UPDATE: Jan. 16 ― It’s official: Ariana Grande and John Legend are recording the theme song for Disney’s live-action “Beauty and the Beast” remake, the Associated Press reports.
Aside from a mysterious Instagram photo posted by Grande (and shared by the “Beauty and the Beast” account), the two stars have kept mum about their duet.
On Sunday, Legend’s wife, model Chrissy Teigen, tweeted about how beautiful the song sounds, telling her followers “U HAVE BEEN BLESSED.” Grande responded with an oh-so-appropriate rose emoji.
Now we’re even more excited to hear it!

We’re already counting down the days until the March 17 premiere for Disney’s live-action remake of “Beauty and the Beast,” starring Emma Watson, Luke Evans, Ewan McGregor and Dan Stevens.
Then we saw the latest teaser trailer at the Golden Globes, which featured Watson singing. And now, we’re even more excited because there’s speculation that Ariana Grande and John Legend may be recording a duet for the soundtrack.
Although nothing is confirmed, fans first started buzzing about the possible music collaboration this week when Grande posted a rather ambiguous Instagram picture that tagged John Legend and the “Beauty and the Beast” social account. What’s more, the caption is a rose.
The picture was also regrammed by the “Beauty and the Beast” account, which makes this all seem even more real.
We hope we aren’t getting our hopes up!
