Eva Longoria and America Ferrera are still feeling the effects of Sunday night’s Golden Globes.
The two presented an award together, and poked fun at Latina actresses being mistaken for each other — something the Hollywood Foreign Press Association itself did recently when its Twitter mistook Ferrera for “Jane the Virgin” star Gina Rodriguez during the nomination announcement.
“It has caused such a macro conversation,” Longoria said during her “Telenovela” panel at NBC’s Television Critics Association winter press tour on Wednesday. “There’s truth in jest. It went over very, very well.”
“Yes, hi, I’m Eva Longoria, not Eva Mendes,” Longoria said Sunday night, while Ferrera added, “And hi, I’m America Ferrera, not Gina Rodriguez.”
