Mick Jagger's Surprise Oscars Appearance Included A Timeless Crack About Bob Dylan

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING Rock legend Mick Jagger surprised the Oscars crowd Sunday night when he turned up to present the award for Best Original Song. “Bob didn’t want to do it because he said the best songs this year were obviously in the movie ‘A Complete Unknown,’” Jagger said, referring to the Dylan biopic nominated for multiple Academy Awards. But there may have been even more truth to the joke than that: The Hollywood Reporter said producers went knockin’ on Dylan’s door to see if he’d present and perform at the ceremony. Since the singer of “Like A Rolling Stone” wasn’t interested, the producers turned to a Rolling Stone instead, although Entertainment Weekly said Jagger’s version of events was indeed a joke.
