I’m sure being a celebrity ordering at Starbucks is like… awkward sometimes. As someone that feels deep anxiety before ordering at my usual Starbucks, everyday , I can only imagine what the A-list feel!
I wouldn’t want to presume they knew who I was, but I wouldn’t want to insult them either! AH!

Well, queen Helen Hunt was faced with this exact dilemma and handled it… gorgeously .
This is Helen Hunt:
Helen is a gorgeous Hollywood icon. It’s hard to believe she’s 56-years-old!
Helen is best known for her work on the iconic ’90s sitcom Mad About You and in my personal fav ’80s movie Girls Just Wanna Have Fun which if you haven’t seen yet, you MUST !
This is Jodie Foster:
Another iconic Hollywood queen. Jodie is also a stunner at 57-years-old and has a career that spans over four decades. She is also a filmmaker and director and truly just a fabulous household name in tinseltown.
But the one thing she is not is Helen Hunt!!!!!
However, the barista at Starbucks couldn’t have told ya that when she thought Helen was Jodie!
“Ordered my drink @Starbucks Asked the barista if she wanted my name. She winked and said. ‘We gotcha’ #JodieFoster,” Helen tweeted, alongside a pic of a cup with the WRONG SPELLING OF JODIE!
It’s clear the actress found the whole situation hilarious, which is what makes the official Starbucks apology that much more endearing!
Referencing Helen’s 1997 film As Good as It Gets Starbucks tweeted their apology for the mixup.
HAHA OKAY GUYS I THINK WE’RE HAVING A LITTLE TOO MUCH FUN WITH THIS NOW!!!!
What do you think of the mixup? Easy to do, or totally disrespectful to these acting icons!? Let us know in the comments below!
