When the award was received, Solvig appeared on stage and asked the Lyon star if she knew how to play an inappropriate dance, but the reaction was strong, she said she did not know leaving the podium.

After the incident, the pioneers of communication sites launched a fierce attack on Solvig, prompting him to publish a video on his Twitter account to justify the question and apologize for it, and he did not intend to offend anyone, referring to weak English, stressing that he had to ask the question in his mother tongue.
Sincere apologies to the one I may have offended. My point was: I do not invite women to twerk but dance on a Sinatra song.
