A TikToker is convinced that a deleted scene has ‘reappeared’ in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, and many others are backing her up.
I'm not the biggest Potter boffin in the world, but I can confirm, the scene is very weird.
See for yourself:

Filmed in the infamous Hogwarts Great Hall, the wizarding school welcome Durmstrang Institute and Beauxbatons Academy of Magic to compete in the Triwizard Tournament.
Prior to the sit down meal, Hogwarts students opt to welcome the two other institutions with their official school song.
Yes Hogwarts apparently have a school song - and it's called 'Hoggy Warty Hogwarts'.
Dumbledore starts off the proceedings by yelling across the hall, ‘maestro please'.
As epic as that may sound, the rest of the performance was totally bizarre.
The school students start by singing: "Whether we be old and bald or young with scabby knees", and "for now they’re bare and full of hair, dead flies and bits of fluff."
The faces of the students from the other schools says it all as they look utterly perplexed as to what's going on.
Those in the comments section were equally confused, while some offered to give some plausible explanations for the bizarre sing/song.
One person commented: "That was definitely cut lmfao tho it does explain the interview where dan was mad that the schools had cool entrances and they had this."
Another said: "Deff don’t remember this lol and I was obsessed with Harry Potter. I passed down my stuff to my oldest now. I’ll check the DVD and VHS."
"Dude I nearly peed myself the first time I saw the TV cut with this in it sksjshsnsm," a third added.
Meanwhile, a fourth person reckoned: "Yes. For the tv versions, they added them back in. It might just be part of the director’s cut."
"it's a deleted scene from the movie that actually happened in the book," a fifth thought.
Someone else said: "Lmao in the books Dumbledore has them all pick their favorite tune and everyone finishes at diff times. The Weasley twins chose a funeral march."
Another added: "Oh my gosh thanks for filling me in on that because my cousin and I were both about to flip because we quote almost everything."
