Diane Warren just got her 16th Oscar nomination as a songwriter.
She’s never won, but a couple of years ago the Academy gave her the first ever Lifetime Achieveemnt Oscar for songwriting.
This year Warren is up against Elton John and two songs from “Emilia Perez.”
But her song, “The Journey,” sung by HER, aka Gabi Wilson, sounds like a winner. It comes from the war drama, “Six Triple Eight.”
We love Elton John, but he an Oscar for “The Lion King.” “Emilia Perez” — the songs will cross each other out. “The Journey” may end Diane’s journey to an Oscar!
Even if she wins, that doesn’t mean she’ll stop. She’s the most dedicated hard worker ever. Diane Warren will be back for at least every one of the next 10 years, maybe more!
