The British Columbia-native will be in attendance at the 68th annual NBA All-Star Game to show off some Canadian pride and sing Canada’s national anthem. Charlotte-born Anthony Hamilton will sing the American anthem.

The big game begins at 5 pm PT / 8 pm ET on Sunday, February 17 on Sportsnet and will be seen by fans in more than 200 countries and territories in more than 40 languages.

And hey, maybe if we’re lucky she’ll come out and sing Call Me Maybe during the halftime show alongside scheduled performer J.Cole.
