It's a tie!
The Oscars on Sunday featured one of the only ties in the awards show's nearly 100-year history. In the category of best live-action short film, there were not one, but two winners: "The Singers" and "Two People Exchanging Saliva."
This was only the seventh tie ever at the Oscars, and the first in the live-action short category since 1995. The most recent Oscar tie was in 2013, when there were two winners in the category of sound editing: "Skyfall" and "Zero Dark Thirty."
Before that, the previous Oscar tie was in 1995, when there were two winners for the live-action short Oscar: "Franz Kafka's It's a Wonderful Life" and "Trevor."
The category was presented by Kumail Nanjiani, who, upon opening the envelope, announced, "It's a tie. I'm not joking. It's actually a tie. So everyone, calm down, we're going to get through this."
