We will be seeing America Ferrera on stage at the Oscars, one way or another. The actress, who is nominated in the Best Supporting Actress category for her role as Gloria in Barbie has been announced as one of the presenters in the 2024 Oscars ceremony. Anya Taylor-Joy was also announced in the last round of presenters.
Ferrera and Taylor-Joy join other Latine presenters announced like music superstar Bad Bunny, EGOT winner Rita Moreno, and Oscar-winner Lupita Nyong’o. Likewise, singer Becky G is set to perform the song “The Fire Inside,” written by Diane Warren, which is nominated for Best Original Song.
