Beyonce Snubs Austrian Museum, Sends Look-a-Like So She Can Go Shopping


Beyoncè has angered a high-brow art museum in Vienna by sending a look-a-like to her own special personal tour of the museum, while she went shopping.

Tabloid dailies Oesterreich and Heute said Beyoncè (or was it Sasha) had been due to visit the Albertina, one of the Austrian capital's most famous museums which attracts one million visitors each year.

But Beyoncè, who gave a concert in Vienna on Tuesday, decided to blow off the museum to take in some shopping with mama Tina instead (pictured), sending a look-a-like to the museum and be photographed with Albertina director, Klaus Albrecht Schroeder.

The museum was understandably put out and said it would complain to Matthew Knowles, and her management.

"What a cheek," Albertina spokeswoman Verena Dahlitz told the Austrian news agency APA. "We were a little doubtful yesterday, but weren't really sure. It could have been her.

She says the fans were duped, too.

Beyoncè's concert in Vienna met with very mixed reviews and was only half-full, according to Oesterreich.

Update: Here's the alleged look-a-like.

Ummm it was a radio station that pranked the museum with the Beyonce look-a-like. Not a stan, but this one had nothing to do with Beyonce or her people.

This story is oh so wrong, Sasha had nothing to do with it.

A museum just got excited because they thought she was really coming, only to find out it was a prank set up by a radio station.

Hmm... museum OR shopping in spare time... = SHOPPING!!!
