He certainly had the audience on his feet as he rapped: ‘See me in the hallway and you know I hit my dougie / Feel good music, I’m bringing it back / What’s wrong with that kid? Does he think he’s Black?’
Timothee then proudly put his dance moves on display which featured tons of arm movement.
He then went into his second verse rapping: ‘Aye guys, I see y’all on the dancefloor. You don’t know how to act / Try’na steal my swag, but your swag don’t match / Since day zero, Lil’ Timmy Tim I win / Hit my Tim Tebow, hit my Jeremy Lin

Other nominees in the category included Colman Domingo, Sebastian Stan and Ralph Fiennes.
Adrien – who earned his second Best Actor Oscar of his career – then proceeded to have the longest speech ever in the 97 year history of the Academy Awards as it clocked in at five minutes and 40 seconds in total.
The previous record was held by Greer Garson according to the Guinness World Records as hers was reportedly five minutes and 30 seconds when she won for Mrs. Miniver in 1943.
Adrien was brutally roasted on X (formally Twitter) for the length of his speech.
One user wrote: ‘Adrian Brody acceptance speech more like the brutal list. too many names!’
A Complete Unknown, a biopic about folk singer Bob Dylan, was also nominated for numerous other Oscars, including Best Picture – but failed to pick any up.
