The star’s tribute will be a musical performance to Jones in celebration of all his achievements. Executive producer Raj Kapoor, who made the special announcement, revealed:

“We’ve planned and curated this beautiful moment that we hope will uplift the room, that will celebrate the spirit of Quincy and all of his greatness. It’s a beautiful moment, and we think it will be very celebratory and make everybody feel really good.”

Jones, a music icon and cultural pioneer, received a Governor’s Award earlier this year, making this tribute a fitting recognition of his influential career. Queen Latifah’s performance is just one of many star-studded acts planned for the evening with Ariana Grande, Cynthia Erivo, Lisa (Blackpink), Doja Cat and RAYE also set to grace the stage.

Hosted by Conan O’Brien, the 97th Academy Awards will air live on March 2 2025 at 7:00pm ET on ABC, with streaming on Hulu.
