Angelina Jolie may want to keep practicing her sore-loser death stare for Sunday's Golden Globes.

The official Golden Globes website may have accidentally revealed yesterday that Anne Hathaway will take home the statuette for Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture, Drama. There was a star published next to the Rachel Getting Married nominee's name, which indicates the winner.

The snafu disappeared shortly after popping up, Just Jared reported.

"In the process of preparing for Sunday's Golden Globe Awards, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association web team inadvertently marked a nominee as a winner," read a statement posted yesterday on the Globes site. "The mistake was immediately corrected."

When Hathaway was named Best Actress in a tie with Meryl Streep at last night's Critics' Choice Awards, VH1 cameras caught Jolie giving an icy stare during Hathaway's acceptance speech.

Jolie, along with Kate Winslet and Kristin Scott Thomas, was also a nominee.

Sunday, Jolie and Hathaway are up against each other once more for the Golden Globes trophy.

We have to say we feel badly for Annie H. Not because of Jolie, but what's worse—not knowing if you’re going to win or thinking you've won but then, come showtime, you don't?

Hathaway's rep did not comment about the HFPA's website snafu.
