Lady Gaga Could End Up With 3 Oscar Nominations for “A Star is Born”; Making Her a 4x Oscar Nominee, Not to Mention Winner
“A Star Is Born” is looking to dominate this year’s Oscar race for best original song by campaigning three tracks for the prize. According to its FYC page, Warner Bros. is submitting “Shallow,” “I’ll Never Love Again,” and “Always Remember Us This Way” into the original song race for the 91st Academy Awards. Oscar rules state there can only be two nominated songs from one film, so Warner Bros. is hoping to maximize their chances by submitting three songs for consideration.
The Oscar for best original song is presented to the songwriters behind each track, which boasts well for Lady Gaga. The musician is a credited songwriter on all three “A Star Is Born” songs being submitted for the Oscar. Should Warner Bros. manage to get two songs nominated, Gaga could earn a total of three Oscar nominations next year since she’s also a frontrunner for a best actress nomination. The last film to earn two nominations in a single year was “La La Land” in 2016 for “City of Stars” and “Audition,” the former of which won the Oscar.
At this point in the Oscar race, “Shallow” is being eyed as an early frontrunner and a safe bet for a nomination.

Gaga is winning all the polls and enough of the critics and that should carry her over the top. I know there is a 'let's feel sorry for poor Glenn' campaign - but Gaga is fresh and young and deserving.

Did Bradley write any of the songs?

Bradley wrote (or maybe co-wrote) Black Eyes.
I thought I read recently (like this week) that only Shallow could be nominated because of the timing of the soundtrack release (Shallow was released early).

That is true for the Grammy's only. R6.

Glenn for the win followed closely by Melissa McCarthy. Gaga in 3rd but wins for best song.

Whatever happened to Oscar nominated songs that the average person could sing to? Everyone can sing "White Christmas" "Over The Rainbow" and "Que Sera Sera". No one can sing to "Shallow".

Further proof of the cheapening of the Oscars.
