Many laughed over the photos of Kelleth Cuthbert, otherwise known now as the “Fiji Water Girl,” photobombing celebrities on the Golden Globes red carpet. However, Jamie Lee Curtis was not thrilled. In fact, she was pretty furious about the whole thing.
Jamie Lee posted a photo on Instagram with a caption that read, “I specifically moved away from the blatant promotions by Fiji and Moet where young women with their trays filled with their wares stood near a designated camera. I knew why there was a photographer poised there and I moved away as I said out loud that I didn’t want to be doing advertising for either.”
Then Jamie Lee’s Husband Found Something Else
Later, Jamie Lee’s husband, Christopher Guest, found a photo on CNN of Jamie Lee with the “Fiji Water Girl” in the background. CNN joked that Jamie Lee was in danger of being upstaged by the girl holding a tray of waters and Jamie Lee was not having it.

She went on to say, “Clearly this angle shows that I moved from her being behind me and yet from the side it still happens. The sponsors of events need to get permission from people when they get them to take their picture next to products.”
