Michelle Williams Got Mail Meant For The Other Michelle Williams, And The Contents Are Even Funnier

This is Michelle Williams.

And this is Michelle Williams.

One's a singer and Broadway star. The other is an Emmy winner and Oscar nominee. Hard to mix them up, but indeed, sometimes it happens.

For example, the other day, the Destiny's Child singer received mail intended for her famous namesake.

On March 10, Michelle posted an Instagram video talking about Broadway's Death Becomes Her, which just put on its 100th show, when she shared her excitement to open some of the fan mail she'd recently received.

"So you guys know, lately, I've been sharing dressing room updates and letters from people from all across the world," Michelle said. "So I received this letter, and I can't wait to dig in and tell you guys what it says."

Michelle noted the letter was from Germany and written by a man named Phillip before proceeding to read it aloud. It said, "'Dear Michelle Williams, I hope this letter finds you in great spirits. My name is Phillip, and I have been an avid fan of your incredible performances in both film and theater. Your work in movies like Blue Valentine, Manchester by the Sea [and] The Greatest Showman has moved me and many others, showcasing your exceptional talent."

"'I am writing to kindly ask if you would consider signing the enclosed photos I have of you. Having your autograph would mean so much for me and my daughter as we admire your artistry,'" the letter continued. Phillip also wished Michelle well on Death Becomes Her before thanking her for reading his message. "I look forward to your future projects and continued success in your career," he added. "Warm regards, Phillip." The letter was accompanied by a series of photos of Michelle throughout her career.

It's sweet, right? So many people thought so, too!

One redditor said, "This is a shockingly polite & formal fan letter!"

"Right omg it’s so sweet," another agreed.

Some also thought it was pretty funny. "When she held up the pictures, I HOLLERED 😂😂😂😂," read one comment. "she’s such a good sport about it."

"I knew there was gonna be pictures," someone else said. "I started cackling in an anticipatory laugh and then I saw the pictures and couldn't contain myself lmao"

Others gushed about Michelle's "awesome" attitude and praised her "brilliant sense of humour 😂."

"This Michelle Williams is awesome 🤩," one more said.

If you were thinking these two should meet up (because that's the obvious next step), don't worry — Michelle revealed it's already in the works. "Michelle knows what's going on as well, and I cannot wait to see her, hopefully sooner than later," the singer said, adding it's currently "being worked out."

Well, stay tuned!
