Piers Morgan has taken to Twitter to address whether or not Home Alone 2’s Pigeon Lady was really his ‘finest work’<\/h2>\n

Of all the news you didn’t think you needed to read about today, this it it.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes, yes you read that right, British broadcaster\u00a0Piers Morgan<\/a>\u00a0has been forced to take to\u00a0social media<\/a>\u00a0and respond to claims he’s the actor who portrays the homeless lady surrounded by birds – nicknamed ‘Pigeon Lady’ – in the sequel to the\u00a0festive<\/a>\u00a0favorite,\u00a0Home Alone<\/em>.<\/p>\n

In\u00a0Home Alone 2: Lost in New York<\/em>,\u00a0<\/em>Kevin McCallister befriends Pigeon Lady while in\u00a0New York City<\/a>. Initially, Kevin is scared of her, however, Pigeon Lady ultimately comes to his rescue and helps save him when Harry Lyme and Marv Murchins attack him in Central Park.<\/p>\n

And after learning more about how she became ‘Pigeon Lady,’ Kevin even goes on to gift her a turtledove. Sweet. Until you realize just how eerily alike Piers Morgan and\u00a0Pigeon<\/a>\u00a0Lady look.<\/p>\n

A\u00a0Twitter<\/a>\u00a0user wrote: “Watching\u00a0Home Alone lost in New York<\/em>\u00a0and forgot Piers Morgan has a role in this film.”<\/p>\n

“Everything he\u2019s done since has been s***e,” another added.<\/p>\n

A third commented: “FFS it all makes sense now.”<\/p>\n

And so much discourse is there online about Morgan being the iconic figure, the broadcaster has been forced to address the matter.<\/p>\n

Morgan responded to a tweet, which shared a photograph of the Pigeon Lady on a\u00a0TV<\/a>\u00a0screen, alongside the caption: “Not sure how many acting credits he has but this is @piersmorgan\u2019s finest work.”<\/p>\n

Morgan wrote in a post shared December 1: “It’s. Not. Me.”<\/p>\n

Sure Piers.<\/p>\n

Alas, I don’t know whether it’s a relief or disappointing that Morgan really isn’t Pigeon Lady – the character actually played by\u00a0Irish<\/a>\u00a0actor Brenda Fricker.<\/p>\n

One Twitter user noted: “This joke bores me she was an incredible actor from casualty fame this was a huge gig for her and she nailed it.”<\/p>\n

Indeed, Fricker is considered one of the best Irish actors of all time according to The Irish Times.<\/p>\n

Alas, other fans of the movie can’t help but keep seeing Morgan as the Pigeon Lady and certainly haven’t given up on trolling Morgan over it just yet.<\/p>\n

One Twitter user said: “It\u2019s literally you.”<\/p>\n

“Just say ‘Thank you for supporting my work’, and move on,” another added.<\/p>\n

A third commented: “Just take the credit and say it’s you. easier.”<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s that time of year again, Piers. Hope your get a big residual check this year,” a fourth wrote.<\/p>\n

And a fifth said: “The resemblance is uncanny.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
