Whoops! E! News Correspondent Sibley Scoles Addresses Jenifer Lewis as Wanda Sykes During Emmys After Party [Video]

 

If you’re a familiar with Black media, there’s really no reason you shouldn’t recognize Jenifer Lewis on sight!

She’s EVERYONE’s favorite mother, grandmother, and auntie.

Unfortunately, E! News correspondent Sibley Coles made an almost unforgivable mix-up during the Emmys After Pary this evening when she called Jenifer Lewis by the name of Wanda Sykes.

Jenifer calmly made her way up to the stage and corrected Sibley before cracking a few jokes about it.

Sibley took to Twitter to react to her mistake.
