[20M] a girl stuck in an elevator told me I look like the guy who killed the healthcare CEO... then called him hot. What was her purpose?

I 20m 6'4 was stuck in an elevator today with a girl for about 20 minutes. After the initial "oh god, we're stuck" panic settled into awkward silence, she looked at me dead-on and said: ​"You know you look exactly like that guy who killed the healthcare CEO, right?"

​I didn't really know how to react, so I just said, "I'll take that as a compliment."

​Without missing a beat, she goes: "Yeah, He’s hot."

It was a weird thing to say why would she say that?
