Rising film star Piper Perabo has a trick for landing movie jobs - lie like hell. The sexy blonde 23-year-old, star of the upcoming Coyote Ugly (2000), says she's always had a policy of lying through her teeth to casting agents and dealing with the consequences later. She says, "I'm a big believer in just saying yes if someone asks you if you can do something. Then you go home and learn it as fast as you can." And Perabo, who landed her breakout role in Whiteboys (1999) by convincing the film studio she knew how to rap, says she's been in training for her lies all her life - and even fibbed to land her first job as a cocktail waitress. She says, "I sucked at it. I spilled a chocolate martini on a woman in a white suit."
