American film director Martin Scorsese, 77, fell asleep during Eminem’s Oscars performance on Sunday night. Eminem performed his hit single “Lose Yourself” from the 2002 film “8 Mile” during the 92nd Annual Academy Awards. Fox News reported that it was an unannounced appearance.
Twitter users quickly noticed and expressed their reactions. “MARTIN SCORSESE FALLING ASLEEP DURING THE EMINEM PERFORMANCE HAS ME IN TEARS,” one Twitter user wrote.

The Daily Mail reported that the segment began with “a montage of memorable songs from hit movies, before Eminem took to the stage to perform Lose Yourself, which won Best Original Song for 8 Mile in 2003, though many were confused since Eminem’s performance was not announced beforehand.”
