Pharrell Williams has been confirmed to perform his Oscar-nominated song Happy at this year's Academy Awards ceremony on March 2.
The star's No.1 hit - which is taken from the soundtrack to animated flick Despicable Me 2 - will go up against U2's Ordinary Love (Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom), The Moon Song (Her) and Idina Menzel's Let It Go from Disney movie Frozen for the Best Original Song Oscar.
Earlier this month, Williams also enjoyed award show success at the Grammys - where he was named Producer of the Year and was also recognised for his work on Daft Punk's Get Lucky.
In other Pharrell news, the 40-year old has announced he will play an intimate gig in May as part of MasterCard's Priceless series.
The date and venue of the gig is yet to be confirmed, with the hitmaker saying: "Not only do I get to perform at The Brit Awards this year, but I now also get to perform to an intimate crowd at my MasterCard Priceless Gig in 2014.
"My fans are so important to me, so I’m excited to get up close and personal and thank them for all their support with a Priceless experience."
Kylie Minogue and Laura Mvula are also due to perform as part of the MasterCards series of events.
