Jennifer Aniston will present the SAG Life Achievement Award to Barbra Streisand at the 30th annual Screen Actors Guild Awards on Saturday, Feb. 24.
Idris Elba, a five-time Emmy nominee for Luther and The Big C, will open the show, which will stream live globally on Netflix at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT from the Shrine Auditorium & Expo Hall in Los Angeles.

Streisand won’t be the only Billboard Hot 100 and Billboard 200-topping artist on stage at the Shrine. Billie Eilish, a star of Swarm, is scheduled to present.

SAG-AFTRA president Fran Drescher, whose “Fran” Fine character on The Nanny was a Streisand superfan, is also set to present, as are Brendan Fraser and Jessica Chastain, who won SAG Awards on last year’s show; and Cillian Murphy and Robert Downey Jr., who are nominated this year for their work in Oppenheimer.

The SAG Awards annually celebrates outstanding motion picture and television performances of the previous year. Voted on by SAG-AFTRA’s membership of 119,000-plus performers, the SAG Awards has the largest voting body on the awards circuit.

All four of the film acting winners at last year’s SAG Awards went on to win Oscars – Brendan Fraser for The Whale, and Michelle Yeoh, Ke Huy Quan and Jamie Lee Curtis, all for Everything Everywhere All at Once.

Aniston has won SAG Awards for both comedy (Friends) and drama (The Morning Show). She is nominated for two more SAG Awards this year for The Morning Show.

This year’s show will be produced by Silent House Productions in partnership with SAG-AFTRA.

Here’s a story about Streisand, Frank Sinatra and other Life Achievement Award recipients who have landed Hot 100 hits. The list includes some artists you wouldn’t expect, such as Clint Eastwood and Sally Field.

When Barbra Streisand accepts the Life Achievement Award at the 2024 Screen Actors Guild Awards on Saturday (Feb. 24), she’ll become the 61st recipient of that career-capping honor. She’ll also join a smaller subset of SAG Life Achievement Award winners who have landed hits on the Billboard Hot 100. That group includes Frank Sinatra, one […]

That’s a fast turnaround, but one songwriting team and one individual songwriter did even better, winning back-to-back Oscars.

Lenny Kravitz let the music talk, then recounted some of the righteous steps he made along the way in his music career, as the rocker was presented with the Music Icon Award at the 2024 People’s Choice Awards.On a night when Taylor Swift dominated with four awards, but was unable to attend due to her current touring commitments in Australia, it was Kravitz who rocked the house with a mini-set of his classic hits, and an emotional speech.

Kravitz and Co. took off with “Fly Away,” and cruised into medley that included ““TK421,” It Ain’t Over Til It’s Over,” “Let Love Rule” and Are You Gonna Go My Way.”

Following the incendiary set, triple Grammy Award winner Victoria Monét present Kravitz with the silverware.

Trending on Billboard

Considering the meaning of the word “icon,” Kravitz remarks, “It means a lot of things to a lot of people, to me it means you’ve made an indelible mark by being who God created you to be. And, daring to be different.”

More than 35 years ago, before the 11 albums, 40 million records sold, and four Grammys won, Kravitz was a wanted man. And many of those guidance officers, they wanted to change him. “When I was first coming up a lot of people offered me a lot of deals but they wanted me to change. My music wasn’t black enough, it wasn’t white enough. It didn’t fit nicely inside a box. Or sound like what was on the radio at the time,” he explains. “And I turned down the money and the glitzy promises of fame and stardom because I couldn’t live with myself doing something inauthentic.”

An icon, he considers, “is someone who inspires and teaches others to believe in themselves and their direction whatever that direction is.”

Kravitz’s trajectory has “never been about how many records I sell, or how many awards I win, it’s not about trying to write hits, or being calculated or formulaic. Its about enjoying and being grateful for the journey and using the gifts that God gave you and that journey goes how it goes. And it will continue because I’m just doing me.”The musical journey won’t stop anytime soon. “I was a fan of music long before I was a musician,” he continues. “And my mantra now is the same as it was 35 years ago: never follow the trends, set your own pace and recognize that the best is here right now in front of you.”During her opening statement, Monét enthused, “We are here to celebrate an undefinable, undeniable, once in a lifetime genius, he is a force.”

Kravitz, she reckons, “defies any singular description. Father, singer, songwriter, producer, kick-ass stage performer, actor, designer, fashion maven, philanthropist, visionary and the king of letting love rule.”

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have been cheering each other on for months on their respective turfs, but at the 2024 People’s Choice Awards, they were both declared winners. Swift won four awards — female artist, pop artist, concert tour and social celebrity. Kelce won one — athlete of the year.
Actor and author Simu Liu hosted the show, which aired live on Sunday (Feb. 18) on NBC, Peacock and E! from the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, Calif. Liu was nominated in the movie performance category for his role in Barbie, but lost to America Ferrera.

Olivia Rodrigo, Nicki Minaj, Ice Spice and Jimmy Fallon each won two awards. Rodrigo took song (“Vampire”) and album (Guts); Minaj took hip-hop artist and collaboration song (the latter for “Barbie World,” a collab with Ice Spice featuring Aqua); Ice Spice won that award and also new artist; Fallon won nighttime talk show (The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon) and host (for That’s My Jam).

Trending on Billboard

Three Billboard Hot 100-topping artists won awards in TV categories. Billie Eilish won TV performance for Swarm. Selena Gomez took female TV star for Only Murders in the Building. Kelly Clarkson won daytime talk show for The Kelly Clarkson Show.

Barbie won five awards — movie, comedy movie, male and female movie star (Ryan Gosling and Margot Robbie) and movie performance (Ferrera).

Robbie’s win for female movie star makes up, a tiny bit, for the fact that she was passed over for an Oscar nomination for best actress. Likewise, Ice Spice’s win for new artist helps make up for the rapper’s Grammy loss in the best new artist category.

The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes won two awards — action movie and action movie star for Rachel Zegler.

Only Murders in the Building, The Last of Us and The Kardashians also won two awards each. Only Murders won comedy show and female TV star for Gomez. The Last of Us won drama show and male TV star for Pedro Pascal. The Kardashians won reality show and reality TV star for Khloé Kardashian (who beat sister Kim).

Jennifer Aniston presented the Comedy Icon Award to Adam Sandler. Victoria Monét presented the Music Icon Award to Lenny Kravitz, who performed on the show. Lainey Wilson and Kylie Minogue also performed.

There were 45 categories this year representing movies, television, music and pop culture. That includes five new categories: male country artist, female country artist, male Latin artist, female Latin artist and concert tour. Country and Latin were the only music genres with separate categories for men and women. In pop, hip-hop and R&B, men and women competed against each other.

The 2024 People’s Choice Awards show was produced by Den of Thieves. Jesse Ignjatovic, Evan Prager and Barb Bialkowski executive produced.

Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer was the big winner at the 2024 BAFTA Film Awards. The ceremony took place on Sunday (Feb. 18) at London’s Royal Festival Hall. David Tennant, star of Doctor Who, served as host.
Oppenheimer won seven awards, including best picture, best director (Christopher Nolan), best actor and supporting actor (Cillian Murphy and Robert Downey Jr.) and best original score (Ludwig Göransson).

Yorgos Lanthimos’ Poor Things won five awards, including best actress (Emma Stone). Jonathan Glazer’s The Zone of Interest collected three. Alexander Payne’s The Holdovers took two.

Two individuals were double winners on the night — Nolan (best director and best picture, as a producer) and Glazer for The Zone of Interest (best British film and best film not in the English language).

Trending on Billboard

Most of the top BAFTA winners are expected to also win at the Oscars on March 10. Among them: Da’Vine Joy Randolph, who won best supporting actress for The Holdovers.One acting race remains too close to call at the Oscars. Despite his BAFTA loss, Paul Giamatti is still very much in the Oscar race for best actor for The Holdovers.

Göransson’s win for best original score marks his first BAFTA Award. The BAFTA winner for original score has gone on to win the Oscar in that category in nine of the least 10 years. If Göransson does take the Oscar, it will be his second win in that category. He won five years ago for Black Panther.

Killers of the Flower Moon was shut out, despite nine nominations. Other films with five or more nods that were blanked were Maestro (seven nods), All of Us Strangers (six) and Barbie and Saltburn (five each). (The BAFTAs don’t have a category for best original song, a category in which Barbie probably would have prevailed — just as it expected to at the Oscars.)

Sandra Hüller was nominated for both lead actress (Anatomy of a Fall) and supporting actress (The Zone of Interest), but lost both awards.

20 Days in Mariupol won best documentary, besting a pair of music docs — American Symphony, about Jon Batiste, and Wham!, about the 1980s chart-topping pop duo.

Sophie Ellis-Bextor performed “Murder on the Dancefloor,” her 2001 song which soundtracked a racy scene in Saltburn.

Grammy telecast performance videos are rolling out on YouTube and other sites following a 10-day window in which most were available for viewing only on select sites.
All cleared Grammy performances were previously approved for posting on Grammy.com and CBS.com as well as on The Recording Academy, CBS and artists’ and labels’ Instagram and Facebook accounts for 10 days, according to the Academy. After this 10-day run, they are approved to also post on other platforms including YouTube. This is the third year the Academy has had a “first-dibs” deal with Meta, which owns and operates Facebook and Instagram.

The Recording Academy posted the vast majority of Grammy-night performances on Grammy.com on Feb. 6, two days after the ceremony at Crypto.com Arena in L.A. The videos are featured in a post headlined “Watch All the Performances From The 2024 GRAMMYs: Tracy Chapman & Luke Combs, Billie Eilish, Olivia Rodrigo & More.”

That post included all but three performances from the three-and-a-half-hour Grammy telecast. Missing are Travis Scott’s “My Eyes,” “I Know?” and “So Fe!n” (the latter song featuring Playboi Carti); Billy Joel’s “You May Be Right” (featuring Laufey); and Stevie Wonder and Tony Bennett’s “For Once in My Life” and “The Best Is Yet to Come” from the extended In Memoriam segment.

“We get permission from artists and their teams prior to posting any post-show performances,” says an Academy spokesperson. “We do not obligate these [permissions as a condition for] performing on the telecast. Approvals are all secured following the live telecast for individual performances.”

Another Joel performance (his new single “Turn the Lights Back On”) is in the bundle of videos that went up on Grammy.com. Additionally, three other tributes from the extended In Memoriam segment are included: Annie Lennox’s “Nothing Compares 2 U” (featuring Wendy & Lisa), Fantasia Barrino’s “Proud Mary” and Jon Batiste’s “Ain’t No Sunshine,” “Lean on Me” and “Optimistic.” Missing completely is Scott, who was nominated for best rap album for Utopia, but lost, in an upset, to Killer Mike’s Michael. Scott’s track record at the Grammys currently stands at 0-10.

Two songs that were performed at this year’s Premiere Ceremony, the event preceding the Grammy telecast where the vast majority of awards are presented, are also in the bundle of clips available on Grammy.com. They are “Luna de Xelajú” by Gaby Moreno & El David Aguilar and a cover of Prince & the Revolution’s “Let’s Go Crazy” by Pentatonix, J. Ivy, Larkin Poe, Jordin Sparks and Sheila E.

In addition to the videos already mentioned, the bundle also includes Tracy Chapman & Luke Combs’ “Fast Car” (which Chapman previously performed at the close of the 1989 Grammy telecast), Joni Mitchell’s “Both Sides, Now” (which, remarkably, was her first performance ever on the Grammys), U2’s “Atomic Bomb” (live from the Sphere in Las Vegas) and Billie Eilish’s “What Was I Made For?” (which she is expected to perform again at the Oscars on Mar. 10).

Also in the bundle are Dua Lipa’s “Training Season” and “Houdini”; Miley Cyrus’ “Flowers”; SZA’s “Snooze” and “Kill Bill”; Olivia Rodrigo’s “vampire”; and a three-song set from Burna Boy, 21 Savage and Brandy: “On Form,” “City Boys” and “Sittin’ on Top of the World.”

Grammy telecast performances weren’t widely available after Music’s Biggest Night until 1994, when the Recording Academy released 47 of them on a four-CD set entitled Grammy’s Greatest Moments through Atlantic Records. There were corresponding videotapes released (through A*Vision Entertainment) for the first two CDs in the set. I wrote the liner notes for those four CDs, which included such prized performances as Aretha Franklin’s “Bridge Over Troubled Water” (from the first live Grammy telecast in 1971), Barbra Streisand & Neil Diamond’s “You Don’t Bring Me Flowers” (1980) and Tina Turner’s “What’s Love Got to Do With It” (1985).

In 1996, a live performance from that year’s Grammy telecast was released as a single that became a top 10 hit on the Billboard Hot 100. Alanis Morissette’s “You Oughta Know,” recorded live on Feb. 28 at the 38th annual Grammy Awards at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles, was released as a double-A-sided single with “You Learn.” The single debuted and peaked at No. 6 that July 27.
