EminemSacha Baron Cohen screwed up good and proper at the MTV Movie Awards. Or so we thought.

The controversial comedian, in his Bruno guise,  face-planted onto Eminem, wearing no more than wings and a skimpy thong...

But, despite 'storming out' of the show, the US rapper has now admitted that he was in on the stunt all along. 

"I'm thrilled that we pulled this off better than we rehearsed it," Eminem told RapRadar.

"It had so many people going 'nuts' so to speak. Everyone was blowing me up about it."

In fact, it turns out that the gag was planned weeks in advance.Eminem during the stunt

Em says: "Sacha called me when we were in Europe and he had an idea to do something outrageous at the Movie Awards. I'm a big fan of his work so I agreed to get involved with the gag.

"After the ceremony I went back to my hotel and laughed uncontrollably for about three hours," he adds. "Especially after I saw it on air."

Naughty boys, they almost had us fooled.
