Singer, songwriter and producer, Pharrell Williams will perform at The Oscars this year and we are beyond excited. He will be performing his Oscar nominated song “Happy.” The Oscars which are hosted by Ellen DeGeneres, will air on Sunday, March 2nd live on ABC and the coverage will be shown in 225 different countries worldwide.
Pharrell has been nominated for several Oscars “Happy” which Williams wrote and produced for “Despicable Me 2″, “Ordinary Love” from “Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom” “Let It Go” from “Frozen” and “The Moon Song” from “Her.”
Pharrell Williams’ resume is already an illustrious one that includes seven Grammys and Billboard’s Producer of the Decade in 2010. Williams collaborated on two of 2013’s biggest songs: Robin Thicke’s “Blurred Lines” which he co-wrote and produced and Daft Punk’s “Get Lucky,” which he co-wrote and also sang on. He is a successful solo producer and as part of the prolific production team, The Neptunes. He has played key roles in creating hits that includes Jay-Z’s “I Just Wanna Love U (Give it 2 Me),” Nelly’s “Hot in Here,” Gwen Stefani’s “Hollaback Girl,” Snoop Dogg’s “Drop it Like it’s Hot,” Britney Spears’ “I’m A Slave 4 U” and Justin Timberlake’s “Like I Love You.”
One can not say that Pharrell isn’t deserving of all his success! We look forward to seeing him perform at The Oscars.
