2023 Oscars’ In Memoriam segment pays tribute to Hollywood’s departed stars.

The 2023 Oscars saw a touching tribute to Hollywood’s departed stars during the In Memoriam segment. Actor John Travolta introduced the segment, and he was clearly emotional as he paid tribute to the many legends who had passed away in recent years.

Travolta took the stage at the Dolby Theatre and choked up as he spoke about the many actors, directors, and industry professionals who had left their mark on Hollywood. He also paid a subtle tribute to his Grease co-star, Olivia Newton John, saying that she and other stars “had touched our hearts. They’ve made us smile, and became dear friends who we will always remain hopelessly devoted to.”

Following Travolta’s emotional introduction, musician Lenny Kravitz took to the stage to perform “Calling All Angels.” The song was a fitting tribute to those who had passed away, and Kravitz’s powerful performance brought many in the audience to tears.

The In Memoriam segment is always one of the most emotional parts of the Oscars, as it is a reminder of the many talented individuals who have contributed to the film industry over the years. This year’s segment was no exception, as it honored a wide range of actors, directors, writers, and other industry professionals.

Despite the sadness of the segment, it was also a reminder of the lasting impact that these individuals have had on the film industry and on audiences around the world. As John Travolta said in his introduction, they will always be remembered and remain a vital part of Hollywood’s history.
