Farrell 'fight' was mistaken identity

Colin Farrell has always had a reputation as a bit of a hell raiser on the Hollywood scene, but has denied being involved in a fight that took place outside of a
London nightclub.

Several publications reported the Irish actor took part in a heated argument outside Café de Paris recently, including OK Magazine and the Daily Mail.

But a spokesperson for the 32-year-old denied the reports.

A representative told WENN: ‘It is not him - he is and has been in L.A. Colin also has tattoos which this man does not.’

The photographs in question featured 23-year-old lookalike James Martin.

He told the Daily Star he has been mobbed loads of times by fans of the Miami Vice star.

Staff at the swish London venue gave him free champagne and he was introduced to the stars of Dancing On Ice.

He said: ‘I kept telling the bouncers I wasn’t him but they insisted I come into the VIP part of the club.

‘It can be nice when that happens and it happens a lot.

‘But all sorts of people were coming up to me – even actors off EastEnders.’

However, things turned ugly when stepped outside and found photographers were waiting.

He explained: ‘There was a gang of about 50 people after me – they took my wallet, all my money and used me as a punchbag.

‘Even the police who came to help said I look like Colin.’

Now James plans to cash in on his looks and become a full-time impersonator.
