How Lady Gaga Made History at The 2019 Oscars

Lady Gaga has made history after becoming the first person to have won an OscarGrammyBAFTA and Golden Globe within a single year.

Last night, the singer-turned-actress took home the coveted golden statue for Best Original Song for ‘Shallow’, from hit film A Star is Born.

In her acceptance speech, the 32-year-old thanked co-star and director Bradley Cooper for “believing in us”.

“There is not a single person on the planet that could sing this song but you,” she added.

Then, in a move which pleased die-hard fans across the globe, Lady Gaga joined Cooper in a memorable live rendition of the award-winning song on stage.

To a roar of applause, the duo took to the stage hand-in-hand with Cooper singing from a stool throughout the performance before later joining Gaga at the piano for a more intimate moment.
