Radio Station Claims Responsibility for Beyoncé Double in Vienna

The Albertina museum in Vienna called Beyoncé a "cheek" this week after they learned that a Beyoncé look-alike showed up for an exclusive tour of the museum. Turns out the look-alike was hired not by Beyoncé, but by a local radio station as a prank. Media speculated that Beyoncé had hired the look-alike so she could go shopping and avoid the tour. But alas, the real Beyoncé was taking a walk to the historic city center. She may or may not have gone shopping, but remains no less of a role model. [Earth Times]
