In an interview with RapRadar.com on Wednesday, Eminem confirmed what many fans have suspected since Sunday night’s 2009 MTV Movie Awards — he was in on the scene-stealing stunt that left a bareback Sacha Baron Cohen half-naked in his lap.

“I’m thrilled that we pulled this off better than we rehearsed it. It had so many people going ‘nuts’ so to speak. Everyone was blowing me up about it,” Em tells the site. And at the end of the show, what did he do? “After the ceremony I went back to my hotel and laughed uncontrollably for about 3 hours. Especially after I saw it on air.”
