Oscars 2025 Honors James Bond Legacy with Star-Studded Musical Tribute

The ceremony featured performances by Lisa, Doja Cat, and Raye, celebrating the franchise's history as Amazon takes creative control.

The 2025 Oscars paid tribute to James Bond producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson, who are stepping back after decades of stewardship.
Performers included Blackpink's Lisa, Doja Cat, and Raye, who delivered renditions of iconic Bond theme songs like 'Live and Let Die,' 'Diamonds Are Forever,' and 'Skyfall.'
Margaret Qualley opened the segment with a dance performance, followed by Halle Berry introducing the tribute and reflecting on the franchise's legacy.
The tribute coincides with Amazon MGM Studios taking creative control of the Bond franchise, following a reported $1 billion deal.
Broccoli and Wilson, who inherited the franchise in 1995, will remain co-owners but plan to focus on other projects and charitable endeavors.
