Why is this news? Because splits are incredibly impressive. They’re even more impressive when they’re done in a full-length evening gown while serenading Meryl Streep in front of an audience of thousands. Which is exactly what Anne Hathaway did on Tuesday night. Win!

For the curious, the song is “She’s My Pal,” which was originally sung by Meryl Streep to Jack Nicholson in the 1987 film Ironweed. Other Kennedy Center honorees this year included Neil Diamond, Yo-Yo Ma, and Sonny Rollins.
