Among her choices were “Moon River” from 1961’s “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” and Eminem’s “Lose Yourself” from 2002’s “8 Mile.” .
The Academy Award’s Best Song category has been a sore subject with The Buzz since 1974 when “We May Never Love Like This Again” from “The Towering Inferno” beat out the theme to “Blazing Saddles.”
