Lady Gaga will perform at the Oscars
BY MELISSA RUGGIERI
The Oscars are starting to look a bit like the Grammys.
A couple of days after it was announced that Jennifer Hudson would be part of a musical sequence on the show comes word that Lady Gaga will perform as well.
Gaga, fresh off her cutesy spin with Tony Bennett on the Grammy Awards last week (the pair also nabbed a trophy for best traditional pop vocal album for their "Cheek to Cheek" collaboration) will perform a "special tribute" at the Oscars.
The show, which will air live from Hollywood on ABC on Feb. 22 (red carpet gawking begins at 7 p.m.), has already announced its musical guests for the best original song category: Tegan & Sara and The Lonely Island, "Everything Is Awesome" from "The Lego Movie"; John Legend and Common, "Glory" from "Selma"; Adam Levine, "Lost Stars," from "Begin Again"; Tim McGraw, "I'm Not Gonna Miss You," from "Glen Campbell…I'll Be Me"; and Rita Ora, "Grateful," from "Beyond the Lights."
With the incredibly talented Neil Patrick Harris as host, expect a ton of musical moments during the show.
