Priyanka Chopra, dressed in glittering Balmain white, acquitted herself with honours while co-presenting an Emmy with Blackish actor Anthony Anderson (to John Oliver for Outstanding Variety Talk Series).
Not so much the Emmys announcer who appeared to flub the 'Chopra' while introducing Priyanka - missing out the R and making it 'Chopa.' Umm, oops?
While 'Priyanka Chopa' was not quite as extreme as 'Adele Dazeem,' by the goof up, and presented the award in confidence, her fans on Twitters weren’t so forgiving. “Did this dude just call her ‘Priyanka Chopa’? wtf,’ a fan wrote on Twitter. “The guy said Priyanka Chopa and literally everyone in my family went “Priyanka Chopa!!,” wrote another.
Here are a few more reactions:
