Live performances of the best original song contenders are one of the best things about the Oscars, and they’ll be a part of the upcoming ceremony. Billie Eilish, Becky G, and Ryan Gosling will be some of the performers gracing the stage at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles this March.
After clinching a Grammy and a Golden Globe for “What Was I Made For?” from Barbie, Billie Eilish and Finneas O’Connell will enter the ceremony as the front-runners for the best original song Oscar. Before the winners are announced, they’ll hit the stage for another powerful rendition of this moving ballad.
“I’m Just Ken” from Barbie is also vying for the best original song award, and Ryan Gosling is ready to infuse the Oscars with Kenergy. Mark Ronson, who co-wrote this catchy bop, will join him during the live performance.
Becky G will grace the stage with her take on Diane Warren’s “The Fire Inside” from Flamin’ Hot, while Jon Batiste will perform a rendition of “It Never Went Away” from American Symphony. Scott George and the Osage Singers will also join the lineup and try to captivate the audience with “Wahzhazhe (A Song For My People)” from Killers of the Flower Moon.
The 2024 Academy Awards will take place at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on March 10, with Jimmy Kimmel hosting the festivities.
