In case you hadn't heard, Whoopie Goldberg was walking the red carpet at Sunday night's Oscars, and her tats caused quite the stir - especially when a beauty site that was live tweeting posted the following...
Yeah, er, guys? pic.twitter.com/6PRZmioTDT

When people started dutifully pointing out that it wasn't Oprah, Total Beauty followed up with this post.
We’d like to apologize to Oprah and Whoopi, as well as everyone we’ve offended. It was our error, and there are no excuses. We’re sorry.

While Whoopie accepted it was an honest mistake...

Oprah wasn't feeling quite so forgiving, with pal Gayle King captioning the below: "@Oprah & favorite daughter watching #Oscars & seeing @totalbeautyeditors snafu! We all love @whoopigoldberg but we don't all look alike Jeeeze!"
Still, it wasn't all bad, with Total Beauty being motivated to make a charity donation by way of further apology...
Using this #Oscars #SNAFU as an opportunity to donate $10k to @whoopigoldberg & @oprah's charity of choice. #ThatsNotOprah #WeMeanIt
