In 2025, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences is disappointing music enthusiasts. It’s not about who’s performing at the Oscars, but rather who isn’t. This is due to a departure from tradition in the selection of Best Song nominees.
Typically, the performers nominated for Best Song at the Oscars take the stage. However, this year, none of the five nominees will be performed live. Instead, the Academy has opted to highlight some iconic figures from cinema in an as-yet undisclosed manner. So, if you were looking forward to seeing H.E.R. or Selena Gomez perform, I’m sorry to say, it’s not happening.
As a gamer, I’m excited about the upcoming Oscars, but there’s been no word yet on how the music performances will shape up. It could be that performers won’t get to play their full songs or they might even be performing someone else’s tune. Who knows? Regardless, it seems like this year’s musical performances at the Oscars might take a different form compared to previous years.
Who will be performing the musical numbers at the 97th annual Academy Awards?
We plan to have Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo team up for a blend of tunes from “Wicked”. Although they’re not among the Best Song nominees, they’ve both been recognized in the acting categories. Specifically, Erivo has been nominated for Lead Actress, while Grande is nominated for Supporting Actress.
It’s being speculated that they might perform songs from their movie during the show’s opening, but it’s not yet confirmed. The Academy has been tight-lipped about the details regarding the music, likely because revealing everything ahead of time would diminish the excitement and suspense for a four-hour or longer awards ceremony.
As a music enthusiast, I’m excited to share that I’ll be witnessing some amazing performances at the upcoming event. The details about how these artists will deliver their music are still under wraps, only to be revealed during the show itself.
- Cynthia Erivo
- Ariana Grande
- Queen Latifah
- Doja Cat
- Blackpink’s LISA
- RAYE
- Los Angeles Master Chorale
On Sunday, March 2nd, starting at 7 pm Eastern Time (4 pm Pacific Time), the 97th annual Academy Awards, hosted by Conan O’Brien, will take place. You can catch this grand event on ABC television or stream it online through ABC.com, the ABC app, Hulu, YouTubeTV, and FuboTV.
