The best live-action short film Oscar ended in a rare tie. Here are the 7 ties in Academy Awards history.

"The Singers," directed by Sam A. Davis and produced by Jack Piatt, and "Two People Exchanging Saliva," directed by Natalie Musteata and Alexandre Singh, tied for best live-action short film at the Oscars on Sunday night.

The award was presented by comedian Kumail Nanjiani, who opened the envelope and announced, "It's a tie. I'm not joking. It's actually a tie. So everyone, calm down, we're going to get through this."

Nanjiani said he would announce the winners one at a time, inviting each to the stage to accept their award. He first called "The Singers," followed by "Two People Exchanging Saliva."

"A tie. Wow. I didn't know that was a thing. A tie, but we're happy to be up here," Davis said in his speech.

Musteata echoed the sentiment in her own remarks, saying she was "so happy to be sharing this Oscar with 'The Singers.'"

Between the two acceptance speeches, Nanjiani also joked, "Ironic that the short film Oscar is going to take twice as long."

"Zero Dark Thirty" and "Skyfall" were tied for best sound editing at the 2013 Academy Awards.

The award was presented by Mark Wahlberg, alongside the animated character Ted, which was voiced by Seth MacFarlane.

"We have a tie. No BS. We have a tie," Wahlberg said at the time, before announcing Paul N.J. Ottosson for "Zero Dark Thirty," and Per Hallberg and Karen Baker Landers for "Skyfall."

In 1995, the best live-action short film category also ended in a tie between "Franz Kafka's It's a Wonderful Life," by Peter Capaldi and Ruth Kenley-Letts, and "Trevor," by Peggy Rajski and Randy Stone.

The award was presented by Tim Allen, who reacted with surprise after opening the envelope: "It's a tie. Oh mon dieu."

At the 59th Academy Awards in 1987, "Artie Shaw: Time is All You've Got" and "Down and Out in America" were tied for best feature documentary.

Oprah Winfrey, who presented the award, announced the result with surprise: "It is a tie. A tie!"

"Artie Shaw: Time is All You've Got" was produced by Brigitte Berman, while "Down and Out in America" was produced by Joseph Feury and Milton Justice.

In 1969, the best actress Oscar ended in a tie between Katharine Hepburn and Barbra Streisand.

Ingrid Bergman, who presented the award, reacted with surprise as she opened the envelope. "The winner is — it's a tie," she said, before revealing the two winners.

Hepburn won for "The Lion in Winter," and Streisand for "Funny Girl." Hepburn did not attend the ceremony, and the film's director, Anthony Harvey, accepted the award on her behalf.

At the 22nd Academy Awards in 1950, "A Chance to Live" and "So Much for So Little" tied for the award for best documentary short.

Presented by George Murphy, this marked the first exact tie in Oscars history.

In 1932, Wallace Beery and Fredric March tied for best actor.

Beery won for his role in "The Champ," while March won for his portrayal of the titular characters in "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde."

However, it was not a true tie. The two came within one vote of each other, and under Academy rules at the time, they shared the award.
