Australian singer Judah Kelly won an Oscar for Best Live Action Short Film for *The Singers*, a musical short based on a 19th-century Russian story.
In the 98th Academy Awards, Australian-born singer-songwriter Judah Kelly won an Oscar for Best Live Action Short Film, shared with another film, for *The Singers*, a musical short based on a 19th-century Russian story.
Kelly, known for winning *Australia’s Got Talent*, starred as a shy bar patron who reveals a powerful singing voice, though he emphasized he still sees himself as a musician.
The film, made with real-life performers found online, was co-directed by Sam A. Davis and produced by Jack Piatt.
Kelly celebrated by holding the Oscar at after-parties, calling the win surreal.
While other Australians like Rose Byrne and Jacob Elordi were nominated but lost, Kelly’s victory was widely celebrated as a rare achievement, alongside wins by New Zealander Kate Hawley and American cinematographer Autumn Durald Arkapaw, who became the first woman to win in her category.
