It had so many people going 'nuts' so to speak. Everyone was blowing up about it."After the ceremony I went back to my hotel and laughed uncontrollably for about three hours. Especially after I saw it air."Eminem says Sacha asked him to participate in the stunt a few weeks ago and he had no hesitations about saying yes. The hip-hop star explained: "Sacha called me when we were in Europe and he had an idea to do something outrageous at the Movie Awards. I'm a big fan of his work so I agreed to get involved with the gag."According to reports, Paris Hilton had been asked to be part of the prank at the ceremony - which was held at the Gibson Amphitheatre, in Universal City, California, on Sunday night (31.05.09) - but refused.

At least Paris had the class not to get involved with this so-called prank! These two guys should limit their sickening plays to the porno industry and their award shows.
