Seventeen years after “Lose Yourself” won Best Original Song, Eminem showed up at the 2020 Oscars for a very random but very entertaining performance of the iconic “8 Mile” song. Celebrities were confused. It was hilarious.
The audience ultimately enjoyed the performance (with the exception of one “Irishman” director), but initial reactions were a little mixed, making for a very amusing broadcast.
Here are the best reaction shots from the performance.
