Jim Parsons has joked his and Jennifer Lopez's names can't appear in the same trailer as people get "confused".
The 41-year-old funnyman voices cute alien Oh in upcoming DreamWorks film Home, which also boasts the vocals of singing sensations Jennifer and Rihanna.
During an interview with BBC Radio 1 Breakfast Show host Nick Grimshaw, Jim was notified of two trailers of the flick online - but neither included both his and the Parker actress' monikers. And the Big Bang Theory star has an inkling why this might be.
"I don't know... You know, attorneys and agents always do things that you don't understand and they never tell you about? I don't think that's what's going on here. JLo and I have no problem appearing in the same... Nothing [no beef] that I'm aware of, nor are we the same person. You can see us in the same room at the same time," Jim quipped. "Love don't cost a thing.
We get confused but once you get us in the same room it's all very clear. Oh yes, he has the skinny butt, yeah. He was Marc Anthony's... no, wait, wait a minute. This is so confusing. He wore that dress to the Oscars... No wait; he's never been invited to the Oscars!"
Jim is busy with promotion for Home and has enjoyed being in the company of Rihanna, who voices Tip, a little girl who becomes Oh's friend.
"She's like really warm and very easy to talk to and was really, really kind of fun and laughy immediately and not at all the diva star I expected to encounter... No, I didn't really expect that at all!" he chuckled about the Bajan star.
As Jim was in the UK during the 87th Academy Awards in Los Angeles last night he didn't tune into the ceremony due to the "horrible" time difference. However, he wouldn't have attended if back in the States anyway, as he didn't receive an invitation.
He did take interest in John Travolta's bizarre behaviour at the event though, which included stroking Scarlett Johansson's stomach and Idina Menzel's face.
