Norwegian soccer player Ada Hegerberg made history on Monday when she became the first woman to receive the Ballon d’Or, a prestigious award which honors the best soccer players in the world. However, it wasn't long before the trailblazer's precious moment was soured by a downright insulting question from one of the award ceremony's hosts, DJ Martin Solveig, who asked her if she could twerk?
Hegerberg, who is a vocal advocate for respecting women athletes, appeared disgusted by the bizarre question and responded to the host with a firm "no" as she proceeded to turn away from the camera, before reluctantly agreeing to dance to another song with main host David Ginola.
