Five major cities are hosting Elizabeth Holmes look-alike contests, with thousands of people attending. The contests have become a popular event, with many participants dressing up as the disgraced Theranos founder.

The contests are part of a larger trend of look-alike events, with a Nathan Fielder look-alike contest scheduled to take place in Toronto this month. The events have drawn large crowds, with the San Francisco contest reportedly attracting a significant number of attendees.

The reporting on the contests is largely positive, with many outlets focusing on the lighthearted and humorous nature of the events. However, some outlets have noted that the contests may be seen as insensitive to those affected by the Theranos scandal. The implications of the contests on the public's perception of Elizabeth Holmes are still unknown.
