Talk about a Legend-ary reveal!
John Legend got quite the surprise on The Voice's Oct. 2 episode when he turned his chair for contestant Talakai during the blind auditions.
The "All of Me" singer was the first coach to hit his buzzer during the Sacramento native's soulful performance of Sam Smith's "Stay With Me. But when the Oscar winner first laid eyes on Talakai, he immediately noticed a striking resemblance.
"Wait until you see his face," Legend warned Gwen Stefani and Niall Horan as their chairs turned following the rendition. "I'm looking at myself! Like, a taller, more handsome version of myself."
Stefani reacted with, "That's crazy!" as Talakai shouted to Legend from the stage, "What's up, twin?!"
The "Ordinary People" singer couldn't help but address his doppelgänger's shockingly similar appearance.
"You know, on the internet a lot of times people send me pictures of people that they think look like me and most of the time I'm like, 'Not really,'" he said. "And then I turn around and look at you. We have the same haircut. He really, legitimately looks like me."
For Talakai, his resemblance to Legend has been a lifelong joke. "Every day at work, I get it," he noted. "In school, they used to sing 'Ordinary People' down the hallway all the time."
Even Reba McEntire, the only other coach who ended up vying for Talakai to join their team, couldn't deny their natural connection.
"I absolutely loved your voice and your range," she told him. "I know I don't have a chance against John. I just wanted to come out and watch ya. I'm already a huge fan so welcome to The Voice."
Unsurprisingly, Talakai joined Team Legend. See the shocking reveal in the clip above.
The Voice airs Mondays and Tuesdays at 8 p.m. on NBC.

McKenna Grace & Kiernan Shipka
You're not going mad(men): The 17-year-old Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire actress looks even more like the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina star now than when she played a younger Sabrina on the Netflix series!
Writer Jamie Jirak tweeted a collage of younger-version characters Grace played, including a young Shipka/Sabrina, in 2020 and wrote, "I think about this a lot."
Grace quote-retweeted with a crying-laughing emoji, "Same."
Jared Leto & Scott Disick
In a November 2023 Sirius XM interview, Leto was asked his thoughts on being compared to the Kardashians star, to which he said, "Really? Lucky me," and after a pause, added, "Thank you."
He also noted that if they were actually related, "Then I would have a rich relative. Because he's very wealthy, right? Yeah, that would be nice."
Amy Adams & Isla Fisher
The Nocturnal Animals costars are aware of the comparison. In 2016, Fisher said on NBC's Today show that she once pasted Adams' face over hers for her family's holiday card.
Margot Robbie & Emma Mackey
It was no coincidence the actresses were both cast in Barbie.
"I've been getting told for years that I look like the girl from Sex Education, who is Emma Mackey," Robbie told BuzzFeed in a July video. "She plays one of the Barbies in the movie pretty much because [director] Greta [Gerwig] and I thought it would be funny. We were gonna do like this whole joke about us looking similar."
She continued, "Then once we got all dressed up as our Barbies, we were kind of like, 'We don't actually look that similar.'' When she's got her brown hair and I've got my blonde hair, we don't look that similar. So we didn't put that joke in the movie. But when people come up and say, 'I loved you in Sex Education,' I just say, 'Thank you. Thank you so much.'"
Margot Robbie & Jaime Pressly
"The celebrity I am mistaken for is Margot Robbie," the My Name Is Earl actress told Us Weekly in 2022. "It happens all the time."
Jessica Chastain & Bryce Dallas Howard
The Help co-stars look so alike that director Ron Howard mistook Chastain for his own daughter.
At an Apple Store, "I was, like, walking by, I was like, 'Oh, that's Ron Howard,'" Chastain recalled. "And then my friend was with me (and) said he turned to someone, he goes, 'I think I just saw Bryce.' We look so much alike."
Bryce confirmed that the story was "legit" in an interview with Entertainment Tonight, saying her dad "was, like, shook. He really was."
"At first he was like, 'You really look so much alike,' " she said. "And I mean, obviously, I'm incredibly flattered, so it's great."
Reese Witherspoon & Carrie Underwood
Neither celeb was upset when a social media user thought Witherspoon was Underwood.
"To the woman in the parking lot who just asked me if I was Carrie Underwood," the Legally Blonde star tweeted, "You officially made my day."
The Grammy winner quickly responded, "YOUR day?!?!?!?! That lady just made my whole life!"
Mark Ruffalo & Noah Centineo
"He's way better-looking than I was," Ruffalo said on the Tonight Show in March 2019. "Are you kidding me? I wish I looked like that, I swear to God."
Daniel Radcliffe & Elijah Wood
Harry Potter and Frodo are well aware fans confuse them.
"Though we are both short, pale, blue-eyed and brown-haired, I would say we don't actually look alike," Radcliffe said in a joint interview with Empire magazine. "But the idea of us is exactly the same."
In fact, while in Japan, Radcliffe was even asked to autograph a photo of Wood.
"So the quickest way to deal with it was to just write, 'I am not Elijah Wood, signed Daniel Radcliffe,'" he explained, "and then hope someone translated that for him later."
Sharna Burgess & Gal Gadot
The former Dancing With the Stars pro looks like Wonder Woman herself.
Leighton Meester and Minka Kelly
The Gossip Girl and Friday Night Lights actresses look so similar that they were cast as the leads in 2011's The Roommate, a Single White Female-esque horror flick.
Zach Galifianakis & Nick Offerman
The bearded stars look they may have been separated at birth.

The actresses look like they were separated at birth.

Kristen Stewart & Jena Malone
The Twilight star and Hunger Games alum share dark locks and glowing skin.
Seth Meyers & Nat Faxon
The Saturday Night Live alum and Oscar-winner could be confused as cousins, at the least.
Chelsea Handler & Elizabeth Banks
These two get mistaken for each other all the time. Just ask them.
"When we were at the White House Correspondents' dinner," the comedian said when Banks stopped by Chelsea Lately. "Bill O'Reilly was talking to me and I said, 'I think you're confusing me with Elizabeth Banks,' because I wanted to get the f--k away from him."
Aaron Paul & Tom Felton
Whether it's magic or just coincidence, the Breaking Bad star looks a lot like the Harry Potter actor.
Ke$ha & Blake Lively
We'd believe it if the singer and Gossip Girl star revealed they were long-lost relatives.
Javier Bardem & Jeffrey Dean Morgan
These actors certainly both have a similar sense of style.
Zooey Deschanel & Katy Perry
The New Girl actress has been mistaken for the singer, who even played into their resemblance. In her "Not the End of the World" music video, Deschanel accidentally gets abducted by aliens who mistake her for the American Idol judge.

"Dude! You don't understand, I get this every single day," Justice told MTV News of her resemblance to The Vampire Diaries star. "Everyone always confuses me for her."
