“This year’s Oscars were full of pointed criticism, awkward jokes, and Stacey Dash, but the most powerful moment came halfway through the show when Lady Gaga took the stage. Seated at a white piano, Gaga performed a heart-wrenching rendition of “Til It Happens To You,” the Oscar-nominated song she co-wrote with Diane Warren for The Hunting Ground, the 2015 documentary about sexual assault on college campuses.
Introduced by Vice President Joe Biden, Gaga, who is herself a survivor of sexual assault, breathed deep and let loose and she sang lyrics like “Till it happens to you, you don’t know how I feel.” As she opened into the last two minutes of the song, a wall rose behind her and out walked 50 survivors of sexual assault. They wore plain clothes and bore messages like “Unbreakable” on their arms.”
