It was fun while it lasted ... but turns out Eminem was in on the joke that left Sacha Baron Cohen's crotch in his face at the MTV Movie Awards.
Cohen, promoting his upcoming movie Bruno, sweeping high above the studio on a harness, hit an obstacle, spun down toward the audience and landed face down in the lap of Eminem, exposing his naked bottom to both the white rapper and to millions of viewers watching the awards show live on television.
Eminem stormed out "in a heated rage" after the incident, fuelling internet chatter about whether he was really shocked by the incident.
But according to MTVs head writer the incident was staged.
On his blog Scott Aukerman wrote: "Yes, the Bruno/Eminem incident was staged. That's all anyone wants to talk about, so let's get it out of the way. They rehearsed it at dress and yes, it went as far as it did on the live show then."
