Buckle up, Queen is performing at the Oscars
Guys. Queen is performing at the Oscars this year.
With Adult Goth/possible vampire Adam Lambert at its helm, Queen is set to dazzle us all during the awards show, which controversially tried to cut four categories from its broadcast in hopes of saving time.

The Academy tweeted a teaser on Sunday, with a mash-up of "Bohemian Rhapsody" and "We Will Rock You."
Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?
We welcome @QueenWillRock and @adamlambert to this year's #Oscars!https://t.co/7uDf42FbjJ— The Academy (@TheAcademy) February 18, 2019
Lambert, who has been touring with Queen in Freddie Mercury's place as lead singer, tweeted, "We will rock The Oscars."
As Vulture points out, the performance is odd because Bohemian Rhapsody isn't even nominated for Best Original Song.
Meanwhile, Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper will perform "Shallow" from A Star Is Born and Bette Midler will sing "The Place Where Lost Things Go" from Mary Poppins Returns, both of which are nominated for Best Original Song.
