11. Elinor Burkett (2010)
Awkward: Music By Prudence producer Elinor Burkett "pulled a Kanye West" at the 2010 Oscars when she interrupted the film's director Roger Ross Williams while he was giving his speech for Best Short Documentary. They probably should've figured out who was going to speak before getting to the podium. Twitter went wild with this one.

12. 'Lord of the Rings' (2004)
Lord of the Rings cleaned up at the 2004 Oscars. The last flick in the LOTR series, The Return of the King, came out with a whopping 11 awards, tying Titanic and Ben Hur. "You've given us an incredibly overwhelming night," director Peter Jackson commented.

13. Jeff Bridges (2010)
Jeff Bridges took home the Best Actor prize in 2010 for Crazy Heart, beating out George Clooney, Morgan Freeman, Jeremy Renner and Colin Firth. It was his fifth nod and first win, and boy was he happy. "Oh! Thank you, Academy members! Mom and dad, yeah, look! Whoo!" he said. "Thank you, Mom and Dad, for turning me on to such a groovy profession. Oh, my dad and my mom, they loved show biz so much," he said of his late parents.

14. Ben Stiller (2009)
Ben Stiller channeled Joaquin Phoenix while presenting with Natalie Portman at the 2009 Oscars. He said he wanted to stop being "the funny guy" while Portman just told him: "You look like you work in a Hasidic meth lab." Classic.
