Beyonce, Billie Eilish, Reba McEntire Among Performers Confirmed For Oscar Show, But No Van Morrison; Expect ‘Bruno’ Production Number
As Deadline broke yesterday, Beyonce has now been officially confirmed to sing in one of the slots of Best Original Song contenders on the 94th Oscars. As noted in the Deadline article speculation is her performance of her nominated song (co-written with DIXSON) called “Be Alive” from King Richard will take place via satellite from a Compton tennis court. That aspect however was not in the Academy’s long awaited announcement of plans for the Best Song presentations. As my colleague Mike Fleming noted the formal announcement would come after voting closed, and indeed it did exactly at 5pm PT which is the same moment ballots had to be in to Pricewaterhouse. The campaign is over. All that is left now is the show itself.
