At the 2024 Oscars, John Cena made a memorable appearance by presenting the award for Best Costume Design while appearing nearly naked, a nod to the 50th anniversary of the infamous Oscars streaker incident. Cena, who was only wearing sandals (specifically Birkenstocks) and holding an envelope, presented the award to Holly Waddington for "Poor Things." His unique presentation method was a humorous tribute to the importance of costumes in film, as emphasized by his statement, "The male body is not a joke!" This act was part of a skit alongside Oscars host Jimmy Kimmel, referencing the 1974 Oscars streaker. The stunt left the audience both amused and surprised, creating one of the most viral moments of the night.
