Eminem has revealed that his surprise performance at the Oscars was almost ruined by loose microphone equipment. The rapper 47, performed Lose Yourself, to mark 17 years since the track won best original song after it featured in the film, 8 Mile.

His performance received a standing ovation and was very well received but Eminem has admitted that he refuses to watch the performance as it was almost wrecked by equipment.

On Mike Tyson’s Hotboxin’ podcast, he said: “When I went out there everything was cool. I go through the first verse and they had the mic pack that you wear to clip on your belt and your in-ears so you can hear the sound. "And I’m rapping and all of a sudden I see between my legs the motherf***ing pack’s swinging.” Eminem,
