Fans will be able to catch this exclusive performance during The BRIT Awards, which are scheduled to run from 8-10 p.m. local time on Saturday, Feb. 28. The show will be broadcast on ITV1 and ITVX in Britain and stream on YouTube.com\/BRITs around the world.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe trio will perform the Billboard Hot 100-topping song on the BRITs 15 days before they are scheduled to perform it on the Oscars on Sunday March 15, where it is nominated for best original song.<\/p>\n

\n\tHUNTR\/X received two BRITs nominations this year \u2013 international group of the year and best international song (for \u201cGolden\u201d).<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWe are beyond thrilled to be nominated for 2 BRIT awards this year celebrating the music of KPOP DEMON HUNTERS!,\u201d EJAE, Audrey Nuna and REI AMI, said in a statement. \u201cWe can\u2019t wait to bring a special performance to Manchester. See you soon UK Fans!\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cGolden\u201d isn\u2019t the only song from a blockbuster film to be nominated for a BRIT this year. \u201cDefying Gravity\u201d from Wicked, as performed by stars Cynthia Erivo<\/a> and Ariana Grande<\/a>, is up for song of the year.
