Blink twice: that wasn't Beyonce at the Albertina art museum in Austria yesterday.

A Vienna station, Krona Hit Radio, admitted they set up an impostor Beyonce to visit the museum, which has been toured by Brad Pitt , Angelina Jolie and Nicholas Cage in the past.

See what Beyonce -- and other stars -- look like as wax figures.

The fake Beyonce -- who kept her sunglasses on -- hung out and posted for photos with Albertina's director, Klaus-Albert Schroder.

But, a spokesperson for the museum admitted they weren't totally fooled.

"We consider it an absolute cheek," Verena Dahlitz tells Usmagazine.com. "We had a grain of doubt that it might have been her because she avoided eye contact with the director and she acted a little bit strangely."

Check out the day's top news photos.

The radio station spent the day with the doppelganger "to see how people reacted when they could get up close to her," the radio station's marketing manager told the UK Guardian. "But it wasn't our aim to pull the leg of anyone in particular."

The real Beyonce -- in town on her Sasha Fierce world tour -- was spotted by fans in a nearby H&M around the same time.
