The cast of American Horror Story met for a panel Sunday night when actor Cuba Gooding Jr. lifted up his co-star Sara Paulson's skirt, inciting social media distress.
Paulson, who was standing onstage alongside her other castmates, was greeting co-star Kathy Bates when Gooding Jr. lifted up her skirt and peeked underneath, similar to the behavior of a child. A surprised Paulson pulled her skirt back down and seemed to laugh off the incident, however, social media was less forgiving and waiting for Gooding Jr.
Twitter users were arms about the "skirt-lifting" moment, despite the co-stars seemingly playful demure with each other.
Okay, yes I went back to screenshot this. But does he seriously think this is okay? @cubagoodingjr @MsSarahPaulson pic.twitter.com/xHEnURhY3H
