Bradley Cooper, Lady Gaga to perform Oscar-nominated 'Shallow' from A Star is Born at 91st Academy Awards

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has announced the list of performances that will be taking place during the 2019 Oscars ceremony in a series of tweets. The ceremony will include performances of a number of Best Original Song nominees.

This year, it seems that The Academy has embarked on one of the most radical reinventions in the long standing history of the Oscars ceremony, by reportedly going host-less for the first time in 30 years. Instead, it may assemble  as many cast members as possible from Marvel’s Avengers franchise, to serve as presenters.
