That sure is a lot of Elsas!

Priyanka Chopra also voiced the Queen of Arendelle for the Indian version of the film, but she only gifted her talents to Elsa's speaking voice, not her singing.

In addition to the dazzling Disney performance, other 2020 Oscars performers include Cynthia Erivo singing "Stand Up" from Harriet, Elton John singing "(I'm Gonna) Love Me Again" from Rocketman, Chrissy Metz singing Diane Warren's "I'm Standing with You" from Breakthrough and Randy Newman singing Toy Story 4's "I Can't Let You Throw Yourself Away."

Billie EilishQuestlove and conductor Eímear Noone will also give special performances in what's sure to be an unforgettable show!

Let's just hope John Travolta isn't introducing Menzel's performance this time.
