LOS ANGELES, Dec. 2 (UPI) -- Julie Chen, Paris Hilton, Snoop Dogg, Rachael Ray, Gene Simmons and Tony Hawk are taking part in the next U.S. practical joke special "I Get That a Lot."

The one-hour program is to air Jan. 6, CBS said Wednesday.

"'I Get That a Lot' features celebrities tricking everyday citizens in a case of supposed 'mistaken identity,'" the network said in a news release. "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."

The first edition of "I Get That a Lot" debuted April 1and was a ratings hit, CBS said.
