Katy Perry talks about how she used to sneak in to night clubs before becoming a superstar .Katy who is now 36 yrs. of age pretended to look like Zooey to get into night clubs when she first moved to Los Angeles as a broke teenager.

Her plan worked and she admitted to not having trouble to gain entry into exclusive clubs as Zooey back then when she was broke.

During an Instagram live with Zooey she said that when she moved to LA 18 years ago, I was pretty much nobody, and you were getting huge at the time it was like Zooey Deschanel run the world.

I was so complimented to look alike like you  but I am going to admit something to you when I first got to LA  I went to a club and I wanted to get in but I had no money ,I had no clout no nothing  and sometimes I would pose as you to get in the club.

But Zooey was aware because she would meet with people and they would tell her I saw you at a party last night but in real sense it was Katy who looked like her

“then everybody kept telling me about you this girl Katy looks like you  and I was like who is this Katy and when I saw you for the first time  I was relieved because you are so pretty and I was like thank God she is pretty. “ Zooey

She admitted to being rather wild during her nights out pretending to be Zooey and she apologized for miss representing her
