Beyoncé Receives Her First Oscar Nomination
Following the success of her song "Be Alive" for the 2021 film King Richard, Beyoncé has received her first Oscar nomination for Best Original Song.
Beyoncé has just been nominated for her first Oscar for her song "Be Alive" from the film King Richard, a biopic about American tennis coach Richard Williams, played by Will Smith, the father of tennis stars Venus and Serena Williams.
In "Be Alive," which plays in the movie's end credits, Beyoncé sings about the intense and inspiring path that the Williams sisters walked together in their ascent to the tennis world elite.
The "Formation" singer is a world-renowned artist, performer, and award show record-breaker. Last year, she became the Grammy's most-winning female artist and most-winning singer across both categories.
Now, Beyoncé can add her first Oscar nomination, one of cinema's most prestigious awards, to her already impressive resumé. “Be Alive” is nominated in the 2022 Oscars alongside numerous box office hits like “Dos Oruguitas” by Lin-Manuel Miranda from Encanto, “Down to Joy” by Van Morrison from Belfast, “No Time to Die” by Billie Eilish from No Time to Die, and “Somehow You Do” by Diane Warren from Four Good Days.
