Have you ever had to do a double-take because you saw someone that looked like a celebrity? That’s what happened with netizens who mistook Indonesian singer Rizky Febian’s bodyguard for a certain American rapper.

The Indonesian singer was recently in Malaysia for a concert but took some time out of his busy schedule to perform for fans at a busking session in KLCC. Videos of the performance were uploaded on social media – but netizens’ eyes were drawn to the individual standing right beside Rizky.

The man in question was Rizky’s bodyguard, who surprisingly bears a striking resemblance to American rapper Kanye West. One netizen who shared the video on Twitter even asked, “Why is Kanye West (acting as) Rizky Febian’s security in KL?”.

The revelation had many netizens amused and in agreement with the tweet, saying the man does resemble the 46-year-old rapper and even joking that the bodyguard gig was the rapper’s side income.

However, it turns out the bodyguard isn’t the only person resemble someone in the video. A few commented on the tweet, opining Rizky Febian looks similar to influencer Ubai Mz, husband of local singer Shila Amzah.
