Oscars 2022: Twitter is cringing hard at ‘trash’ version of We Don't Talk About Bruno, fans ask 'what was that?'

Oscars 2022: Twitter is livid after watching the ‘remix’ version of their favourite song We Don't Talk About Bruno at the ceremony.

Twitter is not at all happy with what the Academy Awards chose to do to Disney's megahit, We Don't Talk About Bruno. A part of Best Animated Feature winner Encanto, was a big hit with fans but the version that was shown during the ceremony didn't manage to win many hearts.

Oscars ceremony includes a performance of We Don't Talk about Bruno that did not quite land.

The performance kicked off on a promising note. The many cast members of Encanto, including lead voice actor Stephanie Beatriz, sang the song from the audience's seating area. Everyone took turns to sing their parts and it was almost perfect. That was until singer Megan Thee Stallion jumped in with a rap about the popularity of the song. Soon enough, Luis Fonsi joined in too.

“That we dont talk about bruno live at the #Oscars was ugly. we didnt want that, we wanted the original,” wrote another. “Really wish they kept the focus on the cast and stuck to the original version of We Don't Talk About Bruno. Boo. Was really looking forward to that,” tweeted a disappointed fan. “That WE DONT TALK ABOUT BRUNO performance was incredibly disappointing. Literally, NO ONE asked for Fonsi, Becky G, or Megan the Stallion. The song was fine with the original cast alone," wrote a fan.

We Don't Talk About Bruno is written by Lin-Manuel Miranda, who is nominated for Best Original Song for Dos Oruguitas, also from Encanto.
