At Sunday's Oscar ceremony, Mike Myers, 55, and Dana Carvey, 63, briefly assumed their roles as Wayne and Garth to introduce Best Picture hopeful Bohemian Rhapsody.

Mike and Dana walked on stage screaming and reprised one of their Wayne's World catchphrases: 'We're not worthy!'
'I think I'm gonna hurl,' said Mike, a call back to the original sketch.
'Don't hurl, 'cause if you honk, I'll spew,' Dana replied.
'And if you spew, I'll blow chunks, so I shall not hurl,' replied the Austin Powers star, ending the threat.

Classic comedy: A clip played form 1992's Wayne's World before they walked out
SNL film: The footage was of Wayne putting a Bohemian Rhapsody cassette in his car stereo before he and Garth sang along and headbanged to the instrumental guitar break

Getting serious: After a bit of levity, Mike gave a more heartfelt message. 'But seriously, Bohemian Rhapsody played a large part in the success of Wayne's World,' he said. 'We're humbled to be associated with that brilliant song'
Give and take: Although the classic Queen song may have helped the blockbuster comedy at the box office, the movie also helped shoot the single back to number two on the Billboard singles charts 17 years after its debut; still from Bohemian Rhapsody

Myers in 2015 opened up to Rolling Stone about his insistence that the song Bohemian Rhapsody be used in Wayne's World, as producer Lorne Michaels had been pushing for a more contemporary, commercial option.
'I fought very, very hard for Bohemian Rhapsody,' he said. 'At that time, the public had kind of forgotten about Queen a little bit. Lorne was suggesting Guns N' Roses - I don't even remember the song - because at the time, Guns N' Roses had a number one song.
'I said, '" hear you. I think that's really smart," but I didn't have any jokes for a Guns N' Roses song. I had lots of jokes for Bohemian Rhapsody. It's just inherently comedic.'
Bohemian Rhapsody ultimately won four of the five awards it was nominated for. In addition to Rami's winning turn as Freddie Mercury, the movie garnered Oscars for Best Editing, Best Sound Editing and Best Sound Mixing.

The film ultimately...
It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
