This time is no different. Ahead of the big day, we bring to you all the information that is necessary so that you are looped in before the Oscars night.Hollywood’s most prestigious night, the Oscars, organised by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS), is here.

Who is performing?:

The best song nominees will all perform, including Barbie’s Ryan Gosling and Mark Ronson with I’m Just Ken. Gosling gave a hilarious reaction to the song’s win at the Critics’ Choice Awards earlier this year – bemused and almost suspicious.

Billie Eilish will also sing her Barbie track, the favourite to win, What Was I Made For?

Who is this year’s host?:

Comedian and talk show host Jimmy Kimmel will host the Oscars for the fourth time in March 2024. Including his stint at the helm last year, which marked a smooth return after the chaos of 2022’s ceremony when Will Smith slapped one of the awards presenters, Chris Rock.

Kimmel joked when his return was announced: “I always dreamed of hosting the Oscars exactly four times.” We bet it’s not his last, though.
