Adele at Oscars

Adele will perform the James Bond theme ‘‘Skyfall’’ at the Oscars, her first US performance since last year’s Grammy Awards. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences said Wednesday that Adele will sing the Oscar-nominated song at the 85th annual Academy Awards on Feb. 24. She and producer Paul Epworth are nominated for best original song. The announcement isn’t much of a surprise considering Adele’s award show ubiquity. She won a Golden Globe for the Bond theme. The Oscars will also present a tribute to James Bond, marking the 50th anniversary of the franchise. (AP)
