Jamie Lee Curtis Really Does Not Like the Fiji Water Girl
[CROSSTALK]
When the Fiji Water Girl (alias Kelleth Cuthbert) took over the background of dozens of Golden Globes celeb photos, the internet was (mostly) delighted. Who was this party crasher, this ambitious scene stealer shooting her shot? It may have seemed like good fun as the world worked to ID her, but Jamie Lee Curtis was not laughing.
The actress was featured in a photo on CNN's website that showed Cuthbert eyeing Curtis from afar, and Curtis called out how weird the whole experience was.

"Clearly this angle shows that I moved from her being behind me and yet from the side it still happens. The sponsors of events need to get permission from people when they get them to take their picture next to products."
After the Globes hype died down, others also began to take issue with the "PR stunt," just like Curtis.

No word yet on what Cuthbert thinks of it all, but if we had to guess, we'd say she's probably off somewhere sipping Fiji Water like this.
