Katy Perry has brought in special reinforcements for her new music video: series star Zooey Deschanel becomes her doppelganger in the video.

Katy Perry (36, "I Kissed A Girl") released the music video for her new single "Not The End Of The World" this Monday (December 21st). Not only Perry himself can be seen in it, "New Girl" star Zooey Deschanel (40) took over the leading role. The actress is mistaken for the singer in the video.

While Katy Perry pushes a stroller through the park, the singer gave birth to her first child at the end of August, Zooey Deschanel is taken by aliens on their spaceship. The blue beings wanted to save them from the earth, which is about to be destroyed. But the aliens are of the opinion that they saved superstar Katy Perry. Together with Deschanel, who is given a Katy Perry look by the aliens with a blue wig, they forge a plan on how to save the world from destruction.

The similarity is well known

Zooey Deschanel already noted in 2009 that she passes for Katy Perry's doppelganger and is often mistaken for the singer. In an interview with MTV, the actress said: "It's a bit annoying. The only similarity we have is that we look a little bit alike." You've met Perry before and got to know her as "a nice person". "I'm glad she's famous enough not to be confused with me."
