.clone().addClass() don't work together

[anonymous]

When an object is copied and a class attempts to be added to the copied object, it will not work. Example.

<div class="cloneclass"> clone me </div>

<div class="appendclass"></div>

$('.cloneclass')
    .clone()
    .addClass('addtest')
    .css({...})
    .appendTo('.apendclass');

This is the output

<div class="cloneclass"> clone me </div>

<div class="appendclass">
    <div class="cloneclass"> clone me </div>
</div>
