buzzz worthy. . . Above: The late Nelson Mandela Above: Actor Morgan Freeman's image mistakenly placed on a billboard honoring Mandela in India after the African leader's death. In a town in Southern India a good deed in honor of the late Nelson Mandela went terribly wrong. According to a Twitter post, a billboard was erected in Southern India in honor of the fallen South African leader, but it mistakenly displayed the face of actor Morgan Freeman. Unfortunatley, Freeman's image was also mistakenly passed around on the Internet as Mandela prior to this billboard error. This flub is likely due to the fact that the American born actor played the freedom fighter rather convincingly in "Invictus," but other than that Freeman bears no resemblance to Mandela. The cloth maker from the city of Coimbactore who ordered to billboard said he did not see the final product, but it will be corrected according to an AFP report.
