The singer has a bank of hit singles including “Lights,” which peaked at the second spot on the US Billboard 200, as well as “Love Me Like You Do” from the soundtrack of “Fifty Shades of Grey,” which stayed on top of the UK singles chart for four weeks.

Thanks to her unique voice and catchy sounds, her music has been featured in a number of Hollywood films of different genres, including “Kick-Ass,” “Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, Part 2” and “Hunger Games: Catching Fire.”

The “Love Me Like You Do” singer also collaborated with electronic dance music artists Calvin Harris, Kygo and Major Lazer.
