Leo DiCaprio's doppelgänger is now a Ralph Lauren model
It's hard to believe the beauty of Leonardo DiCaprio could exist in more than one person. But when people stumbled upon Swedish musician Konrad Annerud last fall, they realized life had blessed the world with not one, but two Leo-like physiques.
Now, the DiCaprio doppelgänger has landed his first big modeling job in a Barneys New York lookbook.
Annerud, who began gaining social media fame for his resemblance to DiCaprio, modeled the Ralph Lauren Spring/Summer 2016 collection in the lookbook. He scored the gig through — you guess it — Instagram.

And he doesn't really mind being labeled as a doppelgänger. Though he once referred to the lookalike situation as "tiresome," now, as far as he's concerned, he's the one coming out on top.
“Even if all people talk about is the fact that I’m a look-alike, fuck those guys, I’m here in NYC modeling,” Annerud told Barneys.
It's not like we can hold that mindset against him. The 21-year-old is kind of living the dream.
Though modeling is undoubtedly a good way to bring in some cash, his priorities rest in the music industry. Annerud told New York Daily News his focus is on developing his musical talents.
The aspiring singer said he hopes to one day be compared to Michael Jackson; he released an EP in 2015.
We wish you look, Annerud. In the meantime, keep blessing us with those killer Instagrams. We just can't get enough.
