She’s had one of the best-selling singles of the year so far with Fifty Shades of Grey song “Love Me Like You Do” – and now it looks like Ellie Goulding could sing the theme tune of another Hollywood blockbuster.
Sam Smith has hinted Goudling is in line to sing the Spectre theme song when the film comes out in autumn after saying he had been asked to record it.
“I heard Ellie Goulding was going to do it, it’s definitely not me,” he said.
Denying reports he would be performing the song, he told Capital FM: “I’m deadly serious! I think I would know by now!...I’d love to do it, who knows? I’d just love to do it. It would be a dream.”

Starring Daniel Craig, Christoph Waltz, Monica Bellucci, Ralph Fiennes, Léa Seydoux and Naomie Harris, Spectre is due to be released on 6 November in the UK.
