It has been nominated for best original song, marking Rihanna's first Oscar nomination. The show will be hosted by Jimmy Kimmel. In early February 2023, Rihanna performed at the Super Bowl.

Dignitaries, including Obiano, were already seated when Ebelechukwu Obiano, Willie Obiano's wife stood up from her seat and moved to where Bianca, widow of Chukwuemeka Ojukwu, was seated and spoke to her. Although Ebelechukwu was inaudible, the video showed how Bianca rose and gave her a slap, leading to a commotion. Whichever w...
