Most Emmy nominees accept defeat with grace. Jackie Hoffman? Not so much.
The star, 56, was nominated for Outstanding Supporting Actress against an all-star lineup, with Laura Dern the clear favorite to take home the coveted statue. As expected, Dern was named the winner -- and Hoffman's reaction is truly priceless.
In a moment that many mistakenly thought was serious -- come on guys, if you know her at all, you know she's hilarious! -- Hoffman had a meltdown as Dern took to the stage. "DAMN IT!" she yelled. "DAMN IT!"

Later, Hoffman doubled down on Twitter with a deadpan follow-up: "Laura Dern had famous parents. Forgive me for being real people," she wrote, hashtagging "elitism."
