Kathy didn’t just apologize privately to Mariska, She also went public with her apology.

On Friday, Kathy who obviously felt bad about what happened and how it went down, told Extra, “I adore and I respect Mariska very much, and I already had reached out to her, DMed her, I want to get her address, I feel terrible.” Before adding, “I would never do anything to be rude intentionally, and I’m really sorry.”

In her defense, Kathy felt like sneezing but couldn’t find tissue paper or a handkerchief in her purse so, out of panic she brought out her lipstick and applied it. “I actually thought I was going to sneeze, and you don’t want to hear me sneeze. It’s the loudest sneeze that you’ve ever heard in your life.”

“And I was looking for a tissue, and I didn’t have a tissue or a hanky, so I got a little nervous, and I just put some lipstick on, but it was during her speech, so I thought… the camera’s not going to be on me. I didn’t think that I was in that shot.”

Mariska who won the award for Best Drama TV Star delivered a very beautiful speech which goes, “I love this award so much because of the two words in it.” She went on to list and explain the two words, “The word, of course, the first word is ‘people.’ And that’s people from all origins and all ethnicities and all creeds, and all genders and all identity that make this whole glorious mix of all of us.”

“The second word, and that’s even more important, is ‘choice.’ So I just want to celebrate our ability in all of us, the willingness in all of us to choose kindness, and compassion and courage and to choose to listen and to learn and to build a bridge between our differences and our divides.”

While delivering her speech, eagle-eyed fans couldn’t help noticing Kathy at one corner applying her lipgloss. When the video came out, the lip gloss moment was the center of the conversation.
