Hannah Waddingham corrected Laverne Cox after she mispronounced her name at the Primetime Emmy Awards on Monday.
The Orange Is the New Black star, 51, was hosting Live From E! Countdown to the Emmys when she slightly mispronounced the English actress', 49, name, introducing her as 'Hannah Waddington.'
The Ted Lasso star did not brush past the mistake, but corrected Laverne, telling her: 'Waddingham. Let's get that right, straight away.'
'Tell me, say it again,' Cox asked her, before she imitated Waddingham's English accent, adding, 'I love you so much.'
Waddingham is nominated for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series for playing team owner Rebecca Welton in the third season of Ted Lasso.

She has previously won in the same category for the show’s first season in 2021.
She was also nominated for the second season in 2022, but lost to Abbott Elementary’s Sheryl Lee Ralph.
Waddingham was ever the blonde bombshell on the red carpet, wearing a plunging sparkly light green halter gown.
The Marchesa dress featured a long whimsical train.
Her platinum strands were styled into an elegant updo.
Meanwhile the actress's beauty look was created by makeup artist Gita Bass, who used products from Charlotte Tilbury to perfect Waddingham's red carpet glam - beginning with the brand's newly-launched Magic Water Cream, as well as the Magic Serum Crystal Elixir to perfect her complexion for the big event.
Bass created a stunning pink-toned smokey eye with the Luxury Palette in Pillow Talk and the Eyes to Mesmerise in Rose Gold, before finishing the look off with a new shade of the popular I.S.S.I.N.G. Lipstick, which is due to launch later this month.
The 75th Emmy Awards took place at the Peacock Theater in downtown Los Angeles on Monday evening.
The strike-delayed ceremony gathered Hollywood's biggest stars as they celebrated the best of primetime television over the year of 2023.
Comedian and Black-ish star Anthony Anderson made his debut as the host alongside an all-Black executive producer team for the first time in Emmy history.
