The film starring Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga takes the award for Best Original Music at the Baftas 2019
A Star is Born puts music front and centre, so it’s no surprise the soundtrack has scooped the award for Best Original Music at the British Academy of Film and Television Arts Awards.
The music for the film was written by Mark Ronson, Jason Isbell, Natalie Hemby and Lori McKenna, among other artists. The soundtrack for the film included live performances and studio recordings by the cast, including Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga.
Accepting the award, Bradley Cooper said: "This music was the heartbeat of the film."
Does Bradley Cooper really sing in A Star is Born?
