Academy Awards Shocks With Seventh Tie In History
"It's a tie. I'm not joking. It's actually a tie, so everyone calm down. We're going to get through this. Focus up. Calm down. Remain calm. I am going to name one winner. They'll come up, accept their award, and then I'll come back and name another winner. And then they'll accept their reward."
"In Academy Award history, there have only been a handful of times there has been a tie. In the six times before Sunday night, there were ties in 1932 for Best Actor, 1949 for Best Documentary Short Film, 1968 for Best Actress, 1986 for Best Documentary, 1994 for Best Live Action Short Film, and 2012 for Sound Editing."
The 2024 Academy Awards ceremony experienced a rare tie in the Best Live Action Short Film category, marking only the seventh tie in Oscar history. Presenter Kumail Nanjiani announced the dual winners with humor, instructing the audience to remain calm as he presented both awards sequentially. The two winning films were The Singers by Sam A. Davis and Jack Platt, and Two People Exchanging Saliva by Natalie Musteata and Alexandre Singh. Previous Oscar ties occurred in 1932 for Best Actor, 1949 for Best Documentary Short Film, 1968 for Best Actress, 1986 for Best Documentary, 1994 for Best Live Action Short Film, and 2012 for Sound Editing. Conan O'Brien hosted the ceremony.
