Lady Gaga & Bradley Cooper’s Oscar ‘Shallow’ Performance – A Kiwi Favourite Reimagined Live

Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper’s live performance of “Shallow” at the Oscars wasn’t just a cinematic moment — it became an emotional touchstone for New Zealand fans of film, music, and live performance. Kiwis watching the Academy Awards in 2019 were captivated by the stripped-back, intimate rendition of this now-iconic duet from A Star Is Born.

In Aotearoa, where the line between music and emotion runs deep, this performance struck a powerful chord. From Hamilton high school choirs to Queenstown wedding singers, Gaga and Cooper’s connection on stage sparked countless local covers and tributes across the country. It also reignited New Zealand’s appreciation for live musical storytelling, something we cherish in local acts from Six60 to Marlon Williams.

Whether you're a Kiwi musician inspired by raw, vulnerable vocals or a film buff drawn to the chemistry and narrative depth, this live version of “Shallow” proves that some moments transcend the screen — and find a home in New Zealand’s heart.
