Oscars 2024: John Cena goes naked on stage to present ‘Best Costume Award’

John Cena, a popular wrestler, garnered attention on stage during the 96th Academy Awards on Sunday in Hollywood’s Dolby Theatre.

John Cena made news for rushing the stage nude to deliver an award at the 2024 Academy Awards.

The 46-year-old WWE star and actor was summoned by host Jimmy Kimmel, who brought up the 50th anniversary of a streaker named Robert Opel darting onto the stage during the event, interrupting late actor-presenter David Niven.

With the phrase, “Can you imagine if a nude man ran across the stage today?” Kimmel called the actor to the stage.

‘I said, can you imagine if – a nude man ran across the stage today? Wouldn’t that be crazy?

Cena took the stage walking sideways, his manhood concealed by the Best Costume Design envelope. “Costumes are so important—possibly the most important thing,” he said.

Kimmel took over when he revealed he couldn’t open the package.

Cena then wrapped herself in gold drapery and presented the statuette to Holly Waddington, the costume designer for Poor Things.
