The Norway and Olympique Lyonnais striker made history by clinching the inaugural Ballon d'Or - awarded to the world's best player in the women's game - after scoring 31 goals in 29 games for Lyon across all competitions this season.

Upon being named winner, voted for by her fellow pros and awarded by France Football magazine at a swanky ceremony in Paris, the 23-year-old made her way to the stage in a stunning gold dress, a fitting outfit to collect the golden award.

In the post-award pleasantries, out of nowhere and for reasons beknown only to the DJ himself, Solveig then popped the highly inappropriate question "do you know how to twerk" in a suggestive manner.

The discomfort and near disgust on the player's face was highly apparent, as the embarrassed player gave a defiant "No" in French, shook her head sternly and then made her exit off stage, clearly unimpressed.

The awkwardness in the room almost palpable as the audience made a collective sigh at the tiresome and childish remarks. Astonishingly, Solveig and former France international footballer co-host David Ginola, laughed heartily at the joke.

Comically framing the shambles, the camera then cut away to 19-year-old French wondered Kylian Mbappe, who looked dumbfounded, having been on the stage moments earlier to collect the inaugural Trophee Kopa, given to the best player under 21.

Rightly so, the Twitterati rushed to express their disgust at such unimpressive remarks from Solveig, labeling his comments sexist and praising the classy Hegerberg for her strong and dismissive reaction. Many called him a "clown" or "trash", and others had more choice words to describe the musician.
