At the 2024 Oscars on March 10, rapping and singing firebrand Becky G performed a blazing version of "The Fire Inside," from the 2023 comedy drama "Flamin’ Hot,’ the directorial debut of Eva Longoria. The song was written by GRAMMY winner and 15-time nominee Diane Warren. (A clip of the song will be added to this article shortly.)
At the ceremony, G didn’t disappoint, turning in a scorching rendition of the song, with apt digital flames billowing behind her and her accompanists.
“Nothing can hold you back/ No one can kill your vibe/ When you got the fire inside,“ G sang with authority and aplomb. “And oh, you're gonna own this life/ Cause you got the fire inside/ 'Cause you got the fire, you got the fire.“
At song’s end, Warren hollered her approval. What it must have been like to see your creation transpire on the 2024 Oscars stage, whether for the first time or after many.
Billie Eilish and FINNEAS won the Oscar for Original Song for "What Was I Made For?" [From The Motion Picture Barbie] at the 2024 Academy Awards.
