An unexpected moment left viewers both shocked and entertained as John Cena took to the 2024 Oscars stage in a manner unlike any other.
The WWE superstar and Hollywood actor participated in a skit that boldly recalled the infamous incident from the 46th Academy Awards in 1974 when a streaker named Robert Opel dashed across the stage.
Just a year after stunning audiences in the first season ofPeacemaker and appearing as a mermaid in Barbie, Cena's latest stunt sees him walk out naked to present the award for Best Costume Design.
The setup for Cena's memorable entrance was masterfully orchestrated by Oscars host Jimmy Kimmel, who referenced the historical streaking event, suggesting how wild the night would be if history repeated itself during the prestigious ceremony. This led to a dramatic reveal, where Cena appeared, supposedly without clothes, hidden only by the use of a strategically placed envelope. The act was a playful nod to the importance of costumes in film, ironically accentuated by Cena's apparent lack of one.
