MULTIPLATINUM-SELLING ROCK BAND PANIC! AT THE DISCO TO PAY TRIBUTE TO QUEEN WITH PERFORMANCE OF 'BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY' AT THE '2018 AMERICAN MUSIC AWARDS(R)'

Rami Malek, Joe Mazzello and Gwilym Lee, Stars of the Upcoming Queen Biopic, 'Bohemian Rhapsody,' to Introduce Performance

Dick clark productions and ABC, in partnership with YouTube Music, today announced that multiplatinum-selling band Panic! At the Disco will pay tribute to legendary British rock band Queen with a special performance of the award-winning hit "Bohemian Rhapsody." This performance will take place at the Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney, Australia, as part of the "2018 American Music Awards." The song, written by Freddie Mercury for the band's 1975 album, "A Night at the Opera," remains one of Queen's most popular and is often considered one of the greatest rock songs of all time. Rami Malek, Joe Mazzello and Gwilym Lee, cast of the upcoming 20th Century Fox Queen biopic, "Bohemian Rhapsody," will introduce Panic! At the Disco's performance live from the awards show in Los Angeles. Nominated this year for Favorite Artist - Alternative Rock, this will mark Panic! At the Disco's first performance on the AMAs. Hosted by Tracee Ellis Ross, the "2018 American Music Awards," the world's largest fan-voted awards show, will broadcast live from the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles on Tuesday, Oct. 9 at 8:00 p.m. EDT, on ABC.

"If there is one song that I wish I would've written myself, it's 'Bohemian Rhapsody,'" said Panic! At the Disco frontman, Brendon Urie. "Freddie Mercury's genius is clear from the very first note to the last, and I'm honored to be able to pay tribute to Queen with my performance."

Panic! At the Disco joins previously announced performers benny blanco with Halsey and Khalid, Cardi B featuring Bad Bunny and J Balvin, Mariah Carey, Ciara featuring Missy Elliott, Dua Lipa, Post Malone featuring Ty Dolla $ign, and Carrie Underwood, as well as a moving tribute to the Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin.

Panic! At the Disco released their No. 1 album "Pray For the Wicked" in June (via Fueled by Ramen/DCD2 Records) off the heels of their critically acclaimed fifth album, "Death Of A Bachelor." The album debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 Chart and was nominated for Best Rock Album at the 2017 GRAMMY(R) Awards. The RIAA platinum-selling release was the highest-selling rock album and fourth-highest-selling album released in 2016, according to Nielsen Soundscan. "DOAB" has also spawned RIAA certified gold singles "Hallelujah," "LA Devotee," "Don't Threaten Me With A Good Time," and platinum singles "Death Of A Bachelor," "Emperor's New Clothes" and "Victorious." Panic! At the Disco has been nominated for multiple awards, including the GRAMMYS, Teen Choice Awards, Alternative Press Music Awards, Kerrang! Awards and VMAs. At the 2006 VMAs, they won "Video of the Year" for their smash "I Write Sins Not Tragedies."

"Bohemian Rhapsody" is a foot-stomping celebration of Queen, their music and their extraordinary lead singer, Freddie Mercury. Freddie defied stereotypes and shattered convention to become one of the most beloved entertainers on the planet. The film traces the meteoric rise of the band through their iconic songs and revolutionary sound. They reach unparalleled success; but in an unexpected turn, Freddie, surrounded by darker influences, shuns Queen in pursuit of his solo career. Having suffered greatly without the collaboration of Queen, Freddie manages to reunite with his bandmates just in time for Live Aid. While bravely facing a recent AIDS diagnosis, Freddie leads the band in one of the greatest performances in the history of rock music. Queen cements a legacy that continues to inspire outsiders, dreamers and music lovers to this day.
