The How We Do hitmaker’s performance will come just after the release of Fifty Shades of Grey, which will hit cinemas on February 14.
In the raunchy movie, Mia plays the adopted sister of Jamie Dornan's Christian Grey character.
Rita’s career is certainly going from strength to strength as not only is she on the judges’ panel for BBC’s The Voice with Tom Jones, will.i.am and Ricky Wilson, but she’s also joining Jake Gyllenhaal in this boxing drama Southpaw.
Also performing at this year’s Oscar ceremony will be John Legend and rapper Common will perform their Oscar-nominated track Glory, from Selma.
While another Voice family member – from the US show – Adam Levine will be hitting the stage to perform sing Lost Stars, the Oscar-nominated track both he and Keira Knightley perform in the musical romance Begin Again.
