Queer Icon Tiffany Haddish may have been snubbed from receiving an Oscar nomination this year, but that little detail didn’t stop her from bringing her trademark glee to the ceremony.
Nothing activated that glee like the sight of Meryl Frickin’ Streep.
Caught by Variety reporter Elizabeth Wagmeister, video of Tiffany Haddish leaping over a red carpet rope just to speak to Streep circulated on Sunday night during the awards ceremony.

No one but Streep and Haddish know what was said between the two, but we can always dream. Maybe Haddish wants a role on Big Little Lies season two?
