The 39-year-old actress - who stars as Tiffany Doggett in the comedy-drama series 'Orange Is the New Black' - donned a black dress for the annual awards bash in Los Angeles, but she was shocked to find out that her outfit cost a relatively paltry $200.

Speaking to a TMZ reporter about her dress, Taryn said: "My $200 dress, is that what you said?"

And the reporter replied: "Yeah, it's cool."

The actress was unimpressed to learn about the cost of her outfit, insisting that it wasn't as "cool" as the reporter had suggested.

Responding to the journalist's comments, Taryn said: "No, it's not [cool]. It's wack that my stylist didn't tell me that.

"Now everyone else can afford it, that's what's cool about it, but it still sucks for me ... I want to be in like a superstar gown ... So the designer got a lot of press. She should pay me a lot of money."

Meanwhile, one of Taryn's first movie roles came opposite pop star Britney Spears in 'Crossroads', and she previously hailed the blonde beauty as "the best".

She shared: "Of course, I want Britney Spears everywhere you can see her. She's the best.

"She's such a good actor that I feel like they could do anything with her. I was so impressed working with her I was like - she's just very sincere in her acting, you know? It's like everyone wanted to maybe hope that she's not gonna be good, but she was great."
