The post you're referring to from 

@blackishpress
 (posted on January 31, 2026) went pretty viral. It shows a side-by-side photo of Janelle James (the actress who plays the hilarious and chaotic Principal Ava Coleman on Abbott Elementary) and Ari Lennox (the talented R&B/soul singer), and the caption simply says:
"Janelle James & Ari Lennox looking like twins sisters in this one 📸"
The image highlights how strikingly similar they look in that particular shot — same vibe, facial structure, energy, and overall beauty. It racked up over 38,000 likes, thousands of reposts/quotes, and more than 100 replies within a day.The replies turned into a fun, chaotic thread where people started "casting" a whole fictional family:
  • Many joked they need to add Kandi Burruss (from Real Housewives / Xscape) as the "big little sister"
  • Others suggested Olandria (likely referring to a viral look-alike or influencer) to complete a "trifecta"
  • Some even threw in Gabrielle Union, JT (City Girls), or called for an Abbott Elementary guest spot / movie with Ari playing Ava's sister
  • Comments ranged from "They both pretty as hell 😍" to "Their father must explain 😭" and "I need a movie"
It's classic Black Twitter/X energy — celebrating Black beauty, finding doppelgängers, and immediately turning it into casting ideas and memes.If you'd like, I can pull up more specific replies, check for follow-up posts from Blackish Press, or search for similar celebrity look-alike threads! 😄
