And she was right. "Da Butt" was a song by Washington D.C.-based go-go group E.U. from 1988 that was released on the School Daze soundtrack. Yes, it created a dance craze:

Close has never won an Oscar despite her eight nominations but she has achieved a more iconic moment than any of the eight women who have beaten her. That was truly amazing.
