Lady Gaga’s arrival at the 2023 Oscars has not 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. Although, if something has stood out in her attendance, it has been her impeccable performance, in which she has once again demonstrated the booming voice that she possesses and with which she also wanted to send a most emotional message . She did it with a clean face and singing a cappella.
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.
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, the soundtrack of Top Gun: Maverick. This is also reported by Variety magazine. Gaga’s performance was one of those expected for this ceremony, and although the Hollywood Academy did not finally confirm it, it did take place. The interpreter of themes such as Bad Romance or Judas took the stage of the theater to interpret the song a cappella.
In the first seconds of the also actress on stage, it could be seen how she appeared on stage without a drop of makeup. A very different image than previously seen on the champagne-colored carpet, where she wore spectacular makeup and a gorgeous Versace dress. No trace of her was left of her outfit either, since she went on stage with a simple look: ripped jeans, a basic black T-shirt and sneakers. An image that she, accompanied by a guitarist and a pianist, conveyed humility, closeness and sensitivity. Totally in line with the speech she gave before starting to sing.
“We all need each other. We need heroes. Many of you will realize that, even if you are cracked inside, you can find your own hero or heroine,” said the singer, to immediately demonstrate, once again, that she did not it takes much more than a guitar, a piano and a big voice to get an entire theater up and running.
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, it has happened. And it has been big.
