Many celebrities were also seen jamming out to the song and dancing in their seats during the performance.

After the song was over, according to The Times, Amy Kaufman, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Science's Chief Executive, Dawn Hudson, ran backstage in an excited frenzy and hugged the producers.

Eminem's Lose Yourself also won big at the award show as he tweeted the announcement with a caption quoting the song's lyrics and even apologized in boast for his long-waited appearance.
