Hollywood was up early Thursday morning to find out which stars had been nominated for the 2016 Golden Globes, but it looks like the Golden Globes itself forgot to have that first cup of coffee before hitting Twitter.
In a tweet sent as nominations were kicking off, the official Golden Globes Twitter account misidentified nominations presenter and star of NBC's Superstore America Ferrera as Gina Rodriguez, the Golden Globe-winning star of The CW's Jane the Virgin.

Twitter, of course, was quick to take notice of the mistake.

Yeah, that's America Ferrera not Gina Rodriguez, official #GoldenGlobes Twitter account... pic.twitter.com/Rm3YeW9ywU— Jarett Wieselman (@JarettSays) December 10, 2015
Did the Golden Globes confuse America Ferrera with Gina Rodriguez?? Smh..— Tropical Fish (@LadyALover95) December 10, 2015
Golden Globes announcement has been a complete BOTCH JOB thus far. Their Twitter account has confused America Ferrera for Gina Rodriguez.— Jeff Sneider (@TheInSneider) December 10, 2015
And as if once wasn't enough...
Mislabeling an actress once? Awkward. Twice? Inexcusable. (That's America Ferrera, not Gina Rodriguez) pic.twitter.com/49ncWUatqt— Jamie Lewis (@jlew8) December 10, 2015
Ouch.
Rodriguez is likely not sweating the flub, however. She was nominated for the second year in a row in the Best Actress in a Comedy category. The race puts her up against Rachel Bloom (Crazy Ex-Girlfriend), Jamie Lee Curtis (Scream Queens), Julia Louis-Dreyfus (Veep), and Lily Tomlin (Grace and Frankie).
You can send congrats to @HereIsGina, who is definitely not @AmericaFerrera.
