Cuba Gooding Jr. enraged Sarah Paulson fans on Sunday after lifting up the Emmy-winning actress' dress on stage at PaleyFest in Los Angeles.
Paulson shrieked as Gooding successfully pulled up the back of her dress, nearly exposing her underwear while she was trying to hug another "American Horror Story" co-star, Kathy Bates, during a panel for the FX horror series.
A clip of the incident was shared on social media and the internet immediately reacted.

Gooding and Paulson's representatives have not yet responded to TooFab with any comment on the situation. Despite the moment fans are slamming Gooding for, the panel discussion went smoothly and remained lighthearted.
Take a look at a few of the heated reactions below.
