What you need to know:
Ariana Grande, Doja Cat, Lisa from Blackpink, and many others are among the confirmed musical acts at the 2025 Oscar Awards.
Although they had originally announced that there would be no live songs during the ceremony, it seems things have changed. Now, a list of artists, singers, and musical acts that will be at the 2025 Oscar Awards has been confirmed.
Before we dive in, it’s worth noting that, anyway, they won’t be playing the songs from ‘Emilia Pérez’.
Yes, there are artists and musical acts at the Oscar 2025 awards
As we mentioned, it was quite interesting that this year – which has been surrounded by controversy – we wouldn’t see the songs nominated for best original song performed live. However, it’s not like they’re going to rely on pure cues. The Academy has confirmed a list of artists and musical acts that will be at the 2025 Oscar Awards.
Doja Cat, Lisa from Blackpink, and Raye
They didn’t say if they would perform together or have their own separate presentations. However, it’s confirmed that we’ll see Doja Cat, Lisa from Blackpink, and the British composer Raye at the 2025 Oscar Awards. We don’t know what they’ll sing, but the Academy said they expect a “cinema celebration.”
Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande from ‘Wicked’
Nominated in some categories – not for best song, since the musical is years old – we’ll also see the cast of ‘Wicked’ at the 2025 Oscar Awards. Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande will be singing live, so we’ll see how this expected performance turns out.
Queen Latifah will also be at the Oscar 2025 awards
The queen of hip-hop returns with Queen Latifah in a live act from the Dolby Theater. We don’t know if she’ll perform her hits, but she’s among the musical acts confirmed for the 2025 Oscar Awards.
