Who are the nominees?
The film Emilia Pérez leads this year’s nominations with a total of 13 nods, including Best Picture, Best Director, and multiple acting categories. Close contenders include The Brutalist and Wicked, each securing ten nominations.
Notably, Ariana Grande received her first-ever Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress for her portrayal of Glinda in Wicked. Additionally, Elton John and Brandi Carlile are nominated for Best Original Song for their track from Elton John: Never Too Late.
Who will be performing?
In a major departure from tradition, this year’s ceremony will not feature live performances of the Best Original Song nominees—a staple of the Oscars for nearly 80 years. Instead, the Academy has chosen to focus on personal reflections from the songwriters, offering deeper insights into their creative processes.
On the other hand, several pop stars will take the stage, with LISA making history as the first K-pop artist to perform at the Oscars.
