We all know that One Direction fans are pretty protective over the members of the pop group. In light of the recent relationship and break up between Brit Harry Styles and American pop sensation Taylor Swift, these fans have grown to dislike the "I Knew You Were Trouble" singer, so much so that they would yell abusive comments at her in the street. Unfortunately for Xenna Kristian, these fans cannot really discern between the real pop star and a professional lookalike.

Xenna Kristian claims she has been kicked in the face by a classmate jealous of her star looks. She suffered bruising after allegedly being pulled from her chair and repeatedly kicked while studying at college on Tuesday.



Aspiring actress, Kristian got into the lookalike business after numerous mistaken identity incidents. "It was the start of last year that somebody started mentioning that I looked like Taylor Swift and it gradually got more frequent.

"I would go out and would just walk to the toilets in a club or walk around the shops and loads of people would come up to me and say 'you really look like her'."

The 19-year-old who started working professionally as a Taylor Swift lookalike about a year ago informed SWNS that she noticed a change in fans after Harry and Taylor dated and then split up this past winter.

"Most people are really nice but in December I suddenly started getting the odd nasty shout from young girls," she said. "At first I was a bit taken aback but then I realized they were shouting things like 'leave Harry alone' or 'Harry is mine'.

"My friends found it hilarious that Directioners actually thought I was Taylor Swift and were abusing me."

Though she gets a lot of misplaced grief over Styles, fans can calm down about Kristian going after the One Direction heartthrob because she actually does not like him any bit.

"Harry isn't really my type," she said. "He is okay I suppose but I'm into rough and ready guys and he has got a bit of a baby face."
