Jennifer Lopez, Jennifer Garner, Gwyneth Paltrow and Reese Witherspoon all have something in common: Mini-me kids

Stars often have children that end up looking just like them.

These 'nepo babies' are called 'mini-me kids' or 'look-alikes' and they have taken the spotlight in recent years as they rule red carpets and land fashion campaigns.

Think of Gwyneth Paltrow and her daughter Apple Martin, 20, whom she had with ex-husband Chris Martin of Coldplay.

Reese Witherspoon's daughter Ava Phillippe, 24, is almost a carbon copy of her famous mom; dad is ex Ryan Phillippe.

Jennifer Lopez has her mini-me with Emme Muniz, 16, whom she shares with ex-husband Marc Anthony while Jennifer Garner has a look-alike with daughter Violet, 18, whose dad is Ben Affleck, who is JLo's ex. 

Then there is Vogue supermodel Cindy Crawford and her youngest child Kaia Gerber, 22, whom she had with husband Rande Gerber. Kaia has already been working as a supermodel for years.

DailyMail.com looks at some of the more famous mini-me kids that are rising up in the Tinseltown ranks...

GWYNETH PALTROW AND APPLE MARTIN

Gwyneth Paltrow and daughter Apple Martin, whose father is Coldplay rocker Chris Martin, in May

Gwyneth Paltrow had some very kind things to say about her 20-year-old daughter Apple Martin, whose father is Coldplay rocker Chris Martin, in May.

The 51-year-old Oscar-winning actress told E! News that the teen influences her.  'Apple is an adult woman now, so we relate to each other like that,' said the actress.

'Of course, I'm always her mama, and she comes to me for those things too. But it's very interesting to really watch her step into herself as a grown woman.'

And Apple helps with GOOP. 'She influences everything I do,' Gwyneth shared.

'I run everything by her. I value her opinion so much, and she's also such a product person—especially with makeup, much more so than I am. 

'I'm very minimal. So as we go more into color, she's the person I rely on the most.'

'Apple is an adult woman now, so we relate to each other like that,' said the actress

The teen has inherited her mom's passion for wellness.

'In this case, the apple really doesn't fall far from the tree,' the Shakespeare in Love star noted. 

'My daughter has gotten so into clean, non-toxic beauty, vegan. She doesn't want to touch anything that's cruel to animals. 

'So, she has really strong values running. It's so nice that it aligns with the products that we already make.'

And it looks like Moses has, too.

'He really cares,' she added. 'It's amazing. He knows all about ingredients. Like if I ever hand him something, he looks at the ingredients panel and he's like, "Oh wow, this has niacinamide in it."

'I'm like, "Wow, how do you know all this stuff?" He's very learned in the in the realm of skin care.'

She also talked her kids' future.

'Whatever they want to do in life, I want to support,' she noted.

'I think there are challenges in any career—certainly there are challenges in being an artist, for sure. 'But should they choose that path, I will of course support them.'

'But it's very interesting to really watch her step into herself as a grown woman,' said Paltrow; seen here visiting Apple in Nashville near her college

Last year Gwyneth told People that Apple is a lot of fun to hang out with and she is grateful the college student is in her life.

'I mean, she's just so much fun to be with,' the cover girl shared.

'It's so wonderful having a daughter because you have this amazing best friend and we like to do the same stuff, and she's so funny and she's so smart. It's amazing.'

And she also looks up to her mini-me, who has already worked as a sales girl in a Los Angeles shop. 

'I'm kind of in awe of this woman that she's become and with all of her points of view that are really differentiated. She's really strong and it's amazing,' shared the wife of TV producer Brad Falchuk, 52.

The icon added: 'I'm very minimal. So as we go more into color, she's the person I rely on the most' 

'My children are similar in the ways that they're both incredibly sensitive and empathetic. They really can feel people's stuff very permeable in that way,' said the Emma actress.

'They're both tall and they both have very interesting ways of seeing the world, and they're different in the ways that they are. 

'My daughter's very much of an extrovert. My son is an introvert. They like to do very different things, but then I don't know, then they both love to snowboard and they both love music, and they love their friends.'

But Apple is more like her father. 'I think Moses and I are more, we're happy kind of being home and being more internal.

'But I think they've both gotten, hopefully, the best of both of us, and hopefully we've been able to minimize our s***** traits having passed those down,' she continued.

And both Apple and Moses are interested in fashion.

Her little ones: She also has son Moses

'They're actually both very intrigued by fashion and into fashion,' Paltrow said. 'They are both very intrigued. They both really like fashion as an art form and as a form of expression. It's really interesting to see them both choose that. My son, really it's kind of how he tells the world who he is through his cool style.'

And she has stolen from Apple's closet: 'More random stuff, like a tank top or something like that. She's more going through my closet for special event stuff.'

And she also said in the same People interview that Martin is a great father.

'He has this sweet child-like spirit, and I love that he will be like, 'Let's go jump in the ocean,' when it's 58 degrees, or, 'Let's go to this weird guitar store.' He always wants to do these fun adventures with them and activities.'

The blonde told the magazine that dealing with her blended family with second husband of five years, TV producer Brad Falchuk, is not a walk in the park.

While the Iron Man actress has Apple and Moses, Brad has two with his ex-wife, Suzanne Bukinik whom he was wed to from 1994 to 2013: Isabella, 19, and Brody, 17.

 REESE WITHERSPOON AND AVA PHILLIPPE

Reese Witherspoon proves she has a very close bond with her mini-me daughter Ava as they joke around during a cute video

Reese Witherspoon proved in June that she has a very close bond with her mini-me daughter Ava as they joke around during a cute video.

The duo tried filming various clips and shared a look at the behind-the-scenes moments of giggles that came along with the process. 

The words 'Why it takes 2 hours to shoot a 2 minute video,' popped onto the screen before the camera cut to Reese and Ava.

The 24-year-old, dressed in a pink cardigan and light wash jeans, directed the 48-year-old, who wore a collared shirt and blue jeans, to shove the book towards her.

Reese obliged and comically handed off the book in a sturdy manner.

The pair jokingly smiled at the camera before the clip cuts to Ava saying, 'I was actually ready for you to hurt me, so that's the look on my face!'

The ladies then head outside and sit at a picnic table holding cups of iced tea before Reese bursts into a fit of laughter. 

The Big Little Lies actress and Ava quickly recover and clink their glasses. 

Next, they go off to the bathroom, wearing matching pink robes. 

Reese tries to hand her daughter a skincare product but the model drops it, and the Legally Blonde star once again tries to hold back laughter.

The video ends with Reese and Ava outside as The Morning Show star hands off a bouquet of flowers.  

'What?' Ava asked as Reese laughed before the shot began.

The Your Place or Mine actress then pushes the flowers towards her eldest child.

'Want to give them back to me?' Reese inquired before Ava playfully shoved the flowers in her mom's face.  

The pair tried filming various clips and shared a look at the behind-the-scenes moments of giggles that came along with the process

'I try to take it from you and you are like "mm-hm!"' Ava exclaimed as the two got into a fake tussle with the flowers.

She added, 'The outtakes are going to be great.' 

Reese cheekily captioned the Wednesday Instagram video, 'Did we get the shot?!'

In April, Reese and Ava looked more alike than ever while posing for a picture at Tiffany & Co's launch of its Blue Book 2024: Tiffany Céleste collection in Los Angeles. 

Reese stunned in a strapless black dress, a massive diamond necklace, and a black clutch. 

Her blonde hair was done in loose waves as it flowed freely down her back.

Ava twinned with her mother, wearing a gray strapless gown with a gold chunky necklace similar to Reese's. 

Ava posted two shots from the night on Instagram, writing, 'Dinner with Tiffany's (& my gorgeous date!).' 

Back in 2017, Reese took a moment to gush over her firstborn.

'She's a beautiful person inside and out.' the Sweet Home Alabama star told Vanity Fair at the time. 'I'm not sure what she thinks. I'm just "Mom" to her.'

Adding about their bond, 'I really have a rich, personal relationship with my daughter. I have a really great career, and it's nice to be able to share it with my kids.'

Along with Ava, Reese is also mom to son Deacon, 20, with ex Ryan Philippe, and son Tennessee, 11, with ex Jim Toth. 

Reese has also reflected on the benefits of being a working mom throughout the years and what it will teach her kids.

In April, the mother-daughter duo looked more alike than ever while posing for a picture at Tiffany & Co's launch of its Blue Book 2024: Tiffany Céleste collection in Los Angeles

'My mom worked, and I think it’s good for kids to see women working and being successful,' she told InStyle in 2020. 'I think it’s going to make them hard workers because they see that I don’t get much sleep.'

But being in the workforce and raising a family comes with its challenges. 

'I’m just trying to hold on, trying to make it through,' Reese continued. 'My older kids help with the little one. It’s nice to have a big family.'

As for what the producer wishes for her kids? 'I want them to grow up with passion,' Reese stated. 'This is the one life you get, and you have to live it to the very end.'

Jennifer Garner has a mini-me daughter in Violet Affleck, 18, whom she shares with ex-husband Ben Affleck.

In June she said she spent weeks constantly weeping uncontrollably as she prepared for her daughter Violet to graduate from high school.

The Elektra actress, 52, was seen in a series of photos of the teen's graduation ceremony crying in an auditorium.

And she admitted she spent weeks bursting into tears at the prospect of the event. She told Hoda Kotb and Sheinelle Jones on Today with Hoda and Jenna: 'I was a wreck the whole month leading up to it.

'Every awards ceremony, every final, everything, I just cried and cried at everything,' she said.

'Then, the day of (graduation) was so happy that there was nothing to be other than just so proud and happy.'

Jennifer appeared on the show alongside her mother Patricia 'Pat' Ann Garner, who said she was also an emotional wreck when her three daughters left home.

She added: 'Oh, graduation was fine, but when they went to college, that's another thing, and when Jennifer went, I just howled.'

Pat added she was hit by the feeling Jennifer would 'never come home again'

Jennifer and Ben also co-parent children Seraphina, 15, and Samuel, 12, and threw Violet a graduation party in Los Angeles in May.

Jennifer shared a series of images on social media showing herself weeping at Violet's graduation along with a message about how she was struggling not to be overwhelmed at the event.

She said on Instagram she didn't know how she's 'gonna make it' after seeing Violet mark the milestone.

Jennifer added: 'Tell me you have a graduate without telling me you have a graduate. (Mortarboard emoji) bless our hearts (amazed face, red heart and crying with laughter emojis.)'

Jennifer's first two photos of the set at Violet's graduation showed her tearfully clapping, and she asked fans what she was 'gonna do' and how she would 'make it' – before adding an image of herself in oversized '2024' sunglasses.

Her post prompted a flood of posts in the comments section from her famous friends and fans.

Actress Reese Witherspoon, 48, told her: 'Oh honey… I know. (Crying face and red heart emojis.)

ALESSANDRA AMBROSIO AND ANJA MAZUR

Alessandra Ambrosio's mini-me daughter Anja shared several  images to Instagram during their spring break in Kaua'i, Hawaii in March.

Anja has already been working as a model for Burberry and Vogue, and looks to have a promising career in front of her.

Anja's father is photographer and designer Jamie Mazur, who is not seen often on social media.

Alessandra and Jamie split in 2018. 

Anja - full name Anja Louise Ambrosio Mazur - is one of two children from the model and Mazur as Anja also has a 10-year-old brother named Noah Phoenix.

The Brazilian bombshell said in her Instagram caption: 'On the beach in Hawaii ☀️.' She played Ziggy Marley's Beach In Hawaii.

Alessandra is known for posing in her own brand, GAL Floripa, which has been making swimwear for years. 

In late August 2023, Anja turned 15-years-old.

The cute teen shared several images to Instagram from her big birthday party.

Anja responded by adding red heart emojis.

Anja is a teenager going to high school in Los Angeles, but lately she has fired up her Instagram page with images from her travels with mom.

This summer they have been on a fun beach vacation with friends like in Ibiza, Spain. 

Anja and her mom Alessandra also posed together often, which highlights their similarities.

In July the ladies looked like carbon copies of each other as they had the same high cheekbones and almond eyes as well as light brown hair as they posed side by side for a selfie.

CINDY CRAWFORD AND KAIA GERBER

Cindy Crawford shared with InStyle magazine last year that her model daughter Kaia Gerber  copies her looks.

She said specifically she 'stole' her lush locks. And the Vogue cover girl added she 'wants them back.'

'I look at my daughter and notice that her hair is shiny and healthy looking — she has my old hair, and I want it back!' said Crawford.

Crawford - whose hair still looks cover girl fabulous - added that Gerber’s hair inspired her Age-Proof Hair Care System for her Meaningful Beauty line.

'That became my new passion for Meaningful Beauty — to address not only my aging hair but to bring a solution to the market for the many other women out there experiencing these aging hair issues. And we did it,' Crawford admitted.

'Everyone tells you your skin will age, but no one tells you your hair will age too,' Crawford shared with the fashion publication.

'I think we all expect to get gray hair, but I wasn't aware that the texture was going to change, it was going to become more brittle, it was going to shed more, and basically just be lackluster.'

Crawford also looked back.

'Well — I loved '90s hair — the bigger, the better. But all that back-combing wasn't necessarily kind to one's hair. 

'To this day, I still like a great blowout with a round brush and then Velcro rollers. It gives you some volume and soft, shiny waves — I call it the Madison Avenue blowout,' she explained.

Last week Cindy showed off her lustrous mane of hair in a sexy video on social media.

The supermodel looked much younger than her 56 years as she tousled her hair, while promoting her '#MBhairgoals' for her Meaningful Beauty line. 

'I look at my daughter and notice that her hair is shiny and healthy looking — she has my old hair, and I want it back!' said Crawford; seen in 2021

Cindy sat on a wooden box in a sexy pose as she bent forward and then flipped her brunette tresses away from her face. 

She wore daytime friendly makeup in the clip, with a natural pink lip. 

Fans posted adoring comments next to the video writing, 'Stunning beauty ❤️', and 'OMG! Just like in the 90s!'

Another commented on her natural beauty, imploring, 'You’ve always been cool and natural looking. Please never use fillers.' 

The savvy entrepreneur launched beauty company back in 2004 via an infomercial.

She explained her reason for getting into the product side of the beauty business, telling Women's Wear Daily, 'As a model, multiple times you get paid to represent a brand, but you don’t have skin in the game.'

The line, made of plant based products, has been popular with her fans ever since. 

She introduced hair care products in 2021, explaining, 'We expect our skin is going to age…and your hair, you know it’s going to go gray, but no one really talks about your hair aging.' 

'We might say we had a bad haircut, but I think it’s very vulnerable for women to talk about like, "Oh my god, my hair is thinning a little bit." I think women’s emotional attachment to hair and what it means, in a weird way it’s more emotional than skin.'

TERESA GIUDICE AND AUDRIANA

Teresa Giudice has a child who strongly resembles her.

The Real Housewives Of New Jersey star looks like 14-year-old daughter Audriana.

In 2021, the two posed side by side in a striking image where their similarities were on dislay.

Last week they were arm in arm while in Turkey with the family.

The TV siren has a total of four daughters - in addition to Audriana there is Gia, 23, Gabriella, 19, and Milania, 18, whom she has with ex-husband Joe Giudice.

Teresa was married to Giudice from 1999 until 2020.

The former couple were heavily featured on The Real Housewives Of New Jersey and share four daughters. 

In 2009, Joe and Teresa couple filed for bankruptcy, which set off a chain of legal battles culminating in the two being convicted for various forms of fraud.

Five years later, the two were handed prison sentences; Joe's status as an illegal immigrant was also brought into question, as he had never gained citizenship despite living in the United States since he was a year old.

At the end of his time being incarcerated, Joe went to live with his family in Italy to await the results of his deportation hearing and subsequent appeals.

The Giudices separated in December of 2019, months after Joe was released, and finalized their divorce in September. 

Teresa is now wed to Luis Ruelas.

She met Ruelas in July 2020 after divorcing Joe. 

The lovebirds only went public in November 2020. She also said Luis was 'the BEST thing that came out of 2020.'

And they wed in 2022.  

GILLIAN ANDERSON AND PIPER

X-Files actress Gillian Anderson has a daughter that looks very much like her.

She is Piper Maru Klotz.

Gillian's daughter is her only child from her first marriage to Canadian television art director Clyde Klotz. 

The duo were married for three years but separated in 1997 and she went on to marry filmmaker Julian Ozanne, which ended in 2006 after two years.

Gillian had two more children, Oscar, nine, and Felix, seven, with businessman Mark Griffiths but by 2012, the actress was single again.

Reports that she had found love again broke in October 2016 when The Daily Mail's Sebastian Shakespeare confirmed that she was telling friends about dating writer Peter.

Anderson who lives in London, was at a party in New York with 54-year-old Morgan to promote The Crown, where she was overheard telling friends they were in a relationship.

Peter, whose cinematic hits include The Queen and Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, was married to Lila Schwarzenberg - born Princess Anna Carolina zu Schwarzenberg - until 2014.

The pair have five children together, one of which glamorous daughter, Gioia Morgan, 18, joined Peter for the premiere, where his stars Matt Smith, Claire Foy and Vanessa Kirby also on the red carpet in Leicester Square.

Since the relationship revelation, Gillian supported Peter when The Crown went up for a nomination at The Golden Globes and her latest appearance is another subtle hint at their tryst.
