Lil Rel Howery, host of the trivia session, told Quest to cut music. He expressed, "that's not fair to Glenn Close. She don't know nothing about 'Da Butt.'" The Oscar nominee quickly schooled everyone on her extensive knowledge of the song. Many were shocked and in awe; even Spike himself took notice of the classic moment.
