"The male body is not a joke," Cena said.

John Cena just broke the Oscars with his body-ody-ody!

Cena stunned us all when he appeared naked at the Oscars while helping Jimmy Kimmel present the Academy Award for Best Costume Design.

Host Jimmy Kimmel was talking about a time when a naked male streaker ran onto the Oscars stage in 1974 when he gave a cue for one to come out.

After Kimmel tried unsuccessfully to get the streaker to come out, Cena, who had a cameo in the Oscar-nominated Barbie, leaned out from behind the stage saying he had changed his mind and didn’t want to streak.

“I just don’t feel right about it. This is an elegant event. Honestly you should feel ashamed right now for suggesting such a tasteless idea,” he said. “The male body is not a joke.”

Kimmel then argued that Cena “wrestles naked,” to which Cena replied he wrestiles in jorts. “Jorts are worse than naked! Come on!”

Then, Cena stepped carefully out from his hiding place, revealing he was wearing nothing at all, and holding the Oscars envelope in front of him.

“Costumes… they are so important. Maybe the most important thing there is,” Cena said, holding the envelope over his crotch.

Thankfully for him, Kimmel came back on stage to read the nominees for Best Costume Design. When the camera got back to Cena, he was draped in a beautiful curtain.

The Oscar for Costume Design went to Poor Things.
