Glenn Close stole the show at the 2021 Oscars after she twerked to Dat Butt live.
Despite missing out on an Oscar for the eighth time the 74-year-old actress was in high spirits, so much so that she took to shaking her derriere during a segment about Oscar nominated songs.
The incident occurred when Lil Rel Howery asked the actress if she recognised the track being played by DJ Questlove.
To the delight of the A-listers around Glenn immediately knew both the song and the film it was nominated for, Spike Lee’s School Daze.
She leapt out of her chair to give the crowd a show, twerking along to the Da Butt challenge.
She wore a sparkling blue Indian style salwar kameez, covered in sequins and ensured all eyes were on her as she danced in a pair of matching blue gloves.
The room erupted in laughter and fans went into hysterics on social media.
One fan went: “Glenn Close gave a history lesson, cussed the Oscars out for not nominating Da Butt and then did it. Icon “
Another tweeted: ”I am deceased, because Glenn Close just killed me. Just bury me somewhere nice, y’all…”
“Glenn Close shaking her wagon at the Oscars is *THE* official summer 2021 mood,” said a third.
Others called for Glenn to win an Oscar just for her dancing, with Matthew A. Cherry who won last year’s Oscar for Best Animated Short Film tweeting: “Give Glenn Close an Oscar for that pls.”
