I just saw 2 celebrities with the same name and lastname became Friends... Michelle Williams of Destiny's child and Michelle Williams the actress. They didn't try to change names despite of 2 of them existing in Hollywood because its easy to differentiate them, One is black and one is white. They had been mistaken for each other for having the same 1st name and last name though.





They met because Black Michelle receives fanletter asking her to autograph pictures of White Michelle. So She invites White Michelle to autograph the wrongly sent fanletter. White Michelle came to do sign them.

Hahaha that's funny! I like how the ladies tackled it... no diva tantrums here! Thanks for sharing I didn't even know that Michelle Destiny's Child was now doing Broadway.

And the two Michelle Williamson are drop dead gorgeous and highly successful. Who is. The elder by the way amongst the two?

But what a coincidence that they have the same names? Or I'd actually very amazing. Is there a lineage relationship somewhere? I love these two women already.

I think one of them should add a little differentiation to their names to actually prevent future confusions.

Lol funny, i was had a friend back then in primary school, his father and my father had the same occupation, he had the same surname and English name as mine, the only difference with our native name was while mine was Kome, his was Fome.

It helps that these two Michelles have different physical appearances.
I guess this aspect helped fellow actors in Hollywood.
Interesting stuff.

I think that's the major thing that made them to thrive together with the same name in the same entertainment industry. But I am certain that there must have been the occasional mixups somewhere.

They both had different career paths. And really excelled in it. The Destiny Child's Michele Williams can really sing. Just listened to her gospel songs and they are good.

The two of them represent two faces of the American entertainment scenery. And it is a really joyous meeting full of all smiles for the two.
