Bernie Sanders look-alike competition held in Burlington

Bernie Sanders look-alike contestEight men sporting white hair and glasses lined up in front of onlookers at City Hall Park in Burlington on Saturday to celebrate their resemblance to U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders.

“About half a dozen times people have said, ‘Are you Bernie?’ said Art Sherman of Burlington, one of the look-alikes. “A woman stopped her car and shouted out the window, ‘Senator, I love you!’”

The event was the latest in a string of viral celebrity look-alike contests popping up around the world. It started in October, when a look-alike contest for actor Timothée Chalamet drew hundreds of onlookers — and an appearance from Chalamet himself.

Spreading the word through flyers and on social media, fans have since set up their own local look-alike events.

Recent contests have celebrated the likes of singer Harry Styles in London, actor Paul Mescal in London, baseball pitcher Shohei Ohtani in Los Angeles and Strafford musician Noah Kahan at the University of Vermont.
