Celebrities are constantly in the public eye. All aspects of their life are dragged into magazines, onto television screens and into newspapers.


There are very few secrets that celebs can harbour nowadays. With the invention of social media, less about them is staying private. It’s not even journalists who have to provide us with the intimate moments in their lives.

They are quite happy doing it themselves on Instagram and Snapchat. However, there are some things that still remain a little elusive, such as their family.

This is because the other person is involved, and they may not want any of the attention their famous sibling is getting. However on some occasions they do step into the limelight and we get a glimpse of these private beings.

In this post we have put together a compilation of photos of famous people with their lesser-known siblings. Enjoy!

15. Scarlett and Hunter Johansson

Scarlett Johansson has her fair share of male fans. This is due, in part, to her stunning looks.

Well many women will be delighted to find out that the Johansson parents also created a male specimen, just as beautiful as the female.

Whilst not anywhere near as famous, he has still shared screen time with his sister, appearing together in the 1996 film Manny & Lo.

Unlike his sister, Hunter’s Hollywood career ended here. The sibling went into politics instead.

14. Vin and Paul Diesel

Vin Diesel is known for his roles in massive action flicks…speeding through the streets in pursuit of a bad guy.

If he ever wanted to know what it was like on the other side of the camera, all he would have to do is ask his twin brother, Paul.

Vin’s brother works as a film editor and is involved in the film industry in a slightly less prominent way than his brother.

He looks a fair bit different from his twin, wether it is the hair or the beard, we can’t put our finger on it.
