By Cedric Thornton

Humor is always the best response to an error.

Empire actress, Taraji P. Henson, mistakenly posted, "YAAAAAAASSSSSS!!!! #maroon5 is life to me!!! #superbowl50 #HappyCamper," on her Instagram account during Coldplay's halftime performance at Super Bowl 50.

After several fans were quick to correct her, she took the post down, but not before Maroon 5's Adam Levine reposted the photo to his account.

Maroon 5 showed there were no hard feelings with a good humored tweet to Taraji, who responded in kind.

Good sportsmanship abounds.
