Shine bright like a diamond! Rihanna made a spectacular appearance at the 2023 Oscars, performing her award-winning song 'Lift Me Up' from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.
The superstar, who is pregnant with her second child, wore a black jumpsuit with diamante fringe. The 35-year-old wowed viewers and the audience with the performance which saw her standing on a platform which rose into the air as she sang.
Other performers on the evening included David Byrne, Stephanie Hsu and Son Lux, who performed ‘This Is a Life’ from the hotly-tipped film Everything Everywhere All at Once, which is nominated in nine different categories, and Sofia Carson and Diane Warren for the track 'Applause’ from the movie Tell It Like A Woman.
The song marks Diane's 14th Oscar nomination; she has never won a little gold statue.
Indian performers Rahul Sipligunj and Kaala Bhairava will also perform the viral hit song ‘Naatu Naatu’ from the film RRR.
