Fans of Lady Gaga thought for a hot second the "Poker Face" singer was competing in the 2021 Tokyo Olympics.

The Little Monsters were then brought down to earth after realizing they mistook Julyana Al-Sadeq—a Jordanian taekwondo athlete—for their pop idol.

Yet, who can blame them?

The resemblance is uncanny.

Take a look at the photos of Al-Sadeq from the taekwondo event in Tokyo.

Here are both women, side by side.


Fans had fun on the internet cheering on the athlete's doppelgänger.









While Lady Gaga is short of a Tony award to be designated as an EGOT—Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony—winner, there is no reason why she can't go for an Olympic gold medal, right?



Al-Sadeq, who won the gold medal at the 2018 Asian Games in the women's 67 kg weight category, was defeated by Brazil's Milena Titoneli in the round of 16.
