Nicole seemed not to notice Rami after he made the gesture, and it became a viral moment on social media quickly after.
Rami responded to her apparent snub while talking to Jimmy Kimmel on his late night talk show Tuesday night, where he admitted he hadn’t yet seen the clip of the awkward exchange.

He cleared up the snub rumors, saying, "I've known her for many years, despite as it may seem from that video. So I thought I could easily go up and say hi, but in a moment like that, it was very awkward. I have a feeling this is probably haunting me on the Internet."

Rami did, however, receive some love from Nicole's husband Keith Urban that evening, who was also a fellow Golden Globes nominee.
