The case occupied Twitter for quite a while… until Laverne Cox decided to react, not without kindly mocking the elated fans of her illustrious look-alike.
"It's not me at all who was mistaken for Beyoncé at the US Open tonight and trending on Twitter as the internet shudders over this mistaken identity.
These tweets are damn funny anyway.
