Mark Ronson Has a Previous Oscar Winner in his Corner

We’ve long predicted that Mark Ronson will be walking away with an Oscar on the 24th of February, but it seems we’re not the only ones.

The music producer already has a Golden Globe under his belt for co-writing and producing the song Shallow from A Star Is Born, and is likely to repeat the feat as the track is expected to win Best Original Song next month.

Now, someone who has been on that stage to receive that exact award has expressed belief that Ronson will be doing so too.

“You’re having a bit of a run at the moment. Oh my God — considering what a career you’ve had, you couldn’t have a stronger moment than what you’re having now with the Miley record, which is fantastic, and you. And then the Gaga, which you won a Golden Globe for, Shallow,” said Elton John, who won the Oscar for Can You Feel the Love Tonight from The Lion King, whilst interviewing the nominee. “And I bet my house that you’re going to win the Oscar, so make room for it. I don’t want to jinx it, but I guarantee you you’re going to win an Oscar.”

We’ll keep our fingers crossed.
