Eminem Makes Surprise Appearance At The Oscars

Back in 2003, Eminem won an Oscar for Best Original Song after penning 'Lose Yourself' for his film 8 Mile.

He didn't show up at the ceremony back then, but at the 92nd Annual Academy Awards on Sunday (9 February) he made a surprise appearance on stage to perform the song.

It was an unexpected appearance from the rapper, to say the least, but the Oscar-winning tune still got a standing ovation from the audience.

Right after his performance, Eminem, 47, took to Instagram to share a video of the 2003 win and he captioned the post: "Look, if you had another shot, another opportunity...

"Thanks for having me @theacademy. Sorry it took me 18 years to get here."

Fair play to him.

Viewers were quick to pull out the reaction from members of the audience. In particular, Martin Scorsese seemed to be having a lil ol' snooze.

Still, congratulations Eminem.
