In his speech after winning his third NFL MVP on Feb. 6, the Green Bay Packers QB inexplicably thanked Foster, who co-stars with his fiancée Shailene Woodley in The Mauritanian. Foster, a Green Bay Packers superfan, was asked about the shoutout on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Feb. 18. Jimmy Kimmel asked if she would return the favor if she won a Golden Globe for The Mauritanian. Foster said she would, even though she insists she says she's never met Rodgers. After thanking the Packers QB during Sunday's ceremony, Foster revealed she was in competition with him. "Not only am I a big Packers fan, but I am the competitive MVP with Aaron Rodgers," Foster told reporters in the pressroom after her win at Sunday's Globes. "I just got a very cute video from him where he says he is going to get me back. So we'll see who wins." Foster also clarified that she didn't introduce Rodgers to Woodley. "I did not set up Shailene and Aaron Rodgers," she said. "I have never met him. But it is possible I love to talk about how much I love the Packers and sometimes I can talk a little bit too much about them, so of course Shailene was aware of my enthusiasm for the team."
