Is Lorde Gloria Estefan's Long-Lost Daughter?

Though Lorde, the 17-year-old rising pop star, hails from Auckland, New Zealand, she looks like she could be the long-lost daughter of Cuban-American pop star Gloria Estefan, 56.

Here’s a look at other artists who appear to have been separated at birth:

Drake, Al B. Sure! & Christopher Williams

Hip-hop star Drake, 27, may have still been in diapers when ‘80s “New Jack Swing” stars Al B. Sure!, 45, and Christopher Williams, 46, were popular, but Drake’s urban sound that merges hip-hop and R&B is directly descended from them.

In fact, as the photos above illustrate, Drake looks like he could be related to Al B. Sure! and Christopher Williams as well.

Janelle Monae and Anita Baker

Anita Baker, 56, and Janelle Monae, 28, have a lot more in common other than being dead ringers for each other.

Both are from the Midwest. Baker was born in Toledo and was raised in Detroit. Monae was born and raised in Kansas City, Kan.

Baker got her start in jazz, while Monae started off in experimental funk and R&B. Both are improvisational, sometimes abstract forms of music.

If a movie is ever made of Baker’s life, Monae should be the first in line to portray the soulful songstress.

 

 Lady Gaga and Dale Bozzio

Much has been written about Lady Gaga’s influences – musical and stylistic. Gaga, 27, is often compared to Madonna, Elton John and even Grace Jones.

But one influence that isn’t mentioned as often is Dale Bozzio, 58, lead singer of ‘80s new-wave group Missing Persons. (Bozzio was also briefly signed as a solo artist to Prince’s Paisley Park Records in the late '80s.)

Bozzio may not be the first name that comes to mind when Gaga’s influences are cited, but there’s no denying their uncanny resemblance.
