Greenspan Jan 6, 2020 3:16 AM UTC [Rita Wilson](https://time.com/5486708/tom-hanks-rita-wilson-in-n-out-burger/) caused quite a stir on Sunday afternoon ahead of the [77th Annual Golden Globes](https://time.com/5759238/golden-globes-2020-kate-mckinnon-ellen-degeneres/), as she reported that her hair and makeup stylist was quite late just a few hours before the event. In a tweet, the actor said that her “hair and makeup person” was “one hour and twenty minutes late.” In a second tweet, she said she was “trying to be zen” about it all. But in a third tweet, she said that though the stylist was booked in September, they were still — you guessed it — not there. > [](https://twitter.com/RitaWilson/status/1213940059868545024) > [](https://twitter.com/RitaWilson/status/1213942123591954432) > [](https://twitter.com/RitaWilson/status/1213942400751689728) Wilson elaborated on the situation on her Instagram, writing that she’d only have an hour to get glammed up. [Julianne Moore](https://time.com/5547452/gloria-bell-julianne-moore/) showed some support for her fellow star, commenting the extremely relatable phrase, “Omg I feel u.” In the time between the posts and her appearance on the red carpet alongside husband Tom Hanks, many social media followers were left wondering: Could Rita Wilson’s Golden Globes look be salvaged? > [](https://twitter.com/ldbahr/status/1213982488353107968) > [](https://twitter.com/ckimberlinjr/status/1213977780590927872) > [](https://twitter.com/florencewellch/status/1213947048581632002) Even [Chrissy Teigen](https://time.com/5758114/chrissy-teigen-on-photoshop-troll/) was invested in this mystery, tweeting that she couldn’t “go on” until she found out what happened. > [](https://twitter.com/chrissyteigen/status/1213945706722910208) Others joked that they were indeed holding Wilson’s stylist hostage, including actor and comedian Joel Kim Booster. > [](https://twitter.com/ihatejoelkim/status/1213966531488571392) Though many seemed to enjoy Wilson’s publicizing of her stressful day, others called the tweet insensitive given the [deadly bushfire crisis in Australia](https://time.com/5758907/celebrities-australia-wildfires/) and the [recent U.S. strike on Iranian military general Qasem Soleimani](https://time.com/5758750/iran-us-qasem-soleimani/). Others responded, in turn, that not every tweet merits that level of scrutiny. > [](https://twitter.com/EricRobinson00/status/1213974443715780609) > [](https://twitter.com/lydiakiesling/status/1213992782349520897) But in the end, someone must have shown up with with some eyeliner and mascara, since the look turned out fabulous. > [](https://twitter.com/AshleyPMedeiros/status/1213990062142214149) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5759261/rita-wilson-hair-makeup/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5759261/rita-wilson-hair-makeup/"},"headline":"Rita Wilson's Golden Globes Glam Squad Was Nowhere To Be Found, and the Internet Was Rapt","datePublished":"2020-01-06T03:16:17.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T08:01:10.715Z","description":"Investigations abounded on the whereabouts of the actor's makeup and hair artist","url":"https://time.com/5759261/rita-wilson-hair-makeup/","keywords":["Newsfeed","awards","viral","onetime","clickmonsters"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt8fbcd17b4285885b/698a0860457a523a62d635d6/GettyImages-1197745666.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Rachel E.
