Actress Taraji P. Henson is at the Super Bowl, and she still doesn't know who Coldplay is. Like many Americans, she tuned into football's big game to watch Beyonce urge the ladies to get in Formation. Of course, she wasn't paying attention to Coldplay.

So, in classic Cookie fashion, she Instagrammed about Maroon 5 -- who did not perform at the Super Bowl. Yikes.

At least the Golden Globe-winning actress knows who Bey is. She honored the singer in her next Instagram caption, writing "Yaaaaaaaaaaaaassssssssss come ON THRU #Beyonce."
