In 2017, NBC News correspondent Jenna Bush Hager found herself in an awkward situation while interviewing Pharrell Williams at the Golden Globe Awards.

Pharrell, known for directing “Hidden Figures,” was taken aback when Jenna asked about being nominated for the film “Hidden Fences.” It was a cringe-worthy mix-up, and she later apologized to Pharrell and the cast, who graciously accepted her apology. Surely she didn’t mean to ask him about “Fences,” a similarly celebrated movie starring Viola Davis and Denzel Washington.
