Having won the gene pool jackpot, the daughters of Hollywood celebrities are often just are gorgeous as their famous parents. However, certain mother-daughter duos are spitting images of one another, leaving no doubt in our minds where the younger lookalikes got their striking features. We found some mother-daughter duos who put a whole new spin on the word “doppelgänger,” and they are seriously twinning.
The one thing we love more than looking at pictures of celebrities? Looking at pictures of their kids! Who knows why, but looking at pictures of celebrity kiddos is just the best — though perhaps that’s because we love seeing how much they do or don’t look like their parents! From Reese Witherspoon and Ava, to Gwyneth Paltrow and Apple , to Madonna and Lourdes, sometimes the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree — especially when it comes to looking like their mama bears. And we found the pictures to prove it.
Here are 24 pairs of famous moms and daughters who define the #twinning hashtag. These look-alikes are so close that it’s almost hard to tell who’s who (not really, the kids are the small ones).
Katie Holmes & Suri Cruise
Suri Cruise may have once had the Internet divided as to whether she looks like her mom, Katie Holmes, or her dad, Tom Cruise — but these days she is definitely looking like her mama’s twin. Not only do they look alike, but they basically define #MomDaughterGoals .
Gwyneth Paltrow & Apple Martin
Sure, Apple Martin has some features like dad, Coldplay frontman Chris Martin — but there is no denying that she’s Gwyneth Paltrow’s daughter . (Just take a look at old photos of Gwynie!)
Jessica Simpson & Maxwell Johnson
Maxwell Drew seems to love mimicking her mama’s poses  (and, no, there’s nothing wrong with that!). But even without the same stance, adorable Max would look exactly like Jessica Simpson.
Reese Witherspoon & Ava Phillippe
Ava Phillippe could easily step into mom Reese Witherspoon’s shoes if they ever make a third Legally Blonde sequel. (That actually sounds like a great idea!)
Julianne Moore & Liv Freundlich

Curls abound when Salma Hayek and her mini-me daughter, Valentina Pinault, enter a room. “In my family, everyone is very confident, graceful, and light. Valentina and I are the ones who panic on stage,” Salma has said . “But she gets in front of the camera with no problem!”
Jenna Bush Hager & Mila Hager
Even here, at 2 years old, those famous Bush genes were apparent in Jenna Bush Hager’s daughter Mila Hager.

Get a load of those dimples! Jennifer Garner and daughter Violet Affleck share the same megawatt Hollywood smile. And we love that Jen loves smiling with her kids. “You can’t buy parenting.

Some think that Matilda Ledger takes after her late father, Heath Ledger, more than mom Michelle Williams, but with their matching haircuts, there’s definitely a strong maternal resemblance in this photo.
Kelly Ripa & Lola Consuelos
When you’re as photogenic as Kelly Ripa and Lola Consuelos are, every day calls for a mommy-daughter selfie. This day, though, happened to be Lola’s fourteenth birthday.
