Glenn Close is really good at social media. In the past, she’s delighted her followers by posting a photo of her face transformed into an eerie replica of Woody Harrelson’s, shown off her demonic-looking pet troll, and uploaded a magnificently botched ode to Notre Dame. Now, in the latest of a quickly-growing catalogue of excellent posts, she’s taken to Instagram with an inexplicable video of her and magician Derren Brown just slapping the hell out of each other.
Standing in a dark room, Close slaps the English magician across his face. He does the same to her and she brings the brief melee to a close with a last strike that sends him reeling off, holding his cheek. The two laugh throughout, ensuring us that this is not a weirdly heated moment caught on tape and is, instead, some kind of planned fight. What the nature of that fight is, we don’t currently know.
