Natasha Lyonne Recalls Jennifer Coolidge Mistaking Her for Hilary Duff

The mix-up occurred during a brief encounter at the Chateau Marmont and left Lyonne reflecting on her evolving public persona.

Natasha Lyonne shared on the 'Happy Sad Confused' podcast that Jennifer Coolidge once mistook her for Hilary Duff during a chance meeting at the Chateau Marmont.
Lyonne attributed the confusion to her straightened hair at the time and joked that she might have 'lost her edge.'
Coolidge quickly realized her mistake, ending the exchange with a lighthearted acknowledgment of the error.
The anecdote connects to Coolidge's roles with both actresses: she starred alongside Lyonne in 'American Pie' and played Duff’s stepmother in 'A Cinderella Story.'
Lyonne, now enjoying a career resurgence with projects like 'Poker Face' and 'Russian Doll,' reflected on the incident as an amusing and ultimately flattering moment.
