Here are different ways you can watch the 2023 Oscars online live stream or on TV. Rihanna and Lenny Kravitz will perform at the Oscars as Jimmy Kimmel hosts the Annual Academy Awards for the third time.
After months of anticipation, The Oscars 2023 are nearly here. The 95th Annual Academy awards will return to ABC on Sunday (March 12th) to celebrate Hollywood’s finest cinematic achievements of 2022. The ceremony will take place in the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles. The show is scheduled to begin at 8pm ET/5pm PT.
Elvis, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Everything Everywhere All at Once, The Whale, Top Gun: Maverick, Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery, The Fabelmans and Tár are among this year’s Oscar Nominated Films.

The indie darling hit ‘Everything Everywhere All at Once’ leads all films with 11 nominations, followed by The Banshees of Inisherin and German film ‘All Quiet on the Western Front’ with nine nominations apiece.
Lady Gaga’s “Hold My Hands” is nominated for the best original song alongside Rihanna’s “Lift Me Up,” “Applause” by Diane Warren, “Naatu Naatu” by M.M. Keeravani and Chandrabose and “This is a Life” by Ryan Lott, David Byrne, and Mitski.
Jimmy Kimmel will be hosting the Oscars for the third time. He had previously hosted the 2017 and 2018 Oscars, the former of which had the comical “La La Land” and “Moonlight” best picture screw-up. In 2018, he gave a killer monologue. The 2022 Oscars were hosted by the trio of Wanda Sykes, Regina Hall, and Amy Schumer although the event was memorable, thanks to the infamous Will Smith-Chris Rock altercation. Will Smith was hit with a 10-year ban from all events hosted by the Academy. This year’s event will have tighter security.
Lots to watch out for! The star-studded event is one not to miss out on.
