Selena Gomez seriously has a twin and we can't tell who's who

Our heads are spinning.

What a dream it is to be a celebrity doppelgänger, but alas, that privilege is only given to a lucky few.

And even half of these people only kind of look like a celeb! If you close one eye and tilt your head to the left, you might see the resemblance, but it's definitely a stretch.

But, we can say, without a shadow of a doubt that this girl is probably, definitely, maybe Selena Gomez's twin and there's no question about it.

Uh...HELLO. This goes completely beyond doppelgänger status.

22-year-old Sofia Solares from Mexico is Selena Gomez's long-lost sister, and the resemblance is truly freaking us out a little. Even the way she takes an Insta selfie is straight out of Selena's playbook.

Who is who???

Solares, who has over 240,000 followers on Instagram, told E! News that she is a huge fan of the Fetish singer and would love the chance to even get a small message from her twin sister.

"I love Selena Gomez and I declare myself a fan of hers and of course it would be a dream to know that she is aware of my existence," Sofia said. "If she were to take a few minutes to write something to me—I would cry of happiness!"

Although Selena hasn't gotten in touch with Solares as of yet, they're bound to cross paths by some cosmic force pulling these two clones toward each other. Solares has always gotten this comparison, but stays true to herself and remembers not lose who she is, no matter what her likeness is up to.

"Honestly, with time I've already gotten used to people saying, ‘You look like Selena Gomez,' wherever I've been...It's not something that I dislike, but I like it better when they love me for being myself," she explained. "There are occasions where she can put something on or change her look etc. and when I like something I wear it or I'll do it because it truly inspires me, but I always try to stay true to myself. I mean, it's great that I look like her, but I don't want to lose myself trying to be someone that I'm not!" 

Selena, you have a sister you didn't know about! Find her and post the most incredible, gorgeous Instagram pic together.
