The other day, we had Minka Kelly’s GQ interview to promote her role in The Roommate, the re-imagining of Single White Female set in college, with Leighton Meester in the psychotic Jennifer Jason Leigh role. The Roommate looks… wonderfully awful, like a girl fight cheesefest that will deliver hilarious and ridiculous lines for years to come. Anyway, The Roommate gets a wide release next week, so the premieres and screenings have already begun. Last night there was a screening in West Hollywood, and both Leighton and Minka showed up in their best “LOOK AT ME” dresses.
Leighton is wearing Michael Kors – and yes, that is a leather halter-belly top thing, which I don’t get. How is the whole belly-baring (even in cutouts) thing still a fashion statement? Ugh. I don’t know who Minka is wearing, but I like it better than Leighton’s dress. Minka’s dress just seems like a better “attending a screening” dress.
Also: Now that they’re standing side-by-side on a red carpet, it’s much easier to tell them apart. Last thing: is Minka giving anyone else a major Jennifer Beals vibe? I never saw that before, but Minka looks a lot like Beals.

Leighton!!! Minka Kelly dates Derek Jeeter. So that makes her gross in my book.

They are both gorgeous and give the casting person for the movie a raise cause they do look alike.

Minka looks sexy, Leighton looks cute. You can see the dif in age and sophistication.

Leighton hardly looks like herself with that particular eye makeup. Minka’s makeup is gorgous, tho!

I always used to confuse them with each other. Well the casting was good. I think they both look great but minka is more event appropriate than leighton. Its a screening not a premiere right? Leighton is trying too hard wearing that to a screening even though I do like the dress. I think the cutouts and leather work

Have Leighton Meester’s eyebrows always looked like that?

Minka looks like a sexier, livelier and stand out than Leighton who fades into the background with v little obvious charisma…

That is the most ill-fitting white dress I have ever seen. And Minka’s hair and make-up are terrible. I’ve seen her look great, but this look is an epic fail.

Word to Leighton…half dark brown and half auburn hair does not look classy, it looks cheap. Go and get your hair colored so that it matches.

Leighton looks like she botoxed her forehead.

Leighton is prettier. Minka is sexier.

I am glad that I’m not the only one who couldn’t keep these two straight. They look so much alike! They’re both very pretty.

Leighton is cute. Minka is gorgeous.

Don’t like a lot of what Leighton’s stylist has been doing with her lately. Also don’t like what Leighton’s make up artist is doing with her eyes lately.
This isn’t Minka’s best look but at least she doesn’t look like she’s trying too hard.

I’m so old. I have no idea who either one of these girls is. Pretty girls, though.

Both girls are gorgeous, but I don’t love Leighton’s makeup at all. Her makeup artist did her a disservice. Leighton’s dress is kind of strange, but she’s kind of out there with fashion anyway, so I don’t hate it. It’s weird, but not ugly. I’ve seen Minka look better, but she looks very pretty here.

They are both cute. They look like sisters.

I had to look at that trailer so many times to see that it wasn’t the same person playing both parts..yeah, seriously.
I could not tell the difference between the two. They both look great.

I vote for Minka! But they are both really pretty.

Leighton looks miles better – it’s fashion forward and it’s flattering. Minka looks like a fairy-floss hot mess.

Both girls are stunning, but I have to say, I think Minka just has that something extra special.

Leighton Meester is hilarious. Great comic timing, the only reason to watch Gossip Girl, so I’ll see the movie for her.

i’ve known leighton since she was 14 and she has always had the worst fashion sense. for once i can honestly say she looks good.
