Jodie Foster accepts Golden Globe award in pyjamas with dog in matching neck tie

Jodie Foster celebrated her Golden Globes win in style, wearing matching pyjamas made out of the same fabric as her pet dog’s neck tie.

The star, who scored the Best Supporting Actress prize for her role as a tenacious lawyer in The Mauritanian, appeared taken aback by the win as she cuddled her pet and kissed her wife, Alexandra Hedison, on the sofa.

She said: “Oh my god, are you kidding me? I think you made a mistake. I’m a little speechless, I just never expected to be here again.”

Hedison also donned nightwear, opting for black pyjamas with a cream trim.

During her final round of thanks, Foster included a surprising name – that of Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rogers.

She said: “I love my wife, thank you Alex, and Ziggy [the dog], and Aaron Rodgers and you know, the Hollywood Foreign Press. This is awesome!”

Foster is a huge fan of the Packers and Rodgers had previously mentioned her in a speech last month.

The NFL star is engaged to actress Shailene Woodley, with whom Foster stars in The Mauritanian.
