ZOE Saldana crashed the Golden Globes stage during the Best Song award in a bizarre move caught by live TV cameras. 

Many viewers were left confused by Zoe’s outburst - with some even raging that the move was “disrespectful” and "took attention away" from the composers who won.

Jeff Goldblum and Michelle Yeoh joined forces to present the Golden Globe for Best Original Song. 

The category was ultimately awarded to French musicians Clément Ducol and Camille for their work on the song El Mal for Jacques Audiard's movie Emilia Pérez on Netflix, which Zoe sang for the movie.

As Clement and Camille were walking up to accept the award, Zoe brazenly rushed on stage and could be seen running in the background. 

She snatched the trophy from Jeff and Michelle's hands and waited for Clement and Camille to join the stage - presumably to hand the award to the pair herself.

Clement and Camille smirked as they walked to the stage once they noticed Zoe had run up to join their moment.

At one point in the middle of Camille’s speech, she turned around and acknowledged Zoe in a chaotic live TV moment. 

Fans were left confused by the unscripted moment - with some even recalling how rapper Lil Mama crashed Jay Z and Alicia Keys' performance at the 2009 MTV VMA's.

"Did Zoe Saldana just pull a Lil Mama on stage?" an X user wrote.

"Zoe Saldana getting on stage during the presentation of Best Song," another said next to a photo of Lil Mama, Jay Z, and Alicia.

Others were furious with the move, with one asking, "Why is Zoe Saldana on the stage? I know she won (and I do like her) but she really needs to sit down.

"Her rambling speech was bad enough, but this is just cringe (and disrespectful TBH)."

"Wow Zoe should be embarrassed, now why would she rush up on the stage like that?" another questioned.

Earlier in the evening, Zoe appeared overwhelmed as she was named best supporting film actress.

The 46-year-old star collected the gong for her portrayal of a lawyer who helps a Mexican drug lord start a new life and transition to a woman in the musical thriller.

Struggling to speak through tears, she thanked her co-stars and director, saying, "My heart is full of gratitude to the Golden Globes for celebrating our film."

Just as it appeared she was going to wrap up her speech, she continued to speak for several minutes more.

Though the wrap-up song was playing as a sign for the actress to finish up her speech, Zoe talked over the music as she shouted out her family - leading to awkward chuckles from the audience.

WHAT THE BLEEP?!

The unusual incident wasn't the only eyebrow-raising moment of the night.

The Globes were forced to abruptly bleep out a word Seth Rogen muttered during the show - leaving fans dying to know what he said. 

The actor kept viewers on their toes as he made an appearance with fellow Canadian Catherine O’Hara to present an award for female actor in a limited series or TV movie.

Seth, 42, seemed to forget he was on live television as he was quickly bleeped out in the middle of a raunchy joke about Ryan Gosling.

“What about your brave Golden Antler win? Your turn as young Ryan in Gosling, the unauthorized biopic?” Catherine said with a sly smile.

“Thank you, yes it was unauthorized and uh - BLEEP -" Seth said as the moment was interrupted by several seconds of silence, before he continued: "which we felt very important to depict."

Despite the apparent mishap, the bit continued as Catherine and Seth played off the not-safe-for-TV moment.

However, the moment didn’t bypass viewers as many claimed they were dying to know what the comedian said. 

“They blurred off Seth Rogen I NEED TO KNOW WHAT HE SAID,” one person exclaimed.
