Sam Smith has been disassociating himself from his sexuality for three years and SUDDENLY he's proud of being the first open gay to win an Oscar (he isn't ).
Thank god this dreary campaign is over though. Stef needs to go into hiding now until she releases her single. I for one am getting sick and tired of her self important ass being at every award show, and I'm a fan
Gagas hoarking drunk man vocals were gross yet again if you mute her while she's singing it looks like shes burping out hot beer breath .
Why is her piano so often inaudible? Same as bowie performance, shes like going nuts on the keys but theres barely any piano sound. It just seems pointless
1. You know, this is the first time in Oscar history that an all-female songwriting collaboration has won for Best Song.
2. This is the second year in a row that a socially conscious song has won this award. This song from a documentary about campus rape, The Hunting Ground, follows last year's winner, "Glory" from the civil rights drama Selma. This is the first time in Oscar history that socially conscious songs have won back-to-back.
3. Gaga was just two years old in 1988 when Warren landed her first Oscar nomination for "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now" from Mannequin.
4. Warren lost seven times at the Oscars before she finally won this year. Only four other songwriters have had to endure so many losses before they finally took home their first Oscar. Randy Newman lost 15 times before he finally won for "If I Didn't Have You" from Monsters, Inc. Sammy Cahn lost nine times and Jule Styne lost eight times before they finally won for "Three Coins in the Fountain." Johnny Mercer lost eight times before he finally won for "On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe."
5. Warren is the second songwriter with that surname to win an Oscar for Best Song. Harry Warren (no relation) won three times, for "Lullaby of Broadway," "You'll Never Know" and the aforementioned "On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe."
6. Both Gaga and Warren are now half-way to an EGOT. Gaga has won six Grammys; Warren, one. Now they each just need an Emmy and a Tony.
