OFFICIAL Performers List:

Adam Levine (“Lost Stars,” Begin Again)
Rita Ora (“Grateful,” Beyond the Lights)
Tim McGraw (“I’m Not Gonna Miss You,” Glen Campbell: I’ll Be Me)
Lonely Island and Tegan & Sara (“Everything is Awesome!,” The LEGO Movie)
Common and John Legend (“Glory,” Selma)

Jack Black will “make a special appearance.”

Lady Gaga will be performing a “special tribute.”

Anna Kendrick and Jennifer Hudson are set to perform but no word on what. Much rumbling can be heard that a possible tribute to The Sound of Music might be happening. It is the 50th anniversary and Oscar producers Neil Meron and Craig Zadan are kind of obsessed with musicals. But, unless we hear that Julie Andrews is going to be a part of something I wonder what’s the point? Unless they’re going to try and keep something like that under wraps.

Host Neil Patrick Harris will perform “an original multimedia, musical sequence” called “Moving Pictures”, written by “Let It Go” writers Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez.

This led him down the path to obsessing about awards. Much later, he found himself in film school and the film forums of GoldDerby, and then migrated over to the former Oscarwatch (now AwardsDaily), before breaking off to create AwardsWatch in 2013. He is a Rotten Tomatoes-approved critic, accredited by the Cannes Film Festival, Telluride Film Festival, Toronto International Film Festival and more, is a member of the International Cinephile Society (ICS), The Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics (GALECA), Hollywood Critics Association (HCA) and the International Press Academy. Among his many achieved goals with AwardsWatch, he has given a platform to underrepresented writers and critics and supplied them with access to film festivals and the industry and calls the Bay Area his home where he lives with his husband and son.
