Oscars stage in his birthday suit. Cena went onstage nude at the movies’ biggest night as part of a comedy bit at LA’s Dolby Theater. During Sunday night’s 96th Academy Awards, which was hosted by Jimmy Kimmel, the comedian paused in the middle of the ceremony to reflect on how a streaker ran across the stage at the 46th Oscars in 1974.“At the 46th Academy Awards, 1974, David Niven was in the middle of introducing Elizabeth Taylor when a nude man — a streaker — ran across the stage,” he told the star-studded crowd.With a pointed pause, Kimmel said, “Can you imagine if a nude man ran across the stage today? Wouldn’t that be crazy?” He repeated the line after nothing happened, making it clear that he was prompting someone.
