Lady Gaga’s arrival on the 2023 Oscars red carpet — actually, the champagne-colored carpet — hasn’t gone unnoticed. Not only because of her attendance at the gala, taking into account that it was not scheduled, but because of the great moment that she has starred in when picking up a photographer who has stumbled in the crowd from the ground. The interpreter of songs like Pokerface or Rain on has once again shown me her humility and has been widely applauded on social networks for her gesture with the photojournalist.
A few minutes before the ceremony began, Lady Gaga arrived at the Dolby Theater in Hollywood, in Los Angeles (California), to finally attend the 95th edition of the popular Oscar Awards on Sunday night. An attendance that was not expected at the beginning, and that, as Variety has subsequently reported, has been a decision made “at the last minute.” That is why the expectation has been maximum when the also actress has arrived at the place.
A host of photographers crowded around her as Gaga, 36, posed for photos and walked with her gaze straight ahead. At that moment, one of the photographers stumbled and fell to the ground, creating a stir that caused the singer to turn and immediately run to help him. A gesture that has shocked those present, since she has come out almost as a reflex act.
Social networks have applauded his reaction. “Diva and good person,” writes a user on Twitter. “What a queen,” says another Internet user. “Gestures that make a difference,” says another. “Queen with all the letters”, publishes another account. “Admirable!” Can be read in several other publications. An incident that has finally come to nothing, since the photojournalist has risen by his own foot. I’m sure he’ll never forget the moment he starred in, and he’ll always remember the moment Lady Gaga lifted him off the ground.
The reappearance of the singer at the ceremony has fueled the theory that she will finally perform during the gala to interpret Hold My Hand. This is also reported by Variety magazine. Gaga’s performance was one of those expected for this ceremony, although the Hollywood Academy has not confirmed it. Gaga did not plan to attend the gala since she is currently shooting the movie Joker: Folie à Deux. In fact, the producer of the ceremony, Glenn Weiss, had said on March 8 that Lady Gaga would not perform.
Finally, according to the aforementioned publication, she will, and her performance thus joins that of other nominees such as Rihanna, with the song Lift Me Up, from the movie Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, or Sofia Carson and Diane Warren to interpret the Applause theme, from the movie Tell It like a Woman. Another of the expected performances of the night is that of Chandrabose to interpret Naatu Naatu, the main theme of the Indian film RRR, the first Indian song nominated in this category
