Let's face it: the first hour of the Oscars, aside from Neil Patrick Harris' opening number, was a bit dull. There were awards for makeup and costumes, but they weren't necessarily the biggest of prizes that will be handed out tonight.
Thankfully we got to the fantastic craziness of the live performance of "Everything Is Awesome," a Best Original Song nominee from The Lego Movie. Tegan and Sara were joined by the Lonely Island Boys for a bright and energetic performance full of rainbows, Batman, and synchronized frenetic dancing that this awards show desperately needed.
And for a brief moment, everything was, truly, awesome.
We're here to shed some clarity
One of our core beliefs here at Vox is that everyone needs and deserves access to the information that helps them understand the world, regardless of whether they can pay for a subscription. With the 2024 election on the horizon, more people are turning to us for clear and balanced explanations of the issues and policies at stake. We’re so grateful that we’re on track to hit 85,000 contributions to the Vox Contributions program before the end of the year, which in turn helps us keep this work free. We need to add 2,500 contributions this month to hit that goal.
Will you make a contribution today to help us hit this goal and support our policy coverage? Any amount helps.
