A man has become a viral hit after his girlfriend shared a throwback photo of him aged 13 - with fans claiming he resembles a famous star.
And it's the last person you'd expect.
After Shannon Welch, 29, shared the photo of her boyfriend Clyff on her Reddit account, fans began claiming he looked strikingly similar to actress Natale Portman .
It has since gained millions of comments and likes from shocked social media users, but rather than turn away red-faced - Clyff couldn't be prouder.
The 24-year-old from New York is seen smiling innocently with long brown hair in the photo - sharing similar features to Natalie, with them both even sharing a beauty spot in the same place on their cheek.
Shannon captioned the photo: "This is my friend at age 13. He looked exactly like Natalie Portman."
She admitted she noticed the similarities straight away, when Clyff sent her the photo as a joke.
She told Mail Online: "He wasn't on any social media when we met so I had no way to look at photos of him, so he sent me that photo to 'hold me over' until we saw each other next in person.
"I laughed and just thought it was two photos of Natalie. A week later (when we saw each other in person) he had to convince me it was him!
"I didn't believe him until he showed me his actual sixth grade class photo."
And she's not the only one to have noticed, as his friends all quizzed her over it too - with Clyff apparently "proud" of the snap, and hopeful that the actress will see it and get in touch.
Fans were quick to share their surprise online, as one wrote: "Holy s**t that's cool, and the resemblance is uncanny. OP you sure your friend isn't Natalie's long lost brother?" While another added: "Even the moles are in the same place."
