Oscars is always that one big thing, every year! But the surprise element at Oscars 2020 was EMINEM! The 92nd Academy Awards witnessed some power-packed performances but the one that made Twitter go gaga was by Eminem. Yes, you read that right, Eminem had an Oscar gig - 18 years after he won an award. Jaws dropped when a montage of Oscar-winning songs (featuring Rahman's Jai Ho), introduced by Lin-Manuel Miranda, was succeeded by Eminem, live and in person, performed a rousing rendition of Lose Yourself - the song which won him an Oscar nearly two decades ago.
Everyone in the room obviously knew the lyrics of the iconic number. And of course, Twitter was quick enough to release the big deal and drop memes on it. Eminem trended for quite a while on the social media site. He received a standing ovation at the Oscars, and on social media as well.

"Look, if you had another shot, another opportunity... Thanks for having me @TheAcademy. Sorry it took me 18 years to get here," Eminem tweeted. Lose yourself was the first rap song to win an Oscar for best original song.
