Doja Cat brought jaw-dropping style to the stage at the 2025 Oscars.
The rapper, 29, performed Shirley Basseyâs âDiamonds Are Foreverâ during the James Bond tribute at this yearâs Academy Awards Oscars in a nearly nude dress covered in crystals.
The stunning strapless custom dress was designed for her by Brett Alan Nelson, her long-time creative director. It featured more than one million Swarovski crystals appearing to float around her body. The look was topped off with Swarovski Matrix Y necklace, Matrix tennis necklace, Millenia tennis bracelet, Matrix choker and matching Matrix ear cuffs.
The musician sang the song from the 1971 film of the same name following Lisaâs performance of âLive and Let Dieâ and before RAYEâs rendition of âSkyfall.â
Along with the draping stones that covered her dress, Doja Cat also wore a layers of diamond necklaces that wrapped twice around her neck before dipping low on her décolletage to add even more shine to her performance.
A nude slip sat below the glittery dress and had its own diamante embellishments as well.
Her shimmering onstage look was her second of the night. Doja Cat walked the carpet in a look that evoked her namesake, an animal-print Balmain gown covered in sparkles. The plunging dress was based on a 1950s design by the house that was recreated just for her, and she paired it with a matching scarf around her neck, a statement necklace and sparkly earrings.
She said during the preshow that she felt âgreatâ in the look and was so âexcitedâ for her performance during the show.
A near-nude look is nothing new for the âPaint the Town Redâ singer. At the 2024 Met Gala, she wore a sheer white dress that hung loose on her and appeared to be soaking wet, and the year before, she wore her most naked look yet to the 2023 MTV VMAs: a Monse dress made of cobweb-like fabric that exposed her nipples and cheeky nude thong.
