September 3 brought with it the long-awaited premiere of Camila Cabello‘s modernized, ‘girl power’ twist to the classic fairy tale, ‘Cinderella.’
Leading a bill of award-winning stars like Idina Menzel (TONY), Billy Porter (TONY, EMMY), and others, Cabello also captained the Amazon Prime film’s official motion picture soundtrack – which shared the same premiere date as its parent project.
Boasting only a handful of original songs (i.e. ‘Dream Girl,’ the Cabello-penned ‘Million to One,’ etc.), the movie’s companion album shined brightest with its collage of remakes of classic hits like Madonna‘s ‘Material Girl,’ Janet Jackson‘s ‘Rhythm Nation,’ Earth, Wind & Fire‘s ‘Shining Star,’ Salt-N-Pepa‘s ‘Whatta Man,’ and more.
Helping to lead the ‘Cinderella’ flick to become Amazon’s most-viewed offering the weekend of its release, look inside to see if that success spilled over to the soundtrack itself.
