Jodie Foster’s triumphant fifth win at the 2025 Golden Globes was momentarily interrupted by a playful heckle from a fellow nominee.
The Silence of the Lambs star, 62, won for Best Actress in a Limited Series for her turn as police chief Liz Danvers in True Detective: Night Country.
However, her fellow nominee Sofía Vergara, 52, who portrayed the infamous ‘Cocaine Godmother’ Griselda Blanco in the series Griselda, heckled the Hollywood icon as she got up onstage.
As the announcer told the crowd that it was Foster’s ’10th nomination and fifth win’ Vergara was pictured rising up from her seat and approaching the stage as she exclaimed, ‘Oh no, give me one!’
‘I know, I know,’ Jodie replied while chuckling, as she acknowledged Vergara’s good-natured jest.
The camera then cut to Sofia’s face, who looked momentarily serious before breaking into a laugh.

Jodie also acknowledged Sofia in her speech, telling the crowd: ‘The greatest thing about being this age and being in this time is having a community of all these people, especially you, Sofia.’
She went on to thank: ‘Our “True Detective” team who I love so much, we are only here for one reason, and that is the wonderful, beautiful showrunner, writer, director. So grateful to you and your talent and your friendship.’
She also thanked ‘the indigenous people who share their stories with us. They’ve changed my life, hopefully they will change yours.’

‘So, my boys, I love you, and this of course is for you, and the love of my life, Alex. Thank you forever.’
After Jodie finished her speech the camera once again cut to Sofia, as she pretended to be frustrated before laughing.
