Keke PalmerandSara Haineswere guest bartenders on Thursday’s episode ofWatch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen— though viewers at home might not have recognized them until the end of the show.
That’s because theGMA3: Strahan, Sara and Kekeco-hosts both appeared in disguise, dressing as men and posing as two members of theWWHLIT department, Kellan and Sean.
For Palmer and Haines, that meant wigs, fake facial hair, bodysuits, and wardrobe that completely disguised their identities.
They also dropped their voices while speaking to Cohen, and changed up their posture throughout the show.

Cohen’s guests Jenna Fischer and Angela Kinsey were totally convinced. The twoOfficealums were shocked when Cohen later revealed their true identities, screaming “OMGs” and even getting up to inspect the ladies.
“I’ve been dying the whole show,” Cohen said after the reveal.
“I was trying so hard not to be myself!” Palmer joked. “It was really hard!”
As difficult as it may have been, Cohen praised Palmer and Haines for pulling it off.
“I have to tell you something, you made really convincing guys,” he said. “You both are really hot guys! You are! … You’re really handsome guys. I didn’t know how this was going to work out. I thought we were going to be dealing with somePats here fromSaturday Night Live. But this is really incredible!”
He wasn’t the only one who felt that way. Haines’ mom was also convinced.
“Me and Sara called her mom earlier and she said I look like P. Diddy,” Palmer recalled.
Haines explained, “She said, ‘I know who that is! It’s one of those rappers!’ I said, ‘Oh mom…’ ”

“We really committed,” Palmer said onWWHL.
“We have walks! We dropped our voices,” Haines said, with Palmer adding, “We went through classes. We know how to walk. How to put the weight between our legs!”
