Lady Gaga has been nominated for the Best Song award at the Oscars, for her duet ‘Hello, Hello’ with Sir Elton John.
The song, from the Rocket Man’s Gnomeo and Juliet movie, has been included in a long list of 39 songs in competition for gold at the 2012 Academy Awards.
Mary J Blige’s track Living Proof, from The Help, is also on the list, along with will.i.am’s Hot Wings, from Rio, and Robbie Williams and Brad Paisley’s duet Collision of Worlds, from Cars 2, the Daily Express reported.
Other artists in consideration for the prize include Chris Cornell (The Keeper, from Machine Gun Preacher), actress/singer Zooey Deschanel (So Long, from Winnie the Pooh) and Elvis Costello (Sparkling Day, from One Day).
The list will be whittled down to five main contenders and the final nominees will be announced on 24 January next year.
