# Look-alike contests have become a popular autumn trend, with competitions worldwide celebrating celebrity doppelgangers.

These events offer a fun, lighthearted atmosphere while giving people the chance to showcase their resemblance to Hollywood’s biggest stars.

The search for a Zayn Malik look-alike in Brooklyn didn’t go quite as planned, as the event sparked debate online. Social media users were divided over the winner, with some questioning the contestants’ resemblance to the former One Direction star.

One Reddit user even asked, **“Are the lookalikes here with us right now?”** while another remarked, **“The judges need to have a word, because what?”** Notably, a lesbian contestant finished as the runner-up, adding to the online chatter.

While debates continued online, Selin Ceren, the lesbian runner-up, proved that success in look-alike contests isn’t limited to straight men. Ahead of the vote, Ceren told the crowd, **“I think you should vote for me because these lookalike contests are very male-dominated.”**

Ceren, who describes herself as the “resident lesbian heartthrob of NYC,” seemed thrilled with her second-place finish. She shared her excitement on X/Twitter, writing, **“More people in my DMs congratulating me for placing in a Zayn Malik lookalike contest than when I got my master’s degree.”**
