Behind-the-Scenes Pics Reveal Whether John Cena, 46, Was Really Naked at the Oscars
John Cena’s naked stage appearance at the Oscars took the audience by surprise. Fans shared their reactions to the unexpected comedy skit online, while producers offered insights into the behind-the-scenes process of orchestrating the entire performance.
The 96th Annual Academy Awards, held on March 10, was filled with surprises. From Emma Stone receiving her Oscar in a broken dress to Billie Eilish winning her second Oscar at the age of 22, the night was packed with memorable moments.
One such moment was a tribute to the 46th Oscar Awards when a naked man suddenly ran up on stage while David Nien was introducing Elizabeth Taylor.

“Can you imagine if a nude man ran out across the stage today?” comedian Jimmy Kimmel, this year’s Oscars host, asked, and an intriguing silence fell over the audience.
Unlike the 70th Oscar ceremony, there was no random naked man. At this year’s awards show, it was, in fact, a very famous naked man who appeared with nothing but an envelope in his hands.
John Cena, in all his glory and physique, awkwardly walked on stage and looked over the audience.

“Costumes… They are so important…” he started off his speech.
The sight of a naked man at the Oscars not only startled the audience in the theater but also caught the attention of viewers glued to their TV screens. The internet buzzed with varied reactions to Cena’s unexpected appearance.
