Who's YOUR celebrity body match? Take this test to find out if you have Gwyneth's waist, Kim's rear or Brad's chest...
Do
you have Jessica Alba’s lithe legs, Kim Kardashian’s bottom or Justin Bieber’s
arms?
Now, a new website
lets you find out exactly who your celebrity body double is.
Called Fitbay, it first asks
users to input details about gender, height and weight.
It also asks
questions about body shape, with a choice of apple, pear, straight, cone or
hourglass for women.
For men, the choice
is between oval, triangle, column, broad or muscular.
Users must also
choose whether they have short, regular or long torso as well as the length of
their arms.
The tool then comes
up with the top three celebrities across the world who best match that body
type.
A 5'7" (170cm)
woman weighing around 126 lbs (57kg) with a regular-length torso and
normal-length arms is a 100 per cent match with actress Jessica Alba
The developers have
gathered the body data of more than 350 international celebrities, but sadly,
if your body is so unique it has no famous twin, then the quiz informs you that
you have no celebrity matches.
The test was created
by Fitbay, a new site which allows people to create a profile and see others
with their body type.
They can also buy
products specifically suited to their size and shape.
A spokesperson for
Fitbay said: 'Fitbay is a new site that connects you with people who have a
similar body and style.
'Use the app to
capture your everyday outfits, tag brands you are wearing, and get fashion
inspiration that's right for you.
'With more than
200,000 users, Fitbay can match you with thousands of people like you around
the world to see what they’re wearing.'
