An actor named Jamie Costa went viral this week, after he posted video of himself portraying Robin Williams, in a short film depicting the moment Robin found out his friend John Belushi had died.

 

 

It was an AMAZING performance that impressed a lot of people.  And folks started sending it to Robin’s daughter Zelda Williams, figuring she’d appreciate it.  But they were wrong.

Zelda Tweeted, “Guys, I’m only saying this because I don’t think it’ll stop until I acknowledge it . . . please, stop sending me the ‘test footage’.  I’ve seen it.  Jamie is SUPER talented, this isn’t against him, but y’all spamming me an impression of my late Dad on one of his saddest days is weird.”
