NEW YORK, N.Y. – Tennis is calling Carly Rae Jepsen.

The “Call Me Maybe” singer has been tapped for the Annual Arthur Ashe Kids’ Day at the U.S. Open. She’ll join The Wanted, Owl City and Cymphonique Miller, along with reigning men’s champion Novak Djokovic (NOH’-vak JOH’-kuh-vich), past women’s champion Kim Clijsters (KLY’-sturz) and John Isner.

This is the 17th annual Kids’ Day. Last year, it was cancelled because of Hurricane Irene.
