Lady Gaga is having an incredible February: She gave a dizzying tribute to David Bowie at the Grammys, slayed the national anthem at the Super Bowl, and now has performed “Til It Happens to You†— her song about sexual assault co-written with Diane Warren for The Hunting Ground — at the Oscars.
Toward the end of the performance, a number of sexual-assault survivors joined her onstage in a powerful show of strength and solidarity. Gaga and Warren might have lost the Oscar for Best Original Song, but this is the performance that history will remember.
