Katy Perry is one of the most widely known and talented artists in the entire music industry. She dominated the 2010s through her music, having some of the biggest and most dedicated fans. Since then, she has still managed to be an iconic figure in the public eye as a host on the reality television show, American Idol.
It is no surprise that someone as successful and famous as her has people who want to look like her. However, if someone naturally looks like a reflection of a celebrity, it becomes unsettlingly cool very quickly. Recently, this is exactly what happened to Perry.
Katy Perry Met Her Doppelgänger
Celebrity doppelgängers have been a big part of Hollywood long before the internet was created. It seems to be a lot of fun for fans to find someone who looks like their favorite celebrities, except they are more accessible. These people end up getting a huge amount of attention from the world by simply standing in front of a camera.
While many go through different surgeries and procedures to get such levels of fame and attention in the name of celebrities, it is especially unsettling to see it happen naturally. Recently, this is exactly what happened to Katy Perry while she was judging American Idol, as was revealed by them on Instagram.
“Oh my God!” yelled out the singer when she saw her.
The mother of one of her contestants looked exactly like her, with many even referring to her as the singer’s sister. The situation was so disconcerting, that Perry ended up having quite a hilarious reaction.
Katy Perry’s Reaction Was Priceless
Katy Perry has quite unique features, being well-recognized for her iconic blue eyes. Her contestant, Dawson Slade’s mother shared this feature, even having the same hair color and face structure as the artist. Perry became so shocked when her doppelgänger walked through the door, that she yelled out in disbelief.
“She’s the first. She’s the prototype.” said Perry.
The artist even referred to her as the ‘prototype’ of her, considering Slade’s mother would be older than the singer. Her co-hosts, Lionel Richie and Luke Bryan, were also surprised at the resemblance that they asked if the woman was Perry’s sister, or related to her in some way.
They even took pictures together, and indeed, the two look like they would be related in some way. Celebrity doppelgängers seem to surprise everyone to date, even though it is one of the biggest parts of Hollywood.
