Kevin Bacon's daughter Sosie Bacon has sparked a debate among her 245,000 loyal Instagram followers with her eyebrow-raising photograph on social media. The famous offspring, 31, has set social media alight with a series of photographs alongside her Sphynx cat that she posted on Instagram over the weekend. With tongue in cheek humor, she simply captioned the post: "It progressed."

However, fans were then divided over her next few photos which revealed the cat’s head inside of Sosie's mouth. "No no no no no no. No," one fan wrote, among the sea of comments. "Do you understand what they just licked last."

Another added: "My Lari girl has loved to stick her head in my mouth (really just her snout) from the beginning. No clue why. It's so weird." Others shared their amusement on the post, saying: "Actual laughing out loud ! Plus - is this your cat ?!"

The actress has been following in her father's Hollywood footsteps into the acting world and she has made him incredibly proud of her as she makes a name in her own right. Most recently, she had success with the horror movie Smile.

But when she finally, in her early 20s, decided that this is what she wanted to do, she dropped out of college and moved to L.A. and really started doing all the right stuff. Pounding the pavement, doing self-tape after self-tape, and studying.

Usually, you start out and the character’s pretty happy for at least, you know, 15 minutes or 20 minutes before everything becomes horrible. But that’s a movie where the stress level is [insane]. I was very proud of her."
