The rapper confused many when he appeared live on stage singing his Oscar-winning 2002 hit Lose Yourself from 8 Mile following a montage of Best Original Songs throughout the years. ABC reality boss Robert Mills explained that Eminem was making up for his no-show at the 2003 Oscars, when he was nominated, because he thought he wasn't going to win. “I just felt like I had no chance of winning because, you know, when I heard I was nominated, I thought that was for actors,” he said in a 2007 interview. As Eminem himself tweeted after his performance, "Look, if you had another shot, another opportunity... Thanks for having me @TheAcademy. Sorry it took me 18 years to get here."
