The Academy Awards are a wonderful opportunity to watch the bright shining stars of Hollywood goof-up, take somebody's case and generally give the world plenty to talk about. Since its inception, the Oscars has been a hotbed of glory, controversy, red carpet stunners and fails. Like the films it honours and the actors it awards, the Oscars award ceremony in itself is just as entertaining.

Cuba Gooding jr: When Cuba was receiving an award for best-supporting actor for Jerry Maguire (1997), he couldn't fit in his thank yous under the allotted time. He ended up yelling "EVERYBODY I LAAV YOU" over the end music till he managed to get every single name in.

The 1974 Streaker: At the 46th Academy Awards, host David Niven was shocked into momentary speechlessness as a nude man walked across the stage. Not sure what to do when The Naked Wonder had left the stage, David awkwardly said to a few chuckles, "Isn't it fascinating to think that probably the only laugh that man will ever get in life is by stripping off and showing his shortcomings?"

John Travolta and Idina Menzel: The Adele Dazeem and Glom Gazingo Oscar moment is by far the most awkwardly hilarious incident the Academy Awards has had to deal with. Travolta called Idina 'Adele Dazeem' in the 2013 Oscars and in 2015 Oscars, Idina aka Adele got her payback by calling him Glom Gazingo.
