You never know who is going to be impressed with the winners of our Celebrity Look-Alike Contest.
A month ago our editor received a call from the producers at the Tonight Show with Jay Leno. As part of Leno’s opening dialogue, the show featured the winning photo from last September’s look-alike contest. Dave Adamson of Cedar Hills bears an uncanny resemblance to Leno, and the producers called our offices to get Dave’s contact information.
There’s no guarantee that the celebrity twins will contact this year’s look-alikes, but there is no doubt these six winners will enjoy the gift certificates and attention they’ll receive.
Then again, you never know who might be reading Utah Valley Magazine.
