The 94th Academy Awards announced an all-star lineup featuring the show’s music director Adam Blackstone, Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker and singer Sheila E. as among those who will perform at the ceremony. Billie Eilish and her brother FINNEAS have also been confirmed to perform their Oscar-nominated song “No Time to Die,” from the James Bond film of the same name, during the ceremony.  Eilish, 20 and FINNEAS, 24, are first-time Oscar nominees, and widely considered the favorites to take home the best original song Oscar statuette, having already been awarded the equivalent Golden Globe, Critics Choice, and Grammy awards.
