Rewatch Lady Gaga's Stunning 2023 Oscars Performance of 'Hold My Hand'
Lady Gaga pulled off an incredible last-minute performance at the 95th Academy Awards.
Mother Monster is in the building.
After it had been confirmed by multiple reports that Lady Gaga was not going to perform her Oscar-nominated song “Hold My Hand” (Top Gun: Maverick) at the 95th Academy Awards, the singer surprised audiences with a same-day announcement that she would, in fact, perform at the award ceremony.
Even though Gaga is currently in deep production mode for the Joker: Folie à Deux sequel – in which she will play the character of Harley Quinn – the popstar and actress took some time from her schedule to attend the 2023 Oscars and honor Top Gun: Maverick with a dazzling performance of “Hold My Hand.” The song was nominated in the Best Original Song category this year along with “Lift Me Up” (Black Panther: Wakanda Forever), “Naatu Naatu” (RRR), “Applause” (Tell It Like a Woman), and “This Is a Life” (Everything Everywhere All At Once).
