Rachel Sennott and Rachel Zegler at the OscarsRachel Sennott, the funny gal of films like Bottoms, Saturday Night, and Bodies Bodies Bodies, seems to be having fun with a mixup that occurred on ABC's official Oscars pre-show.
Sennott shared her reaction on Instagram Stories to the moment when the pre-show misidentified footage of her on the red carpet as a completely different Rachel, The Hunger Games and West Side Story star Rachel Zegler. Sennott tagged Zegler on Instagram and shared the crying emoji.
Zegler responded to Sennott's Instagram Story shortly after by acknowledging they both have the same middle name, Anne.

Zegler walked the Oscars red carpet separate from Sennott on Sunday in Los Angeles. The actress was on hand as a presenter alongside Gal Gadot, her costar in the upcoming Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Zegler plays the titular Disney princess, while Gadot plays the Evil Queen.
Sennott wasn't on deck as an Oscars ceremony presenter. However, she previously hosted the big nominations announcement with Saturday Night Live and Wicked's Bowen Yang at an event in January.

"We were delirious," Sennott told Etalk on the Oscars red carpet of that nominations reveal. "It was like a midnight glam call and then we started at like 5 a.m. So by the time we were doing it, I was...like, do you know when you've had a sleepover for too long and you're like, 'Ah!' everything's funny? That was kind of the vibe by the end, but I think people had fun with us."

Sennott is now set to headline her own HBO comedy series, which will premiere sometime this year. Hopefully that will help in the "which Rachel is which" question.
