Oscars 2025: Controversy Over Tributes and Wins

The 2025 Academy Awards sparked controversy for both the In Memoriam segment and a James Bond musical tribute. Fans criticized the Oscars for omitting several notable stars such as Michelle Trachtenberg and Shannen Doherty from the In Memoriam tribute, despite honoring others like David Lynch and James Earl Jones. The Bond tribute, featuring performances by Raye and others, faced backlash for not inviting Adele to perform her own song, Skyfall, leading many to express dissatisfaction on social media. While Raye's rendition of Skyfall received mixed reviews, with some praising her performance, others believed only Adele should sing the song. In other highlights, Zoe Saldaña became the first Oscar winner of Dominican descent, winning Best Supporting Actress for her role in the Netflix film 'Emilia Pérez.'
