Twitter is shocked to find out that the '3rd Rock from the Sun' actor and the late 'Cheers' star are not the same person.

Well this is awkward.

Actor Kristen Johnston has graced our TVs—and the big screen—for years.


She's had roles in major films like Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me, Ice Age and Bride Wars.

Most of us, however, recognize her for her television roles, especially Sally Solomon from 3rd Rock from the Sun and the infamous Lexi Featherston from the Sex and the City episode "Splat." You know, the one in which she says, "I'm so bored I could die," and then proceeds to fall out the window.

Well, since Kirstie Alley's death on Monday, many tweets have been circulating paying tribute to the late Featherston.

One tiny little thing, though.

That is Kristen Johnston...not Kirstie Alley.

Some users owned up to their mistake.




The rest, however, were called out.




Many are also using this oddly-fated resurgence to sing their praises for Johnston.


While some have ideas for her future.


Johnston herself has even tried to end the confusion.




One thing's for sure—we are so glad Johnston is still here to entertain us.

In fact, you can listen to her on the Wondery podcast Naughty which came out on Monday.

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
