Looking like they were separated at birth, lookalikes Nina Dobrev and Victoria Justice are actually not related.

In December 2015, Nina Dobrev had quit “The Vampire Diaries” after six seasons, but interest in the actress hadn’t faded.

She arrived at the red carpet launch of “The Beauty Book For Brain Cancer” to show her support for brain cancer research.

As part of the project, celebrities lent their faces — and social media followings — in order to raise money for cancer research.

Nina joined the photographer for the second edition of the book, which you can buy on Amazon.
