During the world cup, a Brazilian soccer star known as Neymar was busy making appearances. Except, it wasn’t really Neymar. It was his identical, unrelated doppelganger, who calls himself “Ney’s Lookalike.” Could you have a rouge lookalike out there somewhere too? Canadian photographer François Brunelle has been working for years to photograph strangers who look like twins from all over the world. So far, he has captured 250 pairs of doppelgangers. He joined “Something Offbeat” this week to discuss the project. If you have your own doppelganger, you can learn more on his Instagram page, and at his website, http://www.francoisbrunelle.com.
