During the Oscars, a group of tourists were tricked into thinking they were going to see a costume exhibition, but they were actually taken into the theater where the Oscars were being held and greeted by some of the celebrities who were attending.

One couple told Washington they were getting married in the summer, and so, of course, he performed a mock wedding, at the request of Oscar host Jimmy Kimmel.

“I now pronounce you man and wife. You may kiss the bride,” Washington said.

“He’s Denzel, so it’s legal,” Kimmel said.

The tourists also got to meet a number of Oscar attendees, including Viola Davis, Meryl Streep and Emma Stone. I’d say they’ll never get a Hollywood tour quite like that one ever again.
