KATY Perry was confused for Adele as she shared a stunning Instagram snap, with shocked fans pointing out the striking resemblance between the two stars.

Katy, 36, shared the photo of her performing to promote her new music, but followers were convinced it was a 32-year-old Adele showing up on their feed.

In the photo, Katy – who is famed for her short hair – has her locks styled in long, blonde waves.

She is also mimicking Adele’s beloved cat-eye make-up look with winged liner, and is wearing statement earrings to match her attention-grabbing metallic dress.

Katy is clutching onto her microphone mid-performance in the post, which she captioned: “Come with me to the edge of the world…✨ my first offering of #NotTheEndOfTheWorld”.

Flocking to the comment section, one fan wrote: “Is that Adele?”

Another echoed: “Looks like Adele.”

One more wrote: “Adele, is that you?”

A fourth agreed: “I though this was Adele.”

This is not the first time this year the two women have been confused for one another, with Adele shocking with her Katy resemblance as she marked Notting Hill carnival on Instagram this summer.

In the photo, the singer showed off her seven-stone weight loss in a bikini top – and was also accused of “cultural appropriation” for her bantu knot hairstyle.

Many of her followers confused her for Katy – including Good Morning Britain presenter Piers Morgan.

He said at the time: “This is truly shocking… when did Adele become Katy Perry?”

Fans have since been sharing examples showing how much the pop stars look alike.

One said: “I’m sorry but I saw this three times and thought it was Katy Perry. I never saw the Adele comparison until now.”

“Adele looks more like Katy Perry than Katy Perry does these days,” agreed another.

Someone else added: “Adele’s weight loss led to her being Katy Perry. Wtf.”

Ever since divorcing her husband Simon Konecki and losing seven stone last year, Adele, has dramatically changed her image – with fans blown away by the results.
