Barbie actor Ryan Gosling is among the five Oscar-nominated singers who are to perform at the 2024 Oscars ceremony on March 10, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced on Wednesday.
While Gosling and songwriter Mark Ronson will belt out I'm Just Ken from Barbie, Billie Eilish and her brother Finneas O'Connell will enchant the audience with What Was I Made For? — another Oscar-nominated song from the Greta Gerwig directorial.
Apart from them, the 96th Oscars ceremony will also feature performances by talented artistes such as Jon Batiste, Becky G, and Scott George and the Osage Singers.
Here is the complete list of nominated songs that will be performed at the Oscars:
- The Fire Inside from Flamin' Hot: Performed by Becky G (music and lyric by Diane Warren)
- I'm Just Ken from Barbie: Performed by Ryan Gosling and Mark Ronson (music and lyric by Mark Ronson and Andrew Wyatt)
- It Never Went Away from American Symphony: Performed by Jon Batiste (music and lyric by Jon Batiste and Dan Wilson)
- Wahzhazhe (A Song for My People) from Killers of the Flower Moon: Performed by Scott George and the Osage Singers (music and lyric by Scott George)
- What Was I Made For? from Barbie: Performed by Billie Eilish and Finneas O’Connell (music and lyric by Billie Eilish and Finneas O'Connell)
The Academy had run into a controversy last month after Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie didn’t make it to the best director and best actress shortlists. Gosling, who fetched a nomination for best supporting actor for Barbie, had expressed his disappointment over the snub.
The Oscars, hosted by Jimmy Kimmel, will be held at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on March 10. Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer leads the nominations with 13 nods, followed closely by Yorgos Lanthimos' Poor Things (11 nominations) and Martin Scorsese's Killers of the Flower Moon (10 nods).
