Naturally, fans thought the whole encounter was hilarious AF:

After the whole thing went viral, Janani explained her side of the story. "I was waiting in line when I turned around and saw someone who looked eerily like Cole Sprouse," she told BuzzFeed. "I almost told him he looked a lot like Cole Sprouse, but then I realized that it might actually be him. Because I wasn't 100% sure yet."
"I decided to turn around and google the name quickly. (I actually googled Dylan Sprouse first, so I hope he didn't see that). I had no idea that he was looking, and thought the phone was sufficiently hidden, but I guess I didn't do a good enough job because when I turned to ask for a selfie, he smiled and told me he'd seen me google him. I told him I was embarrassed, and we laughed and took a selfie!"
Janani says that despite the funny circumstances, Cole was a sweetheart during the selfie. "Even though I never thought he'd see me google him, I thought his reaction was extremely funny. I'm glad there were no hard feelings, and that I got to meet a childhood hero of mine!"
