Jennifer Coolidge is an undisputed comedy queen, having enjoyed a well-deserved resurgence thanks to her widely-beloved performance in The White Lotus.
The Legally Blonde and American Pie star was one of the highlights of last night’s Golden Globes, picking up the accolade for best performance by an actress in a supporting role in her category among the line-up of winners.
During her acceptance speech, she left The White Lotus creator Mike White in tears… while also sparking annoyance and amusement from viewers for ruining the ending and her character’s fate in season two.
But one of her standout moments also came while presenting another award from the 2023 event, when she made an Oscars mix-up.
The 61-year-old was given the responsibility of announcing the winner for best supporting actor in a TV musical, comedy or drama, which eventually went to Tyler James Williams for Abbott Elementary.
As she opened the envelope, she declared: ‘The Oscar goes to…’ as the audience laughed.
While turning the piece of card around, Jennifer appeared to realise her mistake, exclaiming: ‘No no wait! Golden Globe, Golden Globe, Golden Globe…’
Given how talented she is, the blunder could well have been a perfectly-planned bit.
Whether it was a premeditated skit or a genuine mistake, we sure do love her for it… and many of her fans do too.
‘Jennifer Coolidge accidentally saying “and the Oscar goes to…” is already my favorite moment of the Golden Globes just end it now,’ one person tweeted.
‘I 100% do not believe Jennifer Coolidge saying that was a bit,’ another wrote, while someone else added: ‘JENNIFER COOLIDGE JUST MADE MY WHOLE NIGHT.’
‘You’re worried about people, and he really is one of the greatest people I’ve ever met. He gives me so much excitement to be, you make people want to live longer. Mike, I love you to death.’
The mention of her character’s death in The White Lotus season two may have angered some people who were watching the Golden Globes and had yet to catch up with the comedy drama, but others found the spoiler hilarious.
‘Lol why did I have to spoil white lotus for myself the second I see Jennifer Coolidge’s golden globes speech,’ one person tweeted.
‘Not jennifer coolidge ruining the ending of white lotus s2 in her acceptance speech i am screamingggggg,’ another wrote.
