AceShowbiz - Fans of "Wicked" have another reason to tune into this year's Oscars telecast. Set to air this Sunday at 7/6c on ABC, the ceremony promises breathtaking performances from lead stars Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo.

While both Grande and Erivo are nominees at this year's awards for their roles in the Jon M. Chu-directed musical film - Erivo for Best Actress and Grande for Best Supporting Actress - they are not expected to perform songs from their movie.

Instead, according to an official press release, Grande and Erivo "will participate in showstopping performances celebrating the filmmaking community and some of its legends."

Joining the musical extravaganza, K-Pop star BLACKPINK's Lisa is set to light up the stage with Doja Cat and Raye after the trio released their joint song "Born Again".

Completing the contemporary line-up is none other than hip-hop icon Queen Latifah. The organizers didn't specify the song she would deliver at the event but they confidently declared, "Expect the unexpected!"

Apart from the musical highlights, the ceremony, hosted by Conan O'Brien, will shine a spotlight on some of this year's most celebrated films. "Wicked" is among the top contenders with 10 nominations, including one for Best Picture.

Meanwhile, "Emilia Perez" leads the pack with the most nominations at 13. Its lead star Karla Sofia Gascon has just confirmed her attendance at the Oscars despite her previous scathing remarks about the diversity at the event.

Nevertheless, this year's Oscars promises to be a night full of magic, music, and memorable moments. Whether you're a fan of Broadway hits, K-pop, or just love the glitz, glamour, and drama of Hollywood's biggest night, there's something for everyone.
