Lady Gaga wows Oscars in fresh off the runway Versace gown (CNN)

Lady Gaga took the term "fresh off the runway" to another level at the Oscars by arriving in a gown Gigi Hadid had debuted for Versace just three days ...

She is also one of the few people to receive nominations in both music and acting categories, having been nominated for her lead performance in the latter movie. In keeping with her stripped-back rendition of the song, she kept things simple in a black T-shirt, ripped jeans and a pair of Converse sneakers. It was an eventful entrance for the star, who at one point rushed to help a photographer who had taken a fall while brushing past her. She also opted for a more natural look, removing her make-up. She also put her own spin on the look with diamond-laden Tiffany & Co. Choosing to skip last month's Milan Fashion Week, Donatella Versace instead sent slick, 90s-inspired black tailoring down a runway framed by the Hollywood Hills.

There’s heroes all around us in unassuming places but you might find that you can be your own hero even if you feel broken inside.” Watch footage of the performance below. She lost out to Naatu Naatu, Kaala Bhairava and Rahul Sipligunj for their song, ‘Naatu Naatu’ (from RRR).

Oscars Director-Producer on Lady Gaga's "Meaningful" Performance ... (Hollywood Reporter)

THR caught up with Glenn Weiss for a brief download about the heartfelt speeches, the five song performances and his take on the ratings conversation.

What we wanted to do was go out and execute a show that people would really like and a show people would talk about. That’s what we really hope to do with the show — get people to not read lists and that kind of thing and get them really speaking passionately from the heart. But it will be really great not to have a Zoom meeting first thing in the morning. She was really appropriate about the fact that this is a meaningful song to her and she wanted to really strip it down and do it not as an “Oscar performance,” but as her. The Oscars have kept us tied up for months, and not in a bad way. But we got to a place this year where people were really emotional and they did speak from the heart. That is the backbone of what Ricky and I do as producers on the Tony Awards, we really try to make the pieces become pieces unto themselves. The speeches were passionate and from the heart. We wanted to keep it entertaining, and we hope we accomplished that. He kept the show moving, but he also kept it lighthearted and entertaining enough that it didn’t feel all too serious. Happy with the winners too, and some really great moments and speeches. Really happy that the show went off the way it did.
