They’re not real. I refuse to believe it

Like Mothers like daughters🥺

Cynthia’s breath control is insane, her enunciation from her O’s to E’s are effortless, like I got goosebumps!!

I have no idea how the people in attendance have dry faces bcuz I've watched this five times and I'm dehydrated from crying.

Por qué estoy llorando?!!!!!!

oh god, first time i cry while watching a live music performance

The opening performance by Cynthia Erivo and Ariana DeBose at the 95th Academy Awards was a powerful and moving tribute to the power of cinema. Erivo's rendition of "Lift Me Up" from "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever" was a beautiful and soulful performance, while DeBose's energetic and vibrant performance of "We Are Lady Parts" from the film of the same name was a celebration of diversity and inclusivity. The two performers came together at the end of the performance to sing a powerful rendition of "Sister Act" from the film of the same name, a fitting tribute to the legacy of the late and great Whoopi Goldberg. The opening performance was a perfect way to start the ceremony, and it set the tone for an evening of celebration and recognition of the best in film.
