Liam Gallagher mistaken for Sacha Baron Cohen at Cannes

Singer Liam Gallagher attended Cannes Film Festival in France to showcase his new Oasis documentary "Supersonic" but got mistaken for actor Sacha Baron Cohen.
The 43-year-old rocker was taunted by local media, who shouted "Sacha, Sacha!" as they tried to take pictures of the person they thought was the 44-year-old actor dressed up as his football hooligan alter ego, Norman 'Nobby' Grimsby, reported Daily Star.
"It got a little embarrassing. Liam was in town to show his new Oasis documentary but a lot of the press here simply didn't recognise him," a source said.
"They just saw the hair and assumed it was Sacha dressed as Nobby doing another publicity stunt."

Sacha was thankfully not in attendance at the prestigious event held in France.
The pair have had a tempestuous relationship in the past, with Liam once threatening to "stab" the actor - who loves to mock celebrities - "in the eye".
Liam attended the fest with his girlfriend Debbie Gwyther and introduced the upcoming documentary about Oasis, which split in August 2009 following a string of explosive rows, at an intimate screening.
