American singer and star actress of Bumblebee: The Movie, Hailee Steinfeld arrived at the 2018 Grammy Awards, rocking a beautiful white dress and purple boots (pictured) and was ushered aside for a little chat with billboard.com’s Keith Caulfield.
Billboard: One last question. You are in the new Bumblebee movie. It’s coming, I think, at the end of this year. Are you going to be singing with the car? I’m just wondering.
Hailee: There may be a little plot twist. Bumblebee actually might be singing. The movie takes place in the 80s and there are some incredible 80s references in terms of music. I’m hoping that, may be, post production-wise I can jump in on a little something.
Billboard: 80s covers perhaps?
Hailee: 80s covers perhaps. *smiles*
“Bumblebee actually might be singing” may be a reference to the DJ Bumblebee toy to be released by Hasbro. Given the fact that the star actress is also an amazing singer, the possibility of her performing an original credit scroll song is also very likely.

Thread cleaned. Please stay on topic.

He"s right, you know.

Meh. It's not like I watch these movies for the shitty soundtrack anyway, if she sucks I'll just mute it. 80s songs are fine, but remade 80s songs are prone to sucking.
Not touching the feminism comments, I don't see what that has to do with this at all.

You mean like "The Touch" or "Dare"?
I love those songs, but let's face it, they're not only the cheeseball-est rock ballads ever, they also feature guitar solos which I'm sure half of the lovely Ms. Steinfeld's generation wouldn't recognize if a stratocaster ran up and bit 'em on the butt.
In a somewhat related note: who the heck told her those purple lame' boots were a good idea? It's like someone went back to 1990 and fished them out the back of Julia Robert's closet.

Now I feel like Darth Vader.
Darth Vader: Is Steinfeld composing for BB Movie? What happened to Padme?
Darth Sidious: Yes. She's gone.
Darth Vader: NOOOO! NOOOOOOOOOH!

Given they filmed in Santa Cruise, wonder if she can cover the song "Still Believe" from "The Lost Boys?"
