Yes, I have two pictures of Geraldine de Vorak and Sigrun Solvason with me....I will post two of them for you on Wednesday....sorry that I don't have Chris Marie Meeker!!!! Thank you so much! Geraldine de Vorak did played as vampire in "Dracula" with Bela Lugosi (1930) that really like Garbo....so she rose up from coffin and walked slowly into the Castle room! Beautiful! Do you have a movie "Dracula"? Geraldine was so mysterious and walked on the Hollywood streets and many fans were chased her and tore her clothes and begged for autograph but she was not real Garbo.....really funny! Check my post "Who is the best Garbo alike" to see the small picture and story about Geraldine de Vorak!!!! Love ya, D.L. ;D

Oh thank you Dave!! I’m so impatient to discover her face!! And I also wonder.... how Betty Dietrich was face on because her profile is pretty good!!
The tragedy of Sigrun remind me that, when we play the look-alike, it’s necessary to find other interests than just the fact of representing a celebrity with our face, like the artistic search and the joy to please people, otherwise we can fall into the trap of the identification and imagine that we could deserve the same life as the Star . It’s necessary to stay serene and humble, because it’s not really about ourselves . If we take this game too seriously, we can suffer as “pale copies” whereas if we just play it for fun, we stay our own hero and share love with people . The way celebrities share love with the audience is the most fascinating and pure thing I ever know, because I currently see so many stressed people around, incapable of such thing, that it seems to be the only true love in existence even if it’s just through the image . When I understood that I could play the look-alike of GG, I thought : “If only I could feel, just for a moment, that I have the same life as her, being loved by millions of people, it would be extremely cool ” so I made this dream comes true on the week-end. But, on the Monday morning, I was still bothered by the usual reality
Sigrun was different coz she really felt she had a potential to have her own popularity 8-)and became too sensitive to her situation or false promesses. It’s so sad because, normally, the fact of being a look-alike should not be lived as an unfair thing, all the more you can always find someone looking a little bit like you among the celebrities, don’t you think? Then, after, you go to the fans board, and become their……beloved!!

:-*Love ya too:-*

Hobby, I agreed with you that Betty Dietrich (GG alike/double) was perfect for the profile face of GG!!!! Few GG doubles were not known at all because it was only public in the magazines and some films, etc...it was few! Well! Garbo was the beat------ful than all because GG was the perfectist!!!!! sigh! Thank Garbo for only One Divine! Love ya, D.L.

Yes, there is no doubt
I think there should be more advertisement about the kind, styles and values that surrounded her anyway, because the Star is unique but her values and kind can belong to other people , that’s why she pleases them . And when it’s missing, we get with difficulties what it’s suitable for us . For example, GG talked about useful things like the right to complain (but with something cute, not bad) and I noticed that, nowadays, a lot of people don’t understand this simple right just because we don’t have this cute image anymore . It’s sad but they learn and accept almost everything only if it’s given by the advertisement and image . That’s why GG should not be so hidden. Even for the clothes, it’s a problem, for example, when you don’t find enough things for your thin bust just because it’s not fashionable anymore. It happened to me . It should enter the market definitely as an existing kind (that was represented by Garbo ). I hope there will be more things about her during and after her centenary (and that’s why I do the look-alike too) ;D

How strange about Garbo's double in "Mata Hari"....Dancer June Knight, who was hired to double for Garbo in the opening sequence, recalled Greta's keen interest in her costume when she modeled it for Adrian. "She'd feel a little here and then a little there and so forth. It felt strange and yet somehow familiar, the kind of things boys were always trying," she said. "I didn't really mind it at the time because I was so young and dumb. I didn't figure out what she was doing until it was over." by Karen Swenson a book page, 258 (Greta Garbo: Life Apart)

I watched the Mata Hari (Garbo film) repeated many times during first Garbo danced around the god....when the double Garbo danced in the far away scene so I noticed her body was full of curve seemed not real Garbo because Garbo was so slender....when in the close-up was the real Garbo stood up by the god....really different! I was shy and embarrassed when Garbo rubbed her breasts in front of the god....seemed sexy too much! Ha ha ha ha!!!! I like this movie real good....I hope DVD will get "Mata Hari" next year!!!!!!!

Now I could do your Garbo with no double, with a bust of 34B (90B in French), but when it was more slender it was nice too, just different, more sporting, in harmony with the rest of the body with a softer contrast. Now I have a melting of the two kinds. I will send you a pic to show that the Garbo "kind" has the curve too. It's just a question of weight, but we want to stay chic.

;D Hi darling, I saw a picture of young Garbo wore swimsuit in her german film "Peter the Tramp" she was so different that her body was so curve and her legs were nice, too....until she lost her weight because MGM boss said "Americans don't like fat!" Garbo obeyed her nasty mean boss! She worked so very hard and suffered alot in the films! She never get overweight again! She stayed as slender as long time to keep her walk everyday, what's so interest because I enjoy to walk long miles to keep me slim and my legs are getting strong and muscles up! Whooooooa! D.L.

I saw another look-alike of Garbo just the day after I posted you the details about the other look-alikes (strange no ?). She was about 40 years old, and had the kind of GG’s gaze with the eyebrow like a large arc, the blue and intense eyes (and the rest was similar too, especially the form of the nose and the thin face). She made a strange move in front of me (she seemed to do it intentionally) so I looked at her and then I saw her eyes.. :owwooouh my g.., then I watched somewhere else ‘cause I needed to take some breath. We were together in the suburban train, I sat down in front of her by chance. She watched my Garbo side in the pane while I looked at her again . She lives near the Dream City of the look-alikes I told you about. In my mind, I sang : “YYeaah, the dream city comes alive!!!” ;D because there’s a song about this city. It is a remake of “Erotic City” by Prince, I just change the lyrics (but sometimes I keep erotic ‘cause GG is sensual, yes she had curves). It’s cool ‘cause we can whistle it easily and there’s a special meaning with the word “sometimes”: some people can “maybe” love “sometimes”, ‘cause they are not always available in this money money society .
I also saw two old ladies recently (and one with the black hat of GG like a witch)!!! And at the moment, the one who really frightens me is Jim Carrey’s look-alike. Each time I’m afraid he becomes as in The MasK, I become red and yellow, every colors. I also saw Blondie, Vincent Ventresca and Tobey Maguire’s doubles that I absolutely LOOOoove and a lot of others!!
