The Hollywood stars had a grand entrance in the studio together.
As they entered, Zoe went over to Jermaine to shake his hand before sitting down and then tried to shake Alex’s hand.
But things quickly got awkward when Alex unintentionally embarrassed Zoe and ignored her request for a handshake.
Alex seemed to accidentally overlook everything and hug Nicole instead.
Jermaine intervened for a second handshake with Zoe to defuse the awkward moment.
Jermaine dismissed the mistake and said, “Oops, I’ll just do it again.”
Shortly after the embarrassing moment, Zoe and Nicole sat down with the BBC presenter to discuss their new film.
During the interview, Zoe revealed that juggling between her acting career and motherhood “takes its toll.”
She admitted, “You know, being a full-time mom and a full-time career woman takes its toll.”
Fans took to Twitter to discuss how “gorgeous” Zoe and Nicole looked on the show.
One wrote: “Oh my god how gorgeous do these two look on The One Show?”
A second added: “Zoe Saldana yes please!”
