Oscars telecast: Come for the music, stay for the movies
Producers hope big musical sequences will attract younger audience without alienating adult viewers
Los Angeles
LADY Gaga will perform in a sure-to-be eye-catching outfit, Tim McGraw adds a little country to Hollywood, Adam Levine brings rock-star swagger and pop duo Tegan and Sara team up with The Lonely Island for kid favourite Everything Is Awesome. No, it is not the Grammys. Those were last week.
It is the 87th Academy Awards and the telecast producers know they need new viewers who might require more enticement than a slew of good movies and gorgeous movie stars to show up for Hollywood's biggest night on Sunday.
