San Diego, CA -- Oh no, a San Diego woman is organizing a Beatles convention and needs to find a Yoko Ono impersonator -- pronto!

The BeatleFair 2004 is scheduled to take place in San Diego on July 17-18 and organizer Kathi Rothe wants to recreate Ono and John Lennon's "Bed-In For Peace" at the event.

So far, she has hired a professional Lennon impersonator and has secured the same types of pajamas worn by the couple during their Bed-In. But she still needs a "Faux Yoko" to stand by the bogus Beatle's side at all times.

Wannabe Onos are asked to give the job a chance by applying for it at www.beatlefair.com.

Although there is one wannabe Ono being considered, Rothe says she's not the first choice because "she doesn't look anything like Yoko and is very shy. She doesn't want to talk about peace; she just wants to giggle and make peace signs."

There is no payment for the Yoko position but Rothe says she's willing to consider letting the Ono lookalike keep the pajamas she'll wear during the weekend.
