It& #39;s harder for it to happen these days, but have you ever assumed that a famous person was one colour and found out, years later, that they were another colour? If so, who?
Throughout my teens I believed that Tim Westwood was black and was only put right on this in my twenties.

You& #39;re going to think I am making this up, but I know someone who thought the young Michael Jackson of "The Jacksons" fame was a different Michael Jackson from the middle-aged Michael Jackson of extensive plastic surgery fame.

To be fair, there are precious few people who were alive at the time who weren& #39;t fooled by the original sound of Boney M, who turned out not to be three black American women and a black American man, but one ginger German.
