Spend some time with Doja Cat as she prepares for her performance at the 2025 Academy Awards. Doja, who is set to perform Shirley Bassey’s “Diamonds Are Forever” in a James Bond-themed medley at the Oscars, will be dressed in a hand-beaded, corseted, leopard-print Balmain dress, complete with a dramatic sweetheart neckline. For the Vanity Fair Oscar Party, Doja goes all gold, slipping into a dress evoking the very award show she will be performing at. While sitting in the makeup chair, she also talks about respecting the sound of the original recording and explains why her new hairdo just might be reminiscent of Street Fighter’s Guile.
