Glenn Close knows how to make award shows pay attention to her, even if she's not receiving an award.

At the 2021 Oscars, as Questlove and Lil Rel were playing a music guessing game with audience members, they approached Close's table playing the 1988 song "Da Butt" by Experience Unlimited.

While the moment was scripted, many are considering it the best moment of the 2021 Oscars.





Close also shared some impressive knowledge about "Da Butt":

It didn't take long for the moment to be turned into a gif.

Whenever the Oscars starts giving an Academy Award for Most Iconic Oscars Moment, we think Glenn Close should definitely receive a nomination.
