21 celebrities who might be time travellers...

Jay Z
Lookalike ... Jay-Z

SO, Jay-Z's secret is out - he's actually a time traveller from 1939.

Yesterday we told how staff at New York Public Library's Schomburg Center had found an image appearing to show the star alive and well in Harlem, back in the thirties.

The black and white image quickly went viral as the web questioned if Beyonce's fella was the new Marty McFly.

But he isn't the only famous face who has cropped up in the archives, as shown by the brilliant website tottallylookslike.com

Below are a long list of stars who have a lookalike from many moons ago...

Is that a skyscraper... or are you just pleased to see me?

Phallic buildings
Outstanding erections ... phallic buildings

CHINESE authorities recently tried to stop people searching for pictures of a new building, as it looks too much like a male member.

Sadly, their move only led to snaps of the official Communist party newspaper going viral and raising more than a few eyebrows around the world. 

But it isn’t the first phallic building to make people snigger on the web. 

Cocky architects have erected a number of risque skyscrapers all over the world, so here we take a look at some of the most exciting.
