Lisa faces lip-sync claims at Oscars, fans suspect LVMH influence
BLACKPINK's Lisa stunned audiences at the 97th Academy Awards with her highly anticipated performance, but it quickly became the subject of controversy. As part of a James Bond tribute, she performed Live and Let Die, yet some viewers questioned whether she was singing live. Social media erupted with debates, with some critics accusing Lisa of lip-syncing. Tweets and circulated, suggesting her microphone was inactive at times, fueling speculation. This is how she sounds live, she is not a singer and she did lipsync again so as not to be embarrassed like that time. Lisa has to stop pretending to be a singer, it's worse because she is more and more exposed — hrlww (@28942993pap) March 3, 2025 from watching THIS to lisa's lip sync for your life performance is CRAZY 😭 #Oscars — . (@livyoncee) March 3, 2025 omg lisa really embarrassed herself at the OSCARS AHHAHAHAH no amount of dancers could distract the viewers from the voice ??/€?/)/ this was so bad omg doja and raye saved her ass — disappointed hater (@sapphiclibra707) March 3, 2025 Well her boyfriend Fredrick Arnaul (the ceo of LVMH) was one of the main sponsors of the oscars so we there you go that's why the rich white man's girlfriend was on stage lip syncing — nika (@itsallbora) March 3, 2025 yeah lisa's billionaire boyfriend paid for this performance cause what is the point.. — sine (@sinelggl) March 3, 2025 However, Lisa's fans were quick to defend her, sharing audience-recorded clips that appeared to confirm she was performing live. Many noted that award show performances are often pre-recorded or enhanced for broadcast, which may have led to confusion about her vocals. are they admitting that lisa is such a global star that even the Oscars had to reconsider their principles of no-lipsync policy just for her? she sounded too good that they had to accuse her of lipsyncing to cope with it. — aries🍋ᴷᴵᴷᴵ (@ilisayou_m) March 3, 2025 not a lisa stan but her haters are funny af like be serious 'AcAdEmY aWaRD iS nOt aLLoWeD tO LiPsYnC BuT SHe DeFiNitely pAy mOnEy tO dO sO' like, we can see the rage and the jealousy speaking. Breathe, relax, and pray that your fav perform at the oscars one day — liv (@ka11medaddy) March 3, 2025 I know your community always manipulated y'all to believe Lisa is lip sync. She's always Mic on, many fancam proved it. This time if you still saying she's lip sync, I think you need medical check. Or please continue appointment with your psychiatrist. — I🎀 (@BeCozOfKhun) March 3, 2025 Beyond the lip-sync debate, Lisa's Oscars appearance faced additional scrutiny. Some critics questioned why she was invited to perform when nominees for Best Original Song were not. Others speculated that her inclusion was linked to her boyfriend, Frédéric Arnault, the CEO of LVMH Watches, whose company sponsors the Academy Awards. Lisa, who has partnerships with luxury brands under LVMH, has not commented on the claims. Despite the controversy, Lisa's Oscars performance marked a milestone for K-pop's global influence, and she received widespread praise for her stage presence. The discussion continues to divide opinions online, with supporters celebrating her achievement and detractors questioning her role at the prestigious event.

Cillian Murphy fans baffled by Oscar appearance after he skips the red carpet
Cillian Murphy left fans confused after skipping the red carpet at the 2025 Oscars. The Oppenheimer actor, 48, who won Best Actor for his portrayal of the physicist in 2024, appeared to present the gong to Adrien Brody for his performance in The Brutalist at the 97th Academy Awards. Murphy initially panicked fans with many wondering if he'd 'forgotten' to attend Hollywood's biggest night as he failed to walk the red carpet ahead of the ceremony. 'Where is Cillian Murphy?' one person questioned on X/Twitter, alongside an image of someone throwing a chair in anger. 'Cillian Murphy does in fact NOT stun at the Oscars,' added another fan as they mourned his absence on the red carpet ahead of the ceremony. However, the show's host, Conan O'Brien, later introduced the Peaky Blinders star onto the stage for the Best Actor prize-giving, joking they have the same genetics but Murphy is more attractive. 'I WAS SITTING LIKE A FOLLY IN MY LIVING ROOM FOR 4 HOURS, WAITING FOR CILLIAN MURPHY TO COME OUT AT THE OSCARS AND IT JUST COMES OUT WHEN I'M IN THE BATHROOM!' one surprised fan revealed on social media. After announcing his Peaky Blinders co-star as the Best Actor winner, Murphy embraced Brody in a long hug, with many viewers wondering if they would re-create the winner's 2003 shock kiss with Halle Berry. 'I can't believe Adrien Brody didn't kiss Cillian Murphy,' one person wrote on social media. 'That would've healed this nation.' In his acceptance speech, Brody spoke about his own life story, and called out racism and antisemitism, with several viewers joking the actor's speech was 'longer than The Brutalist '. 'Thank you got for this blessed life,' Brody said as he took the podium. 'If I may just humbly begin by giving thanks for the tremendous outpouring of love that I felt from this world and every individual that has treated me with respect and appreciation. 'I feel so fortunate,' he continued. 'Acting is a very fragile profession. It looks very glamorous and in certain moments it is, but the one thing that I've gained having the privilege to come back here is to have some perspective. No matter where you are in your career, no matter what you've accomplished, it can all go away.' Elsewhere on the night, Sean Baker's sex worker dramedy Anora was the big winner, taking home prizes for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Editing, Best Original Screenplay, and Best Actress (for Mikey Madison).
