In a new episode of Josh Horowitz’s Happy Sad Confused podcast, the Poker Face actor was asked if she’s ever mistaken for someone else. “I dropped out for a while,” she replied, referring to a troubling period earlier in her career.

Referring to the LA celebrity hotspot, Natasha said, “Jennifer Coolidge saw me at the Chateau Marmont. I had straight hair and she thought I was Hillary Duff.”

“I was so confused. I was like, maybe I’ve become too well. Because whatever I’m projecting is something I gotta scratch real quick. I have lost my edge,” she continued.

The Orange Is The New Black alum added, “Hillary seems like a lovely person. And sometimes I’ll look at pictures of her and be like, I think maybe this is a good thing. I think they mean this kindly.”

Noting that the conversation was over “quickly” once Natasha clarified that she wasn’t Hilary, the actor joked, “I would rather be mistaken for Keith Richards.”

Though it’s not clear exactly what year this story happened in, it’s worth noting that Jennifer and Hilary did actually work together on the 2004 movie A Cinderella Story.
