Ali Wong made history with a win at the Golden Globes last night, but it was what happened between her and Bill Hader at the event that left fans desperate for answers.
Wong, 41, celebrated a massive achievement at this year's awards show as she became the first Asian American to win the Golden Globe for Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Limited Series.
Wong was given the award for her performance in the intense Netflix series Beef, which also earned her co-star, Steven Yeun, a Golden Globe in the Male version of the category.

Wong thanked Yeun as well as the rest of the cast and the crew during her speech, while also giving a shout-out to her ex-husband, Justin Hakuta, saying: “It’s because of you that I’m able to be a working mother.”
However, it was before Wong took to the stage that viewers got a particularly juicy insight to her personal relationships.
When Wong was announced as the winner, cameras showed the actor receiving a celebratory smooch on the lips from Superbad actor Bill Hader, 45.
The interaction between the pair shocked fans, prompting dozens to rush to X to ask the same thing: Are Hader and Wong together?
"Bill Hader and Ali Wong are dating??!??, one baffled viewer posted, while another wrote: "Did we just hard launch an Ali Wong/Bill Hader relationship at the #GoldenGlobes2024."
But if the romantic interaction between the pair was enough to send you reeling, just wait until you find out that they've been dating for months.
That's right - the relationship between Hader and Wong is nothing new, with a representative for Hader confirming news of the romance to Entertainment Tonight in April 2023.
Hader has since made reference to his 'girlfriend', and their display at the Golden Globes indicates they're not trying to hide their romance, but somehow only a few people had actually heard about it.
Those in the know also spoke up last night after clueless fans shared their shock over the scene online.
"It is so disorienting to me that ppl [sic] just found out tonight that Ali Wong and Bill Hader are dating," one X user wrote. "How does it feel to be normal. I have known this for far too long."
Another added: "I feel like Bill Hader and Ali Wong dating was confirmed and common knowledge since last summer. Apparently only dozens of us knew this information."
Hader and Wong are clearly happy in their relationship, so I suppose it's nice that everyone can now enjoy that for them - even if they are a little late to the game.
