“What Was I Made For?”, written by Billie Eilish and Finneas O’Connell, is one of the main contenders for this award, after winning the Golden Globe in the same category. This duo earned their second nod in the best original song field just two years after winning the Oscar for the James Bond theme song “No Time to Die”.

“What Was I Made For?” will have to face tough competition in the fellow Barbie tune “I’m Just Ken”, written by Mark Ronson and Andrew Wyatt and performed by Ryan Gosling. Ronson and Wyatt are also former recipients of the best original song Oscar for “Shallow” from A Star Is Born, which they co-wrote with Lady Gaga and Anthony Rossomando.

The list of nominees in this category will also include “The Fire Inside” by Diane Warren from Flamin’ Hot, “It Never Went Away” by Jon Batiste and Dan Wilson from American Symphony, and “Wahzhazhe (A Song for My People)” by Osage Tribal Singers from Killers of the Flower Moon.

The winners will be announced on March 10, when the Academy Awards are set to return to LA’s Dolby Theatre, with Jimmy Kimmel serving as the host.

“What Was I Made For?” was one of the tracks in the running for the best original song at this year’s Golden Globes. It was a clear front-runner from the very start, and easily defeated tough competition in the fellow Barbie tracks “Dance the Night” and “I’m Just Ken”, plus Lenny Kravitz’s “Road to Freedom” from Rustin, Bruce Springsteen’s “Addicted to Romance” from She Came to Me, and “Peaches” from The Super Mario Bros. Movie, performed by Jack Black.

To make the whole thing even more impressive, this isn’t the first Golden Globe that the sister-brother duo Eilish and O’Connell won by each other’s side. Just two years ago, they dominated this category with the James Bond theme song “No Time to Die”.

“What Was I Made For?” is currently in the running for five Grammy Awards, including record and song of the year. It also made it to the shortlist for the best original song at the upcoming Academy Awards.

The list of contenders for the best original song at the Golden Globes will include Dua Lipa’s “Dance the Night”, Billie Eilish’s “What Was I Made For?”, and “I’m Just Ken”, performed by Ryan Gosling. Seeing Barbie dominate this category is not a shocker, after all three tracks also received Grammy nominations for best song written for visual media, along with “Barbie World” by Ice Spice and Nicki Minaj.

Barbie songs took over half of the best original song field at the Golden Globe, while the list of the remaining nominees includes Bruce Springsteen’s “Addicted to Romance” from She Came To Me, Jack Black’s “Peaches” from The Super Mario Bros. Movie, and Lenny Kravitz’s “Road to Freedom” from Rustin.

Taylor Swift will also be among the contenders at this year’s Golden Globes, after her concert film Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour received a nod for the newly introduced cinematic and box office achievement award.

The 2024 Golden Globe Awards will take place on January 7, 2024, at The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California.

“Dance the Night” is a product of Lipa’s collaboration with Mark Ronson and Andrew Wyatt, who wrote the music for Barbie, and Norwegian singer and songwriter Caroline Ailin. It comes with a Barbie-inspired music video that sees the singer going through various pink-heavy studio sets.

Barbie is currently scheduled to be released on July 21, 2023. It is directed and co-written by Greta Gerwig while starring Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling as Barbie and Ken, respectively. The rest of the star-studded cast includes Simu Liu, Michael Cera, Will Ferrell, and John Cena.

Dua Lipa will make an appearance in the Barbie movie as well, starring as Mermaid Barbie. This will be her acting debut.

Lipa is also believed to be wrapping up her third studio album, which should come out at some point in 2023. The singer didn’t share much detail on the album so far but shared that it will be a “really personal” release. Her most recent studio effort was 2020’s Future Nostalgia.
