Laverne Cox‘s response after being referred to as Beyoncé? Flawless.
The Inventing Anna star inadvertently turned a trending subject on Twitter when she stepped out on Aug. 29 to assist Serena Williams on the 2022 US Open. In the course of the sporting occasion on the USTA Billie Jean King Nationwide Tennis Middle in New York Metropolis, the actress wore a black face masks, hoop earrings and styled her hair in a low ponytail. After being noticed within the stands, one Twitter person captioned a clip of the star, “#Beyonce on the #USOpen.”
After the tweet shortly went viral, Laverne shared that she was loopy in love with the Web’s mix-up.
“Not me getting mistaken for @Beyonce on the #USOpen tonight then trending on Twitter because the web cackles over the mistaken identification,” she captioned an Instagram submit that includes the tweet. “These tweets are humorous as hell. Get pleasure from!!! Go @serenawilliams #GOAT #SerenaWilliams #Beyonce.”
And in a sheer trace of irony, beforehand, Laverne posted an Instagram video that includes her outfit for the US Open, set to Beyoncé’s tune, “PURE/HONEY.”
