It was hootenanny time down at the Bacon and Sedgwick farm, and the internet got to stomping along to the banjo beat.

An Instagram video of Kevin Bacon and his lovely Hollywood wife Kyra Sedgwick performing for their farm animals with a rousing hoe-down has gone viral.

It showed that the star couple can excel in being goofy and having good times when they're not busy playing intense characters.

The Footloose actor cut loose with his banjo and sang Beyoncé's new country song "Texas Hold 'Em" as his wife Kyra Sedgwick participated with a "Whoo!" and "Heyyy!" call-and-response.

The clip featured their pigs Johnny and June and a miniature horse and was jointly posted on their socials.

Bacon called the barnyard concert a "Monday morning serenade."



Fans were hootin' and hollerin' with approval.

The Hollywood couple left the city for a more quaint life when their lives were turned upside down by a financial disaster in 2009.

They, along with many other celebrities, were victims of one of the largest Ponzi scheme scandals in U.S. history, in which former chairman of the NASDAQ stock exchange Bernie Madoff defrauded clients out of nearly $65 billion.

Looking back on it, Bacon chose to accentuate the positive.

He said of his family:

“We’ve made it this far, our kids are healthy, we’re healthy, you know?"
"Let’s look at what we have that’s good.”

After reevaluating their lives following the incident, the couple decided to move away from Hollywood and settle on a farm in Connecticut, where they have been posting videos of their idyllic hijinks and singing to their livestock.

Although the duo dealt with lemons, they've been making plenty of lemonade in the country ever since.

Dem Rep. Offers Brutally Accurate Reason For Why He Can't Understand 'The Mind Of Donald Trump'

Massachusetts Democratic Representative Seth Moulton made a fitting observation about President Donald Trump's mind after Trump gave a 20-minute address to the nation about his war in Iran on Wednesday evening.

Trump claimed “core strategic objectives are nearing completion” in the Iran war and vowed to strike Iran "extremely hard" over the next two to three weeks. He said that he would finish the job "very fast," without setting any timeline for ending the war. He pledged to "bring them [Iranians] back to the Stone Ages, where they belong.”

E-cigarettes have dramatically increased in popularity in recent years and are often even portrayed as a cool accessory on social media. Unfortunately, disposable, one-time-use e-cigarettes have been made affordable and easily accessible, and instead of properly disposing of them, people often leave them on the ground like cigarette butts.
