Paris Hilton Backlash Vol. 19: Paris Mistaken for Her Own Look-a-Like in L.A.

Comeuppance is often tinged with irony and there's nothing quite as ironic as one being so famous for simply being famous and iconic that one is mistaken for one of many of one's notorious look-a-likes. That's what happened to Paris Hilton on her recent evening dining at out at the trendy Japanese restaurant Koi in Los Angeles. According to the British tabloid The Sun, a nearby customer at Koi approached Paris (she was supposedly dining with Pamela Anderson) and said she looked liked "Paris Hilton." Snap! We would have loved to have seen the look on Paris's face when she realized tat was being mistaken for her doppelganger. But given the recent conspiracy of silence among various New York and L.A. hotels, bars and clubs to ban her from their premises, the Hilton Hotels heiress should just be happy that she can still go out for a decent sushi dinner. Though it may not be long before restos like Koi shun her at the door, too.
