Scene and Heard: Beyonce may be writing for ’Shades’ soundtrack

MUSIC NEWS: Beyoncé has posted a short teaser trailer for the upcoming 50 Shades Of Grey movie on her Instagram account — although it seems fairly ironic that the singer, a key figure in the ‘Ban Bossy’ campaign for young girls, should lend her support to a film based on a book which has been criticised for its portrayal of women and overt sadomasochist themes.

Beyoncé’s post has led to speculation that she may have some involvement with the film’s soundtrack. The film is set to be released next February.
