10 Celeb Mother-Daughter Duos

10 Celeb Mother-Daughter Duos They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. We can’t think of a greater compliment than when a daughter is proud to follow in her mother’s footsteps and take on the same career.

In honor of Mother’s Day, here are 10 famous mother-daughter duos who not only look alike, but also shared the same profession. They remind us of how special the mother-daughter bond is—and how mom is usually the best role model.

Demi Moore and Rumer Willis Rumer is clearly one half her mother, Demi, and one half her father, Bruce Willis. She’s slowly starting to show up in more acting roles, such as a gig on '90210' and appearances in movies like 'The House Bunny' and 'Sorority Row.' As a supportive parent, Demi likes to teach her daughter the tricks of the trade – which apparently include the pole dancing moves she learned during Striptease!

Joan and Melissa Rivers The Rivers ladies have been cracking up audiences and embarrassing red carpet fashion victims for years now. As of late, the hilarious duo can be seen on their own reality show, ‘Joan & Melissa: Joan Knows Best?’ where they let the cameras document their famous, and occasionally rocky relationship.

Kathy, Paris, and Nicky Hilton Perhaps Nicky and Paris Hilton are such good socialites because they took a page out of their mother, Kathy’s, rulebook: Go to lots of parties, but make sure you have a job. Before she married hotel magnats Richard Hilton, Kathy was an actress. Paris has followed the same route with a slew of her own reality shows, not to mention her own shoe line and fragrance, while Nicky has dabbled in modeling and fashion design.

Blythe Danner and Gwyneth Paltrow Blythe and Gwyneth are an award-winning duo: Blythe won an Emmy for her role in 'Huff' in 2004, and her daughter won an Oscar for best actress in 'Shakespeare in Love.' Despite their success, Blythe is just like any other mom and still offers up advice for her daughter. She recently told E! Online, “"We had dinner last night and I said, 'Honey, please, it's great that you multitask, but it's a lot of stress to do that, and I want you to take care of yourself. You've just got to.'"

Goldie Hawn and Kate Hudson The lookalike blonde bombshells have made their respective generations both laugh and cry on the big screen. Goldie did it first with movies like ‘Overboard’ and ‘Private Benjamin,’ then Kate followed suit with ‘Almost Famous’ and ‘Bride Wars.’ Kate recently gushed about her mother, “She is just beautiful. She is out of control! Okay I am pregnant but how is my own mother thinner than me? She looks better than I do, how is that possible?”

Susan Sarandon and Eva Amurri Susan Sarandon sees a lot of herself in her actress daughter, Eva Amurri, especially since Amurri takes the craft just as seriously as Mom does. When Eva was just a kid, Susan recalls, "She did get into a fight in kindergarten because someone was calling me a 'movie star' and she said I was an 'actor.' I thought that was a really significant fight that she had to defend me as an actor and not a movie star.”

Naomi Judd and Wynona Judd Not only do these fiery red heads look the same, but they also have the same day job: they’re the country music singing duet known as The Judds. They’ve won five Grammy awards during their career and are now starring in their own reality series, 'The Judds' on Oprah Winfrey’s OWN Network. Naomi is also mom to Ashley Judd, the actress who’s written a rather caustic autobiography about growing up with her perfectionist mother.

Meryl Streep and Mamie Gummer Being the daughter of legendary actress Meryl Streep may feel daunting, especially when you want to be in the same profession. But, Mamie Gummer is starting to make her own name for herself in movies such as ‘Taking Woodstock’ and the ABC show, ‘Off the Map.’ The pair even starred in ‘Evening’ together as the younger and older versions of one character.

Janet Leigh and Jamie Lee Curtis One can’t forget the special bond that Jamie Lee Curtis and mom, Janet Leigh, shared. Both were horror film legends – Janet giving her famous scream in ‘Psycho’, and Jamie running for her life in ‘Halloween.’ Though Janet has since passed away, she was never shy about the joys of motherhood, saying once about Jamie Lee and her sister, Kelly, “The older the girls get, the better it is."

Peggy Lipton and Rashida Jones Peggy Lipton reached the height of fame when she starred in ‘The Mod Squad’ in the ‘70s. Now, her daughter Rashida can be seen on the hit NBC show, ‘Parks and Recreation,’ as well as movies like ‘I Love You, Man.’ Rashida has said of her mother’s beauty, "My sister and I used to tease Mom about the lengths she'd go to to stay out of the sun and prepare her skin for bed, but seeing how she looks now, I happily eat my words."
