Movie beauty Angelina Jolie and singer Madonna are related to royalty.
Shock new research shows they share an ancestor with Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall.
They are all distant cousins, descended from the same French carpenter.
And they are not the only ones Shania Twain, Alanis Morissette, Celine Dion and even US presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton are also part of the same dynasty.
Experts say there is an easy way to spot who is part of the family they all share the same nose. And these family snaps show surprising similarities.
There are other links among the clan. Madonna, 49, Celine, 40, Alanis, 33, and Shania, 42, can all belt out a song.
Angelina, 32, and Madge share a love of adopting babies from overseas.
Camilla and Hillary, both 60, might not have got the looks in the family, but both married powerful men.
The Duchess of Cornwall is the wife of Prince Charles, 59, while Hillary is married to former US President Bill, 61.
They are all descended from Frenchman Zacharie Cloutier, who emigrated to Canada in 1634.
The family tree emerged when old Canadian records were published.
Simon Harper, of the website ancestry.co.uk, said: The fact that Camilla and Madonna are related highlights the unpredictable and entertaining nature of family history research.

Hey Country girl... WOW.. You move fast...I am not talking about marriage..ANYHOW... I would LOVE, LOVE, SUPER LOVE to get a posting from you about how Shania is thought of in Greece.. It is hard to picture her very popular but maybe I am way wrong.. Let us know....BOB
This article was to humor us right? Cuz I don't believe it, no coincident can lead me to believe that Shania, Angelina, Hilary, Alanis, Celine, and Madonna stem from the same descendant as Camilla. No way... unless this is a secret society of powerful families kind of junk.
lol Thanx for posting this article Angi. What a riot. There is no way these folks are related it just cannot be. Camilla is an island onto herself. Enough said about this lol
lol about the Pope hee hee. I guess the cd is now what concerns us the most. We should be hearing something this summer I guess if it is to be this year.
I agree 2nd Ammendment, if she is to have a cd out in November or so this year. A single would be released around late August early September. I am sure hoping and hungry for a cd out this year. Its been a long Shania drought. However, having said that if it is to be the following year than so be it. Only time will tell.
