Rihanna is set to take the stage to perform “Lift Me Up” at the 2023 Academy Awards.
On Thursday, Glenn Weiss and Ricky Kirshner, the executive producers and showrunners of the 95th Oscars, announced that the Grammy-winning singer would perform her Oscar-nominated song from “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” during the star-studded awards ceremony.
Rih teamed up with Tems, Ryan Coogler, and Ludwig Göransson on “Lift Me Up” to memorialize Chadwick Boseman, who passed away in August 2020.
