Action star Sylvester Stallone was blasted by African-American celebrities like Samuel L Jackson and Ava DuVernay, for not thanking his "Creed" co-star Michael B Jordan and director Ryan Coogler after he won the Golden Globe for best supporting actor in a film.
In his acceptance speech, the 69-year-old actor thanked a lot of people but forgot to mention the name of these two during the broadcast, said The Hollywood Reporter.
Jackson took a dig at the "Rambo" star on Twitter. "#waitwaitwait, Ryan Coogler and Michael B Jordan, Thanks for acting with me!!! Loved Sly but," he wrote.
"Well. I'm gonna go ahead and thank RYAN COOGLER + MICHAEL B JORDAN since no one else is. Thank you, brothers. Good work. #smh #goldenglobes," "Selma" director Ava DuVernay tweeted.
Stallone came back on stage during the break, right after his award, to thank Jordan plus Coogler and Jackson was fast to consider that.
"General consensus... Caught up in the moment. I'm good with that, ok?! Off camera thanks, works!," he wrote.
