Beyonce Teases ‘Fifty Shades Of Grey’ Trailer: Watch

Beyonce has offered the first look at Fifty ShadesOf Grey, the film adaptation of the 2011 best-selling “mommy porn” novel.

Without warning, the On the Run star posted a snippet of the trailer on July 19. Scenes close in on the hands of entrepreneur Christian Grey (Jamie Dornan) and student Anastasia Steele (Dakota Johnson), hinting of their steamy affair to come. Meanwhile, a groggy version of Beyonce’s “Crazy in Love” plays out – a fitting soundtrack choice, given the graphic sex scenes that author E.L. James wrote in the film’s source material  and initial promises from screenplay writer Kelly Marcel that the film will be rated NC-17.

The full Fifty Shades of Grey trailer debuts Thursday. For now, watch Beyonce’s teaser after the jump.
