Meryl Streep just got a standing ovation at the Oscars
The world pretty much gasped when Donald Trump tweeted that Meryl Streep was an "overrated" actress, but the Oscars 2017 proved he was on his own with that one after the actress got a standing ovation...
Referencing the dig Trump made after Meryl Streep's Golden Globe speech, host Jimmy Kimmel joked that Meryl was "totally undeserving" of her Best Actress nomination.
Asking her to take a bow, Meryl stood up in front of her fellow actors at which point she got a standing ovation.
