Piers Morgan has once again had to refute claims that have been circulating about him for a few years.
The 59-year-old journalist has been fighting rumors that he has assumed the covert role of Home Alone 2’s Pigeon Lady.
Social media users utilize X to ask if the rumors are true every year around the holiday season, and Morgan always responds with the same response.
This year is no exception. “Watching Home Alone lost in New York and forgot Piers Morgan has a role in this film,” remarked one individual.
Another wrote: “I’m not saying Piers Morgan is the Pigeon Lady from Home Alone 2 but have you ever seen them in a room together at the same time.”
Another person commented, sharing a picture of their TV with a picture of the character from the classic film.
“I’m not sure how many acting credits he has, but this is @piersmorgan’s finest work,” the third person said.
The last remark was retweeted by Morgan, who added, “It’s. Not. Me.” Still, a few individuals ignored the reply and persisted in making fun of the TV host.
“Just say ‘thank you for supporting my work’, and move on,” a user said. Simply claim the credit and claim it was you. Another concurred, “[It’s] easier.”
“The resemblance is uncanny,” said this individual as well. Another person added, “It’s that time of year again, Piers,” in an attempt to participate in the humor. I hope this year brings you a sizable residual check.
You must acknowledge that Brenda Fricker, who portrays the Pigeon Lady in the movie, has some similarities to Morgan, including the tight-lipped grin, the eyes, and the facial shape.
Spencer, Morgan’s own son, is said to have started the long-running joke in 2018 when he posted a picture of the figure on Twitter with the statement, “A chilling night watching Home Alone 2.”
@piersmorgan, never forget you’re in it. However, Spencer continued the prank last year when he tweeted, “Lovely Christmas Eve with the old man.”Sometimes it really is your own.
