We all look a bit like our mother or father, but some gene pools are stronger than others. What I mean by this is that while you may have your dad’s nose and your mom’s hair color, there are others who are literally clones of their parents, and it turns out, there are quite a few celebs who have daughters who are their exact replicas.

When you’re an incredibly beautiful and talented celeb (like so many of them are), there becomes a lot of interest in this person’s life, and that includes the lives of their children. There is a fascination with celeb kids, but even more so when they are the spitting image of their famous parents. Reese Witherspoon's daughter, Ava Phillippe, looks so much like her that you have to do a double-take, and then there are celeb children, like Jessica Simpson’s daughter, who are growing up to look more and more like their famous mothers each day.

And sometimes, it's more than just looks that these celebrity mini-me's share with their mother because they also have the same interests and are following in their footsteps. Below are 15 pictures of beautiful celebs, whose daughters definitely got it from their momma!

Jessica Simpson And Maxwell Drew Johnson Share More Than Good Genes

You don’t need us to tell you why these two are identical, all you need is good eyesight!

Jessica Simpson's daughter, Maxwell Drew Johnson, who she shares with her husband, former NFL tight end, Eric Johnson, may only be aged five, but she's fast becoming her mom's mini-me. And it’s not just her blond locks and blue eyes that Maxwell Drew shares with Simpson, but also a love of makeup, apparently. Simpson captioned this image with a comment about how MAC Cosmetics is her daughter’s “favorite store,” and how they were enjoying a mommy-daughter day out.

Appearance and makeup-loving aside, another thing that Simpson’s daughter gets a lot of public attention for is her name. According to Us Weekly, Simpson and Johnson chose to name their daughter Maxwell Drew as a tribute to their families. Johnson’s grandmother’s surname is Maxwell, as is his middle name, and Drew is a nod to Simpson’s grandmother, whose maiden name was Drew.

Cindy Crawford Is Proud Of Her Mini-Me, Kaia Gerber

It's no surprise that Cindy Crawford had ridiculously good-looking children, but the resemblance between herself and her daughter, Kaia Gerber (who she shares with her husband, Rande Gerber), is unbelievable.

Kaia is also destined for greatness, and although she’s only aged 16, she’s already working in the modeling industry and has signed to one of the world’s most respected agencies, IMG models. She's following in her mother's footsteps, and Crawford couldn't be more proud. She told Net-a-Porter's The Edit, "Kaia's blossoming into such a beautiful young woman and I really want to let her shine. I don't want her to feel in competition with me, although I'll tease her, and say, 'You have my old hair – give it back!' Or, 'Give me back my legs!' But she'll be fine … She's much more together and worldly than I was at her age." So cute!

You Need To Do A Double-Take With Reese Witherspoon And Ava Phillippe

Of all the celebs who have children that are their mini-me's, it is Reese Witherspoon and Ava Elizabeth Phillippe who look the most alike.

Witherspoon was just 23-years-old when she gave birth to her former partner, Ryan Phillippe’s daughter, Ava (who is now aged 18), and it seems that being a young mom has been beneficial in many ways, including the fact that these two have become BFFs. Witherspoon previously shared her thoughts on her relationship with her daughter during an interview with Entertainment Tonight (via Hello Magazine) saying, ''She's my best friend and we do everything together…”

Watching her daughter become a woman has given the actress a lot of mixed emotions because she revealed, ''I alternate between crying and feeling really proud of the woman she's become. It's so weird. I can't believe she's [going to be] 18. She's great, and we did it together. I feel like we grew up together, it's great.''

Julianne Moore’s Daughter Liv Freundlich Is Her Clone

Liv Freundlich is honestly the spitting image of her mom, Julianne Moore. They both have vibrant red hair, pale skin, and a beautiful smile, and it’s not hard to imagine what the 15-year-old is going to look like when she grows up.

Moore is very proud of her daughter, who she shares with Bart Freundlich, and she’s not worried about her decision to live in the limelight. Liv has appeared in the film, The Rebound, but she seems to be more interested in modeling and worked as a J.Crew model at New York Fashion Week in 2017.

Speaking of her daughter’s decision, Moore told People, “When she was really little, she said, ‘You know mommy, some people get really scared when they watch movies but I don’t because I know that they’ve made everything up. She always understood the concept of illusion and I think she understands that with fashion as well.”

She also couldn’t help but gush about what a perfect human Liv is, saying, “She is a wonderful student and a really great girl and an interested person.” Awww!

Tish Cyrus Is Her Lookalike And Miley Cyrus’s Biggest Fan

Miley Cyrus went through a bit of a rebellious phase but now that she’s past the tongue-pulling, twerking, and outrageous outfits, it’s easy to see just how much she resembles her mother, Tish Cyrus. And she’s a lucky girl because she has a lot to look forward to when she gets older because Tish is a beautiful woman.

For those who don’t know who Tish is, she’s married to the country music star, Billy Ray Cyrus, but she's successful in her own right. She’s a producer, with one of the films that she was responsible for being the 2010 movie, The Last Song, which starred Miley and Liam Hemsworth.

Apart from looking alike, these two are also very close and Tish is her daughter's biggest fan. She told E! News in 2017, "I think Miley is so real and every stage you see her in is truly the stage of her life that she's in. She's in such a great place, so happy, and I think the music really reflects that."

Goldie Hawn And Kate Hudson Have A Super Close Bond

The hair, the nose, the mouth… Kate Hudson is literally a carbon copy of her famous mother, Goldie Hawn.

There are few bonds as beautiful as that between a mother and her child, and Hawn and Hudson (whose father is Bill Hudson) are extremely close. According to People, during a 2017 interview with Giuliana Rancic on E! Live, Hawn commented on her relationship with her daughter and what she’s learned from her over the years, especially now that her own daughter is a mother. She said, “Kate has taught me a lot. She is in many ways tougher than I was with the kids. I think I wanted everyone to be happy all the time. At the same time, she is extremely truthful. I think it’s vitally important to take the truth as much as you don’t want it.”

Kris Jenner And Kourtney Kardashian Aren’t Similar In Personality, But They Are In Appearance

Kris Jenner is one of the most famous, if not the most famous, momager in the entertainment industry and she has gone to great lengths to further the careers of her children. And, whether you like Kris Jenner or not, you have to admit that she’s a seriously good-looking woman, and luckily for her children, they inherited her good genes.

Jenner's favorite child is probably Kim Kardashian, but the daughter she resembles the most is Kourtney Kardashian, although they are not the most alike in personality. Kourtney is the oldest of the Kardashian-Jenner clan and was born on April. 18, 1979, to her mother, Kris, and the late, Robert Kardashian.

These two women have a similar style and have been spotted on a few occasions looking matchy-matchy, they also have the same dark locks and mouth. Yep, it’s a lot more than just a first name starting with a “K” that these two shares.

Heather Locklear’s Only Child, Ava Sambora, Is A Real Looker

Ava Sambora is all grown up and the 20-year-old model is making a name for herself as something other than Heather Locklear and musician, Richie Sambora’s, daughter. Still, she will forever be her mother’s twin, and in more ways than one, because it’s not just good genes that these two shares, but a love for the entertainment industry.

In 2012, Sambora made her film debut in This Is 40, something she has wanted to do since she was a kid. In a 2013 interview with Teen Vogue, she said, "Ever since I was five or six, I've wanted to be an actress. I loved attention and would always try to be onstage and in front of people. It was easy to figure out what I wanted to be."

Sambora is Locklear’s only child and growing up she used to accompany her mother on set, which made her want to become an actress even more.

Demi Moore And Rumer Willis Are Twinning

Rumer Willis is the oldest of Bruce Willis and Demi Moore’s three daughters (her younger siblings are Scout and Tallulah) and in recent years, she has started to look more and more like her famous mom. Actually, it’s a little creepy just how similar this mom-and-daughter duo are, as this photo, which the 29-year-old star (she was born on Aug. 16, 1988) posted to Instagram, shows.

Rumer and Moore could be twins (honestly, I had to do a double take), not that that's something that Rumer has a problem, with because she captioned the picture with, “That moment when you realize you actually are becoming your mother #twinning #imnotmad.”

Like her famous parents, Rumer also works in the entertainment industry and her roles include, The House Bunny, Sorority Row, and Hostage.

Vanessa Paradis’ Daughter Lily-Rose Depp Is Following In Her Footsteps

Lily-Rose Depp was not only born into fame and fortune, having two successful and well-known celebs as her parents, she was also blessed with good genes, which is not surprising since her father is Johnny Depp and her mother is the French model/actress, Vanessa Paradis.

Lily-Rose is just 18 years old but has already made a name for herself in the fashion world. She has starred in multiple campaigns for Chanel (for which she serves as an ambassador) and has graced the cover of some of the top fashion magazines. She’s also dabbled in the film industry with her credits including Yoga Hosers and The Dancer, but this was a career path she chose for herself because Paradis worked hard to keep her kids shielded from the public eye.

Katie Holmes' Baby Girl Suri Cruise Looks More Like Her Every Year

The genes are really strong between Katie Holmes and her daughter, Suri Cruise! When Suri was younger, she looked a lot like her famous father, Tom Cruise, but now that she's growing up, she has started to become her mother’s clone.

Apart from looking alike, the pair is also incredibly close and are often spotted in public together. Suri is Holmes only child, and motherhood has impacted her life greatly. In 2017, Holmes’ told Town & Country (via People) magazine, “My child is the most important person to me, and her upbringing is paramount to my work right now.” She added, “It’s very important that I’m present and she has a stable, innocent childhood. I feel so blessed to do what I do, but there’s nothing in the world better than watching your child succeed."

Sharon Osbourne And Kelly Osbourne Are Mother-Daughter Goals

Crazy hair colors aside, there’s no denying whose daughter Kelly Osbourne is! Kelly and Sharon Osbourne are incredibly close and have collaborated multiple times, including a 2014 MAC makeup collection. That said, Sharon has no intention of being her daughter’s best friend and heading to nightclubs with her.

According to Belfast Telegraph, she previously said, "I can't relate to mothers that are their kids' best friends. I cannot relate to that. I see mothers now that go out and socialize with their kids... I mean really socialize..."

The very big difference between Sharon’s relationship with her own daughter, and her relationship with her late mother, Hope Arden, is that they like each other, whereas Sharon and Arden never did. She even once said that although they had an underlying love, there was no friendship between her and Arden, and they didn’t like each other.

Lisa Bonet And Zoë Kravitz Are Two Seriously Beautiful Humans

Lisa Bonet and Zoë Kravitz are easily two of the most beautiful humans on the planet, inside and out, and they are strikingly similar. Not only do they wear their hair in similar styles, but they also have the same cheekbones (cheekbones that every woman in the world wants)!

Actually, they are so similar that if Bonet ever needs someone to star in a film as a younger role of herself, she knows where to find the perfect candidate. Looks aside, Bonet's journey into motherhood was a beautiful one and according to MotherMag, during a 1999 interview with Honey Magazine, she commented on how her daughter (the oldest of her three children, and her only child with Lenny Kravitz) changed her life. She said, “Having Zoë saved my life. It was my wake up call [about growing up]. There were so many things I didn’t want to pass on to her, so I really made a decision to change [into a better person].”

Susan Sarandon And Eva Amurri Martino Have The Same Face

There is nothing better than having someone who loves you unconditionally and is willing to support you, no matter what, and that’s really what a mother does. Susan Sarandon and Eva Amurri Martino are always willing to support each other, without overstepping the boundaries. When asked by Elle if she would give advice to her daughter on motherhood, Sarandon said “Absolutely not,” unless she asked for it. But in addition to their great relationship, these two basically look like the same person (those cheeks, the nose, the eyebrows, the lips...everything)!

That’s not all Amurri Martino inherited from her mother. Aside from being very good looking, she is also creative and has followed in her mother’s footsteps in the entertainment industry. Some of her acting credits include Californication and Saved!, but she has also starred in the same film as her mother, including The Banger Sisters, Middle of Nowhere, and Mothers and Daughters.

Gwyneth Paltrow’s Apple (Martin) Doesn’t Fall Far From The Tree

When you look at this picture, there is no mistaking that Apple Martin is the daughter of Gwyneth Paltrow, even though she’s also a good mix of her father, Chris Martin. Aside from their blonde hair, they also share the same nose and eyes, and Apple is growing into a beautiful, young lady.

Born on May. 14, 2004, Apple is the oldest of the couple’s two children, and her mother grows more proud of her with every passing year. In tribute to Apple on her 13th birthday, Paltrow let her feelings be known when she shared a photo of her baby girl, along with a heart-warming caption. She wrote, “Happy 13th birthday you gorgeous human. You light up every room, my heart, the world. You. Are. Everything. I love you, schnapps.”
