They didn't come close. Somehow Gao Ting-Ting became Carina Lau (?!?!) from one picture to the next. Some U.S. newspapers picked it up from Getty Images--that is probably where that particular--and particularly egregious--error came from.

The Hollywood equivalent might be identifying Jessica Biel as Jennifer Aniston. In France it could be identifying Ludivine Sagnier as Emmanuelle Béart.

Not long ago Zimbio ran a picture of some producer and Kylie Minogue--she was identified as "and guest", so they are quite ecumenical in their errors.

I think they missed mistook festival director Marco Mueller for Gabriele Salvatores in the John Woo Lifetime Achievement gallery, too, though that one's a bit more understandable, if illogical. I wonder, who does these IDs for them?
