Popstar Billie Eilish has confirmed that she'll be performing at the 92nd annual Oscars on Sunday, February 9, after making Grammy history. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced the news on Wednesday afternoon.

Eilish, 18, was the youngest artist ever to win in all four major music categories. She took home five awards, including Best New Artist, Album of the Year, Record of the Year, Song of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Album.

Other Oscar performers for 2020 include Harriet star Cynthia Erivo, Elton John, Frozen voice actress Idina Menzel, Chrissy Metz and Randy Newman, who will all perform nominated songs.

The young musician is also going to be performing the title song for the upcoming James Bond movie and is about to embark on a sold-out stadium tour this spring starting in Miami.

Eilish wrote her upcoming Bond song for the movie No Time to Die alongside her brother and frequent collaborator Finneas, who will join her during the Oscars performance. Past Bond theme song performers include Madonna, Garbage, Adele and Sam Smith. Both Adele and Smith both won the Oscar for Best Original Song, so it's possible that Eilish will have an Oscar next.

Perhaps she'll be the youngest person to achieve EGOT status - which is having an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony (she just needs to work on a musical).
