Eminem performed his old hit “Lose Yourself” at the 2020 Oscars in a strange throwback to 2003 when the rapper won best original song for the 2002 movie “8 Mile.”
While stars like Brie Larson and Kelly Marie Tran bopped to the song inside the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California, on Sunday night, no one seemed more confused and baffled by the performance than Martin Scorsese and his daughter, Francesca Scorsese.
The camera cut to the duo during the performance. This was their reaction.
It didn’t take people long to make Scorsese and his daughter Francesca’s reactions into a meme.
Many joked that this is how “The Irishman” director must look watching Marvel movies.
