Is there a feud brewing between Sarah Hyland and Carly Rae Jepsen?

Earlier this week, the 23-year-old Modern Family actress took to Twitter to react to news that the 28-year-old "Call Me Maybe" singer will make her Broadway debut playing Cinderella in Rodgers & Hammerstein's Cinderella starting Feb. 4.

"Today's a meltdown day," Hyland wrote. "Carly Rae jepsen is going to be cinderella??? On broadway???? NOT OK WITH THIS. Tell me it's gonna be ok @LauraOsnes."

Hyland followed up with, "Hoping she will be amazing. I'm hesitant though...."

Hyland concluded with, "Too avoid anyone assuming things? My previous tweets do not mean that I'm not a Carly Rae Jepsen fan. The end."

It was announced on Monday that Jepsen will be replacing Laura Osnes in the titular role, which scored Osnes a Tony nomination last year. Jepsen will star in the production for 12 weeks.

"Broadway has been a dream of mine since I was a little girl and I look forward to working with this incredibly talented cast to tell this classic tale," Jepsen said in the announcement.

Jepsen also tweeted Osnes about the news, writing, "Dear @LauraOsnes I think you are truly lovely. Big shoes to fill! It's an honor to try on the Cindy shoes! Xoxox."
