Poor old Beyonce. she's been at the centre of yet another (not very funny) prank, this time by Austrian radio station, Krone-Hit while in Vienna as part of her world tour.

The radio station (masquerading as Beyonce's representatives) contacted Vienna's Albertina Museum to arrange a private tour for the 27-year-old singer. Then sent a look-a-like in her place. Oh the hilarity

The only mildly amusing thing about this prank was that the double looked nothing like Beyonce.  As you can see from the photos below courtesy of Krone.at.

Even the Albertina staff were unconvinced, with spokesman Verena Dahlitz reported to have said "We were a little doubtful but [we] weren't really sure. It could have been her."

What wasn't so funny was that Beyonce, unaware of the setup, was spotted shopping in Vienna with her mother at the same time.  So it was reported that the singer was behaving like a diva, was rude, and had snubbed the museum to go shopping instead.  Not true.

Check out Krone-Hit's video of the prank...
