All 5 of 2024’s Oscar-Nominated Songs to Be Performed on the Show
Written by djfrosty on February 28, 2024
All five of this year’s Oscar nominees for best original song will be performed live at the 2024 Oscars on March 10. Billie Eilish and Finneas will deliver “What Was I Made For?” from Barbie, which is widely expected to win the award. This will mark the third time in five years that the brother-and-sister pair have performed on the Oscars. They performed “Yesterday” as the In Memoriam song on the 2020 Oscars and their nominated “No Time to Die” on the 2022 ceremony. It went on to win the award.
Becky G will perform “The Fire Inside” from Flamin’ Hot, but won’t be joined by the song’s writer Diane Warren, who has accompanied the singer on two other of her other recent nominated songs, joining Laura Pausini on “Io sì (Seen)” from The Life Ahead and Sofia Carson on “Applause” from Tell It Like a Woman.
