Unless he’s the one on the left this headline is a real stretch. https://t.co/fVFADZAFn5

So, given the headline, that’s him on the left? https://t.co/LYDmIY1RH5

Absolutely. I don’t even believe he’s in this photo at all. https://t.co/qXCQjnnwgv

He’s unrecognizable because he’s wearing a custom fitted black wig and his face was polished with Toddler tears. Secrets of the trade. Welcome to Hollywood! https://t.co/zmR2aGKoH7
