Everyone gets a little nervous meeting super famous people, even if they are just as famous. Oscar-nominated actress Saoirse Ronan stopped by The Tonight Show on Thursday (November 7) and revealed that when she finally met her famous doppelgänger this summer, she was completely blown away.
Fallon held up a photo of a post in which someone online noted that Ronan and singer Chappell Roan look a lot alike, adding that even Roan posted a video on TikTok in which the Irish actress' face morphs into “Pink Pony Club.” the strangely similar look of the singer.
“I do [see the resemblance] and the person who tipped me off was Chappell,” Ronan told Fallon. THE Blitz The actress said she became “obsessed” with Roan over the summer, “like everyone else” – along with fangirling with Charli XCX – and that it was at a Roan show that she had the chance to meet the singer. The star was backstage with co-star Brie Larson, whose boyfriend announced they were going to go and talk to Roan's parents.
“And we said, 'No! You have to play it cool,'” Ronan recalled telling the friend. “We can't let her know that we love her as much as we do. We have to be detached and cool.'” The person went anyway, only to discover that they were from the same town as the singer's family. Eventually, Ronan was asked to chat by Ronan, who told her, “Oh, everyone says we're the same.”
Fallon then held up a photo of the superstar summit, “proving you're different people.” Ronan said she gets it, assuring viewers at home: “We're in the same room. We both exist. But she's just incredible and I love how she talked about the crazy treatment that famous people get.”
Having done musical pieces in Tonight showFallon asked Ronan if she would ever sing a duet with her musical duo. “No, I wouldn't. I'm not good enough to sing with Chappell,” Ronan assured him. “I'd like to play the tambourine for her.”
