]]>“What Was I Made For?” defeated Barbie’s I’m Just Ken”, written by Mark Ronson and Andrew Wyatt, “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 Scott George from Killers of the Flower Moon to win Eilish and O’Connel their second Oscar.
They previously collected the best original song trophy for the James Bond theme song from “No Time to Die”. “What Was I Made For?” already won multiple awards coming into the Oscars on Sunday night, including a Grammy for the best song written for visual media.
Despite losing the best original song Oscar to “What Was I Made For?”, “I’m Just Ken” from Barbie was one of the highlights of this year’s ceremony. Ryan Gosling delivered an electrifying performance, which paid homage to Marilyn Monroe’s film Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, and brought the Oscars crowd to its feet alongside Mark Ronson, Slash, and his co-stars Scott Evans, Simu Liu, Kingsley Ben Adir, and Ncuti Gatwa.

]]>Eilish is the front-runner to win the best original song with “What Was I Made For?” from Barbie, and she’ll deliver another rendition of this moving ballad at the Oscars ceremony. She previously won a Grammy and a Golden Globe for co-writing this song with her brother and frequent collaborator Finneas O’Connell.
“I’m Just Ken” from Barbie is also a strong contender for this award, and we’ll get to hear it live during the Oscars. Ryan Gosling, who performed this viral hit in the original film, will bring the Kenergy to the Academy Awards alongside Mark Ronson.
Becky G will take the stage to perform Diane Warren’s “The Fire Inside” from Flamin’ Hot, while Jon Batiste will deliver a rendition of “It Never Went Away” from American Symphony. They’ll be joined by Scott George and the Osage Singers, performing “Wahzhazhe (A Song For My People)” from Killers of the Flower Moon.
The 2024 Academy Awards will return to the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on March 10, with Jimmy Kimmel hosting the show.

]]>Gosling recently set down with Variety for an in-depth interview about the success of Barbie and preparing to play Ken in this record-breaking blockbuster. His epic musical number “I’m Just Ken” came up during an interview, and Gosling even opened up about the possibility of performing it at the Oscars.
“I still have not been asked. It might be too much of a risk to have me do it. I don’t know how that would work. But I’m open to it,” said Gosling, and added he only got used to performing for smaller crowds, during his time with the indie band Dead Man’s Bones.
“I’m Just Ken”, written by Mark Ronson and Andrew Wyatt, is currently in the running for the best original song at the Oscars. Diane Warren’s “The Fire Inside” from Flamin’ Hot, Jon Batiste and Dan Wilson’s “It Never Went Away” from American Symphony, Billie Eilish and Finneas O’Connell’s “What Was I Made For?” from Barbie, and Scott George’s “Wahzhazhe (A Song for My People)” from Killers of the Flower Moon also made the cut. The Academy is yet to unveil the list of performers and presenters for the upcoming ceremony, taking place on March 10.

]]>“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.

She eventually told the producers she’ll attend the ceremony, but she won’t have time to prepare a musical number because she’s busy shooting Joker: Folie à Deux alongside Joaquin Phoenix.
Lady Gaga is no stranger to performing at the Oscars, and this marks her third best original song nomination. She previously delivered powerful performances of the Diane Warren collaboration “Til It Happens to You” from The Hunting Ground and “Shallow” from A Star Is Born.
The list of performers at the Oscars on Sunday will include Rihanna (“Lift Me Up” from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever), Sofia Carson and Diane Warren (“Applause” from Tell It Like a Woman), David Byrne, Son Lux, and Stephanie Hsu (“This Is a Life” from Everything Everywhere All at Once), and Rahul Sipligunj and Kaala Bhairava (“Naatu Naatu” from RRR). Lenny Kravitz is also set to perform during the “In Memoriam” segment.

Lady Gaga owes her latest Oscar nomination to “Hold My Hand” from Top Gun: Maverick, which she co-wrote with Michael Tucker. She previously won an Oscar for “Shallow” from A Star is Born, in addition to receiving a nomination for “Til It Happens to You” from The Hunting Ground.
The list of nominees for the best original song also includes “Applause” from Tell It Like a Woman, “This is a Life” from Everything Everywhere All At Once, and “Naatu Naatu” from RRR. The last song is the main front-runner at this year’s Oscars after winning a Golden Globe and several more awards in the same category.
The 95th Academy Awards will take place on March 12 at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California with Jimmy Kimmel serving as the host. The list of performers is yet to be announced, but nominated songs are usually performed live during the ceremony.

One song that shockingly didn’t make the cut? Doja Cat’s “Vegas” from Elvis. This viral hit was apparently deemed ineligible because it interpolates Elvis Presley’s ’50s classic “Hound Dog”, thus breaking Academy’s strict rules.
