11 Music Artists Who Took Home Oscars
The Oscars are just around the corner, and we can’t wait for the film industry’s biggest night of the year. And while we can’t say we have any clue what to expect since there will be no host, it could end up being a historic night—particularly for music.
This year, Lady Gaga became the first person to be nominated for Best Actress and Best Song, marking a big crossover in her career quite literally. But Gaga isn’t the only music artist to receive recognition for her work in film. We’re taking a look back at artists who have won Oscars, whether for songs they have contributed to films or for their own acting efforts.
Update: She did it! Lady Gaga took home the Oscar for Best Original Song for A Star Is Born's "Shallow," alongside co-writers and musicians Mark Ronson, Andrew Wyatt, and Anthony Rossomando. She now joins the rather elite list!
