Are Community's Annie and Glee's Rachel Separated at Birth?
They look alike, kinda sound alike -- minus the singing voices -- and play characters with the same intense personality traits. So why wouldn't Community star Alison Brie Glee's Lea Michele shop at the same store? Or at least the same wardrobe department. Twice this past season, Brie's Annie and Michele's Rachel were caught wearing the same argyle sweaters on their respective television shows. Weird! Considering the volume of fan fiction Brie likely inspired when came out as a "Queen of Copulation," this quasi-pairing with Michele will probably be a fruitful one for fans of television character-based erotica. Photographic evidence of the sweaters after the jump.
For the record, Brie looks better in the grey sweater, but Michele looks better in the red one. So, draw. How many episodes will it take Community creator Dan Harmon to make some meta reference to this next season? Less than 3?

All I could think of is both ladies have two first names as their names.
Sorry Lea look better in both sweaters, but to each their own.
Lea may look better, but Alison will probably do anything and everything you could imagine in the bedroom ...
What's the classic line from Mick Jagger's old flame Jerry Hall?
“My mother said it was simple to keep a man, you must be a maid in the living room, a cook in the kitchen and a whore in the bedroom. I said I'd hire the other two and take care of the bedroom bit.”
Then there's what I'd add in response ... "I can do without the other two as long as she's taking care of the bedroom bit."
alison brie hands down
their clothes are the only thing that looks alike.
If Lea Michele was separated at birth from someone, was from Paget Brewster (Emily Prentiss from Criminal Minds).

I actually prefer Alison in the red and Lea in the gray.
One of these comments is killing me, but I will not turn this into a pointless argument. Thanks for the good post.
How do we know this isn't already a meta reference to the similarities between the two? I mean Community has taken on Glee directly and indirectly in several episodes (Modern Warfare and Jeff's breakdown after Professor Slater dumps him come to mind). If it is some subtle gag at the similarities between Annie and Rachel, it's hilarious, and I definitely wouldn't put it past Community.
This has to do with the glee and community sets being right next to each other.
Weird! They both look great!
