I suspect the cynic in you is right.
When you consider the camerawork, it becomes more evident that it's fake. Firstly there is a shot of Eminem looking up as Bruno descends, to set the scene, then there's a camera following Eminem as he walks out. Far too planned to be genuine.

Of course it was a planned failure above Eminem
The point is that Eminem's reaction was very likely unplanned. Having a camera to follow him off is very easy, there would have been several placed around the audience to capture reaction shots, etc.

I agree
I think it was planned to be over Eminem but like you say, the reaction was unplanned and it wouldn't be hard to get those shots with the armount of cameras covering the celebrity audience.
It did make me giggle the way his entourage just shoved a helpless, dangling Bruno around.

I take your point
but if I were Eminem, i'm pretty sure i'd have moved out of the way before I had an upsidedown man in my lap.
Unless of course, I was in on it.
