Curry house staff tricked by joker claiming to be legendary singer
STAFF at a curry house were tricked by a joker claiming to be the singer Paul Weller.
They opened up Bilash Restaurant early for him and rushed out his order.
The chef posed with the fake Paul for a pic, which staff put on social media.
Fans of The Modfather, 66, playing a gig at the nearby Wolverhampton Civic Hall, then piled into the restaurant.
One spotted the fake — who paid for his prawn curry — as he left.
Simon Cartlidge, 58, said: “Paul Weller is my hero.
“The guy looked more like ex-footballer Robbie Savage.
“When we put staff straight, I think they wanted the floor to swallow them up.”
The Bilash’s manager told The Sun: “He said he was Paul Weller. We were so impressed we even put his playlist on and everyone ate their curry listening to Wild Wood and his best tracks.
“As soon as we put a message on Facebook, suddenly crowds descended. Word got out so fast. It was packed early evening.
“People went up to the guy and he was signing autographs and confirming his legendary status.
“We sat him in the front window table so everyone could see him. Our chef Rex posed for a photo with his thumbs up.
A lot of people were tricked that night.”
