Jesse Tyler Ferguson is an actress who stars on TV's Modern Family -- at least according to C-SPAN.

The actor tweeted a screen grab of his interview on C-SPAN in advance of the White House Correspondents dinner, saying he's starting to get worried because it's the third time someone has referred to him as an actress on TV.

Ferguson isn't alone. Last year, Entertainment Tonight mistakenly listed Glee star Chris Colfer as a Golden Globe nominee for Best Supporting Actress.
