel told her mother she wants to go to D.C. to meet Sasha. I wonder if Secret Service would be able to tell them apart. I don’t see a resemblance but you be the judge.

i don’t really see the resemblance. but, even though i think that sasha and malia make such a great first family, all this excitement over them makes me sick. they already have to live in the public eye so much being in the white house, but now lookalike dolls and etc? the media and the public needs to back off of them.

Is there someone who gets their jollies by giving all Frisky articles low ratings? It seems like every time I read one, there is 1 star, rated by 1 person. Whoever keeps doing that needs to get a life.
