2024 was a big year for dance<\/a> at the Oscars, including a history-making performance, a heart-pumping ensemble number, and a surprise addition to the \u201cIn Memoriam\u201d segment.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re still rooting<\/a> for a \u201cBest Choreography\u201d category as dance continues to be an integral part to each year\u2019s nominated films. But until then, we still enjoy seeing our beloved artform on the Dolby Theater stage.<\/p>\n

\u201cWahzhazhe\u201d from Killers of the Flower Moon<\/em><\/h3>\n

Eight Osage Nation dancers joined Scott George and the Osage Tribal Singers in a historic performance of \u201cWahzhazhe (A Song For My People)\u201d from Killers of the Flower Moon<\/em>. George made Oscars history as the first Native American to receive a nomination for best original song with \u201cWahzhazhe.\u201d He is also the first member of the Osage Nation to be nominated by the Academy.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As the dancers and singers followed the drum<\/a> against a sunset backdrop, they invited the international audience to witness a simultaneously intimate and boundless celebration. A groundbreaking performance, it marked the first time members of the Osage Nation, or of any indigenous community, has danced on the Oscars stage.<\/p>\n
