Shortly after winning Best Actor for Bohemian Rhapsody, Rami Malek rushed back onto the Golden Globes stage when his movie won Best Picture, which lead to an awkward moment with presenter Nicole Kidman.
The moment was captured by Twitter user @1AbbyRoad, which showed Malek approaching to greet Kidman, who was oblivious, and turned away from him.
The 37-year-old actor took it in stride, gently touching her back while joining the Bohemian Rhapsody producers on stage.

'Rami Malek trying to talk to Nicole Kidman is like me trying to talk to my crush,' @1AbbyRoad said in her Twitter post.
'Rami Malek awkwardly and unsuccessfully trying to have a moment with Nicole Kidman is me trying to insert myself in groups and conversations at social events,' added another Twitter user, @TheBex.
Despite the awkward moment, it was still a big night for Malek, who picked up his first Golden Globe for playing Queen frontman Freddie Mercury.
Malek ended up beating out a talented field for the Best Actor in a Motion Picture - Drama category.
He beat out Bradley Cooper (A Star Is Born), Willem Dafoe (At Eternity's Gate), Lucas Hedges (Boy Erased) and John David Washington (BlacKkKlansman).
In accepting the award, he began by saying, 'I'm beyond moved,' adding, 'My heart is pounding out of my chest right now.'
'This is a profound honor to receive this, and to be counted among such extraordinary actors,' he added. 'I am privileged to be counted among you.'
He went on to thank the Hollywood Foreign Press Association for, 'this incredible recognition, while thanking, 'everyone who worked so tirelessly to make this film what it is.'
'In the process, they gave me this incredible family of actors,' adding that he's going to 'tackle you all in a moment.'
He also thanked producers Graham King and Denis O'Sullivan, who worked, 'over a decade to ensure this story would be told,' and 20th Century Fox and New Regency for, 'believing in us when no one else would.'
He ended his speech by thanking Queen members Brian May and Roger Taylor, 'for ensuring that authenticity and inclusivity exists in the music and in the world and in all of us'
'Thank you to Freddie Mercury, for giving me the joy of a lifetime. I love you, you beautiful man. This is for, and because of, you, gorgeous,' he concluded.
