Oscars
2024
Update:
The
96th
Oscars,
set
to
air
live
on
March
10,
is
primed
to
close
this
awards
season
with
a
grand
celebration
at
the
Dolby
Theatre
at
Ovation
Hollywood.
The
spotlight
of
the
evening
is
expected
to
shine
on
"Oppenheimer," anticipated
to
clinch
around
eight
awards,
making
it
the
night's
big
victor.
Despite
high
hopes,
"Barbie"
is
projected
to
secure
a
modest
second
place
with
two
Oscars,
while
no
other
contender
is
poised
to
bag
more
than
a
single
award.
However,
the
Oscars
are
known
for
their
unpredictability,
hinting
at
possible
surprises.
Performances
to
Watch

Highlighting
the
evening,
all
five

grace
the
stage
with
live
performances.

Eilish

Finneas
are
set
to
perform
"What
Was
I
Made
For?"
from
"Barbie,"
a

Best
Original
Song.

marks
their
third
Oscar
performance
in
five
years,
showcasing
their
consistent
presence
at
the
ceremony.
Becky
G
will
deliver
"The
Fire
Inside"
from
"Flamin' Hot,"
marking
a
significant
moment
as
her
first
solo
performance
at
the
Oscars,
following
a
group
act
two
years
prior.
Ryan
Gosling,
alongside
Mark
Ronson
and
Andrew
Wyatt,
will
perform
"I'm
Just
Ken"
from

Oscar
