The 2026 Oscars had a shocking moment during the ceremony, when the award for best live action short film ended in a tie — but an Oscars tie has actually happened multiple times in past years. Kumail Nanjiani presented the award Sunday, which ended up going to both “The Singers” and “Two People Exchanging Saliva.” The shock was evident from the start when Nanjiani asked the audience not to panic after he opened up the envelope and saw it was a tie. “It’s a tie,” he announced as the audience audibly reacted in surprise. “I’m not joking. It’s actually a tie. We’re going to get through this.” Watch the full video to see all the times it has happened before.
