Like every edition, the highest film awards leave memorable moments at each ceremony. One of the parts that stood out the most was Rihanna’s presentation at the 2023 Oscars.
The singer performed “Lift Me Up”, from the movie “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever”, a tribute song to the protagonist of the saga Chadwick Boseman, who died in 2020.
The theme was nominated for Best Original Song, although the award went to “Naatu naatu”.
Another star singer who was at the ceremony was Lady Gaga.

Brendan Fraser’s exciting speech at the Oscars
The night had one of its most emotional moments when Brendan Fraser won the 2023 Oscar statuette for best actor for his portrayal of Charlie in filmmaker Darren Aronofsky’s film, The Whale (The Whale).
Although he was pointed out by specialists as one of the favorites to win the statuette, in the same category, the actor competed against Austin Butler (Elvis), who was also one of those highlighted by professionals and who displaced him at the Golden Globes. In turn, Colin Farrell (the spirits of the island), Bill Nighy (Living) and Paul Mescal (AfterSun) were also within the competition.
Taking the stage at the Dolby Theater, Fraser quipped, “So that’s what the multiverse feels like.” And he added: “Thank you to the Academy for this honor and to the A24 studio for making a movie like this.” In turn, she thanked the film’s director, Darren Aronofsky.
“They have made their heart the size of a whale so that we can see what is in our souls. I am honored to be named with you in this category,” she continued.
“I started in this 30 years ago and things have not been easy, but I did have something that I did not appreciate until I stopped having it. Thank you for this recognition. I would not have had this without the rest of the team,” he added. And he concluded with a thank you to his children, his manager and his partner, Jeanne Moore.
