Since most of her face is covered, would it no tbe better to say she copies other peoples eye make up?

She looks nothing like Cruz.

It kind of reminds me of Zoolander.

When's she going to come out with "Magnum"?

Penelope Cruz is one of the world's sexiest women. This girl looks like a typical waifish JHS girl + pancake makeup.

It looks like these days you can be famous for anything. Kardashians are famous for being famous. Can I become famous for being not famous? The worlds most famous not famous person?

I can look like a pirate when I wear an eyepatch or Groucho Marx if I wear the glasses/nose/moustache. I even look a bit like Charlie Sheen on Saturday morning with no make up or props after a Friday night bender. Can I get a job on the Telly?

Phenomenal. Now this is a skill which could only be marketed as a talent in japan.

"This is my impression of Penelope Cruz if you can't see her face and she doesn't say anything or do anything. Please take a photo from this angle only."

Kerching!
