If you were wondering why Johnny Depp was presenting at the Grammys last night, you weren't the only one.
Of all the crazy looks on the red carpet (and there were plenty), there was one we just couldn't shake. No, it wasn't Lady Gaga's egg arrival (our standards will never be the same after her meat dress), or Cee Lo Green's feathery performance (although that was cool). Those were nothing on the scale of weird, compared to the double-take we did when we saw John Mayer onstage looking a lot like Johnny Depp. We weren't the only ones totally thrown off by John's new look. Even Kanye West chimed in.
"I didn't know Johnny Depp played guitar," Kanye tweeted during John's performance. We're with you, Kanye.
Now, we're not saying this whole look-alike thing was intentional on John's part, but the resemblance between John and Johnny (hello, even their names are similar!) is kind of uncanny. Let's dissect shall we? First of all, the facial hair is totally on-point. John has the the exact same cut and shape as Johnny. As for the haircut, well that's not too far off either. John's cut is now just as long and layered as his doppelganger's, albeit a few shades lighter. Finally, to top things off, John's aviators, while not an exact duplicate of Johnny's glasses, totally evoked the same "Too cool for school" vibe.
Of course, as if shared looks aren't enough, both John and Johnny also have this innate ability to make the ladies swoon (some guys have all the luck...).
Anyway, this has us wondering...is the world ready for two Johnnys? Or for that matter, two Johns? We can't say for sure, but we plan to track this development as closely as possible.
What did you think of John Mayer's new look? Do you think he meant to channel Johnny Depp?
