A handful of celebrities have often been mistaken for other celebrities. Sometimes they’re flattered, sometimes they’re annoyed. But at any rate, here are some notable celebrities who have been mistaken for other celebrities.
Zooey Deschanel & Katy Perry: Zooey didn’t take it very well when she was compared, looks-wise, to pop star Katy Perry. “It’s a little bit annoying to be totally blunt,” Zooey said. “The only similarity that we have is that we look a little bit alike…I’m happy that she’s famous enough now that she’s not going out and being mistaken for me.” And she did it without a single Ukulele.

That being said. There are some excellent celebrity books, like Tina Fey’s “Bossy Pants” and Alicia Silverstone’s “The Kind Diet” and then there are other celeb books that aren’t so great, like “Elixir” by Hilary Duff, but are somehow incredibly popular.
So here they are, the most successful celebrity “authors” ever. I put that in air quotes, because c’mon, nobody wants to be know as an “author” when you can be labeled a “celebrity.”
Lauren Conrad: Conrad is such a successful author she has 4 books! That’s four more than Audrina Patridge has got. Lauren wrote a trilogy of books called the “LA Candy” series, which follows the life of Jane Roberts who moves to LA for a fashion internship and ends up starring on a reality show! Gasp, this is NOTHING like the “The Hills.”

On the show, Lara Prepon plays Handler, who is a standup comedienne on the show, too. Like a tall, blonde, female Seinfeld. To help kick off Chelsea’s show, we’re rounding up six other comediennes turned sitcom stars.

Funny girl Chelsea stars in After Lately, a new scripted comedy series on E!
When Chelsea Lately signs off each night, her gaggle of lunatic staffers is just getting started. And now there are behind the scenes cameras backstage capturing every moment.
“The show is a behind-the-scenes look at what happens at our office when the cameras are off,” Chelsea tells Hollyscoop.
Chelsea's right hand woman and Chelsea Lately writer Heather McDonald adds, "'After Lately' is about us, the writers working on 'Chelsea Lately'. It is shot much like 'The Office' but also like '30 Rock' in that we work on a comedy show. What is cool is that we are playing ourselves and the situations portrayed really happened to us over the years."
So what makes After Lately different than Chelsea Lately? "It's different in that I get more face time, so that's positive -- well, at least for me it's positive. People are always wondering -- and asking us -- what it's like to work at 'Chelsea Lately' and now they'll get an in-depth perspective on that. In truth, we may see the amount of incoming resumes reduced," adds Brad Wollack.
Don't expect to see the cast unfold their personal life on the show. "Happily it mostly takes place in our offices because I don't know if anyone should be subjected to the inside of Sarah Colonna'a sad apartment," says Chris Franjola.
Will we see Jennifer Aniston make an appearance on the show? Sarah Colonna says, "We have some great cameos. Academy Award winners! People were great sports, that's all I can say for now."
I'm already sold on the hilarious new show. Catch super-new episodes of Chelsea Lately Sundays at 11/10c.

This is one for the books--Jenna Jameson thinks Chelsea Handler is a whore.
Jenna took to her Twitter to express her feelings about the comedienne, writing: "Chelsea Handler makes fun of people's kids...Probably because she's a dried up old whore.”
"Just cuz I say it like it is," Jenna then tweeted, “Don't hate...She talks massive s--t. Ok, whatever...."
Wondering what this is in reference to? It has to do with an interview Handler did for Glamour last freaking month, in which Chels referred to Jenna as “raunchy.”
Here’s the excerpt from the interview:
"I don't like the word raunchy. I'm irreverent and I say things that a lot of people wouldn't say, and some of it probably isn't in the best taste. But when I hear the word raunchy, to me that describes Jenna Jameson. Look, I'm never going to please everybody."
Um, no mention of children there….Not sure what Jenna is referring to. And I’m sure she’s heard worse than “raunchy” in her lifetime—she made a living by having sex on camera…not sure what she expects.
Just wait—Chelsea is going to go off on her show tonight!
