Awkward!
Laverne Cox faced some serious criticism when she forgot to mention Metallica while introducing their Grammys collaboration with Lady GaGa. Talk about a face palm moment!

We’re not sure how exactly the Orange is the New Black actress messed this up, but the activist did in fact say:
“Ladies and gentleman, all my gender non-binary people watching tonight, eight-time Grammy award winners and six-time Grammy winner, Lady Gaga.”
Oh man. Obviously, fans of the legendary rock band DRAGGED the 32-year-old on Twitter for the on stage hiccup (below).
Harsh. Of course, Mix Cox felt TERRIBLY about the blunder as she too took to the social media site and wrote:
Whomp, whomp. It probably didn’t help that the band’s fans were already in a bad mood due to technical issues Metallica faced during their performance.
Hopefully this EPIC fail doesn’t get Laverne blacklisted from presenting at future award shows. Fingers crossed!
