A sleepy Bruno Mars made an appearance at the BET Awards

Award shows seem to be going on for longer than necessary these days, which is probably why more and more people are getting caught resting their eyes on camera.

Bruno Mars was the latest victim of this during Sunday night's BET Awards. The singer, who opened the show and won major awards throughout the night, closed his eyes and Twitter won't let him live it down.

During Mary J. Blige and A$AP Rocky's performance, the camera panned to the audience—right at the moment Mars decided to rest his weary self. 

Of course, people quickly noticed—some even called him out for 'disrespecting' Blige while others simply took the opportunity to birth a new meme. 

Get some rest, Bruno—or maybe just keep some sunglasses handy next time 😴
