Arnold Schwarzenegger's daughter Christina
The star of the Terminator movies and the comedy Twins, in which he starred alongside diminutive actor Danny DeVito, appears to have birthed a twin of his own - in height at least.
Arnie's daughter cut an imposing figure as she strolled next to the Hollywood star while on a shopping trip to Barney's in New York.
Christina, whose mother, broadcast journalist Maria Shriver, is a member of the famous Kennedy clan, looked positively statuesque in her ballet-style flats, next to her ageing father who appeared somewhat shrunken in her presence.
And with a few growing years yet to go, Christina is a dead cert to outflank her once similarly imposing father, in height at least.
Meanwhile, Arnold, whose term as governor of California ends in January 2011 is said to be considering another movie comeback.
When remarking on a familial likeness, the quotation 'like mother, like daughter', is typically invoked.
But looking at former action star Arnold Schwarzenegger and his equally tall teenage daughter Christina - it appears, that the phrase may need to be amended somewhat.
The actor-turned-politician, aka 'The Governator', is in danger of being overlooked by his lofty daughter, who at 16, has not yet reached her full height, but is already shoulder to shoulder with her famous father.
Which is no mean feat when your father is 6ft 2 tall.
