LOS ANGELES, March 9 (UPI) -- Jessica Simpson, Heidi Klum, Jeff Probst and Ice-T are among the celebrities starring in "I Get That A Lot," an April Fool's TV special, CBS said.

Also slated to appear on the April 1 prime-time prankster program are LeAnn Rimes and Mario Lopez.

"'I Get That A Lot' features celebrities tricking everyday citizens in a case of supposed 'mistaken identity,'" the network said. "Working ordinary jobs, these celebrities confuse customers who can't decide if it's the actual celebrity or an astonishing look-alike. As these celebrity jesters continue to deny their true identities, various reactions from their customers solicit exasperated and hilarious responses."
