'Doppelganger' mistaken for Balotelli in UK parliament creates Twitter chaos

A post from a British MP Guy Opperman created a Twitter chaos after he thought he spotted Mario Balotelli in the UK parliament.

Opperman then took it to his Twitter account to say that "Liverpool striker Mario Balotelli has popped in to Commons Gallery to watch the Drug Policy debate -wearing sharp suit, pink shirt anda poppy," News.com.au reported.

One of the journalists, who started seeking confirmation of the 24-year-old footballer's presence from Opperman, posted "@GuyOppermanMP Hi Guy, Lewis from IBTimes. Trying to confirm Mario's appearance at HoC - are you sure it is him?!" while other wrote "@GuyOppermanMP Hi Guy, Alan at the Manchester Evening News here. Has he really?"

However, doubts started emerging when some realized Liverpool was training at the time and so, Opperman posted again "@ayestotheright press may be divided but u should go and ask him! MPs in Commons agreed it is him ... or his absolute double."

Soon after, it all came crashing down for the member for Hexham after images emerged of Balotelli at the Reds' Melwood training base.

Later Daily Telegraph (UK) news editor Mark Hughes posted "first Picture of Not Mario Balotelli here" with a picture of the doppelganger who turned out to be a 55-year-old dancer with a rather distinctive hair style.

The dancer Ken Hinds, who is only privileged to be associated with the "great man," said that he was sitting down watching the debate and was approached by a number of MPs asking him if he was Balloteli and so he had to disappoint them and say no.
