Lady Gaga will probably by honored.
The pop star, who impressed many with a performance of The Sound of Music at last year’s Oscars ceremony, is intent on returning to the Dolby Theater next month to perform her ballad Till It Happens to You, which appears in the campus rape documentary The Hunting Ground.
Gaga, together with the song’s co-writer Diane Warren and film-makers Kirby Dick and Amy Ziering, have been campaigning in recent weeks on behalf of the song, and the effort has struck a chord with Academy voters. The Guardian spotted a number of members visibly tearing during a recent performance of the song in Beverly Hills.
