Unknowingly, she recreated a scene reminiscent of “Basic Instinct,” which quickly captured the internet’s attention.
The broadcast initially zoomed in on her face and shoulders, focusing on her as she presented the news.
However, as she continued, the camera slowly zoomed out, revealing more of the setting.
Unaware of the desk’s transparency, Costanza sat with her legs apart.
