Billie Eilish is set to perform at the Oscars, where fans speculate she may be unveiling the theme tune to upcoming Bond movie.

The 18-year-old singer has been confirmed to be delivering a "special" performance at the Academy Awards on February 9.

The Academy made the official announcement on social media.

It's unknown what song Billie will be performing at the star-studded award ceremony, but fans suspect she might use the stage to unveil the theme song to upcoming James Bond movie No Time To Die.

The performance news comes as the 'Bad Guy' hitmaker recently made history at the Grammy Awards over the weekend, when she became the youngest artist, and only the second artist ever, to scoop the ceremony's four biggest categories - Record of the Year, Song of the Year, Album of the Year and Best New Artist.

When she picked up Song of the Year for 'Bad Guy', Billie admitted she "never thought" she'd ever win a Grammy Award.
