The 30-year-old took to Instagram this week to share a video of herself in bed with her boyfriend, actor Scoot McNairy, kissing him on the forehead.
Using a filter, Sosie's face then transformed in slow-motioned as she smiled directly at the camera, something that made many of her followers feel uneasy about.
