Zooey Deschanel: Don't Call Me Katy Perry!

by Celebuzz on Apr. 3, 2009 09:30 AM / 5 Comments

Zooey Deschanel has an identity crisis.

Apparently, the musician/actress is constantly being mistaken for "I Kissed a Girl" singer Katy Perry, and she tells MTV.com that she's had quite enough of it.

"It's a little bit annoying, to be totally blunt. The only similarity that we have is that we look a little bit alike," Deschanel grouses. "I used to get, 'I heard you were out at such-and-such club drinking whiskey!' [when] I was at home watching TV. I think we lead very different lives."

Personally, we don't see the resemblance at all, but our friends at Buzznet have thoughtfully compiled a massive photo gallery of the two to help shed more light on the subject.

Readers, have your say in the comments section: Were Katy Perry and Zoey Deschanel separated at birth, or is Zooey making too much of a passing resemblance?

Sorry, Zooey... Katy is almost the exact spitting image of you. Even if you don't want it to be true. She's also getting a lot more publicity than you these days, haha... maybe you should just take what you can get and try not to complain. :P

The first time I saw Katy Perry out of the corner of my eye on a TV, I thought she was Zooey. I've never thought the other way around because the first time I saw Zooey was in Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (awesome). When I looked closely at the TV, I slapped myself upside the head because it was an insult to Zooey. So there!
