Doja Cat’s “Vegas” will be the first single from the soundtrack to Baz Luhrmann’s upcoming Elvis Presley biopic. The song — which interpolates Big Mama Thornton’s 1952 rock and roll classic “Hound Dog,” a song that Elvis famously covered — will be the first taste of the ELVIS Soundtrack when it drops on May 6.

Doja debuted the single during her Coachella performances over the past two weekends and brought out gospel singer Shonka Dukureh — who plays Thornton in the film — for the sets. The movie, which stars Austin Butler as Elvis and Tom Hanks as the late rock icon’s controversial manager, Colonel Tom Parker, will open in theaters on June 24.

Check out a preview of the song in Luhrmann’s Instagram post below.

2022 Grammys Red Carpet: Ranking the Best and Worst Dressed

• Worst: Dillon Francis

  Share

  Dillon Francis took "rolled out of bed" to new heights (or lows) when he showed up wearing jeans, a t-shirt and vans with a bag of snacks.

• Worst: Julian Primeaux

  Share

  Julian Primeaux looks like a swashbuckling pirate, complete with a Grammy medal necklace that looks like a dubloon!

• Worst: Jon Batiste

  Share

  Jon Batiste came looking like a jester in this getup. Add some neon yellow, and our eyes feel like they're about to start bleeding...
• Worst: Jared Leto

  Share

  For someone who is the face of Gucci, Jared Leto's outfit couldn't be more all over the place. From the low-cut embroidered lace shirt to the cow print fuzzy cuffs? What was he thinking?

• Worst: Benny Blanco

  Share

  Benny Blanco's outfit looks comical -- from the pattern, to the cropped pants, to the bedazzled shoes...

• Worst: Avril Lavigne

  Share

  We love the punk princess, but high-low dresses are SO not it anymore.
• Worst: The Chattahoochies

  Share

  The Chattahoochies women wore tacky variations of country staples cowboy boots and hats with an overabundance of sparkles, studs and fringe.

• Worst: Victoria Evigan

  Share

  There is just much too much going on with the Elephant Heart singer's gown.

• Worst: Cheri Moon

  Share

  Cheri Moon's gilded sculpture cage addition looks VERY uncomfortable. Fashion does need to be functional sometimes.
• Worst: Jazzmeia Horn

  Share

  Well here's an unflattering elongation of one's head. Jazzmeia's hairstyle makes her look long in the worst way.

• Worst: Tia Tia

  Share

  Lady Liberty but make it 2022...

• Worst: Natalie Grant

  Share

  Who let Natalie Grant attend the Grammys in a robe?
• Worst: Sean Paul

  Share

  We LOVE Sean Paul's jacket, but those pants and sneakers kill the whole outfit.

• Worst: Doechii

  Share

  Doechii literally wore a gown made from a fuzzy blanket -- it must be cozy, though!

• Worst: Justin Bieber and Hailey Bieber

  Share

  We're sorry, Hailey, because Justin was the worst accessory at the Grammys. We're all for oversized looks, but Justin is completely SWALLOWED by his suit.
• Worst: Bomba Estéreo

  Share

  The Colombian psychedelic cumbia band REALLY went for it with the masks and bright colors!

• Worst: Carrie Underwood

  Share

  Carrie Underwood usually kills it at red carpet events, but we are not liking this pageant sash going across an otherwise gorgeous gown. The addition of sparkles in the corset bring it over the top when the dress's bottom portion perfect.

• Worst: Tiësto

  Share

  We love that men are incorporating bold blazers, but Tiësto's suit is just curtains ripped off and tailored.
• Best: Diplo

  Share

  Diplo's icy blue hair stood out at this year's Grammys.

• Best: Laverne Cox

  Share

  Laverne Cox wore a simple lace gown, but we're really loving her hair and Old Hollywood glamour makeup.

• Best: Lil Nas X

  Share

  Lil Nas X once again wearing a one-of-a-kind outfit at the awards show, with his ensemble adorned in pearls.
• Best: Questlove

  Share

  Big winner Questlove can't go wrong on the red carpet when Crocs are involved -- A comfy style icon.

• Best: Lenny Kravitz

  Share

  Lenny Kravitz's leather pants may be a LITTLE bit too tight, but we love a man who is unafraid of wearing more "feminine" pieces, like his heeled boots and glittery see-through top.

• Best: Petra Collins

  Share

  Petra Collins wore a simple iridescent dress with lace cutouts.
• Best: Alisha Gaddis

  Share

  Alisha Gaddis' headpiece is so beautiful and perfect for Spring! Outfitted with an elegant teal gown.

• Best: Mon Laferte

  Share

  We are loving the Chilean singer's masculine dress pants look with a bold red lip.

• Best: DJ Black Coffee and Esona Maphumulo

  Share

  DJ Black Coffee wore some cream at the Grammys, matching with his son. We're loving the flare on his pants as well.
• Best: Arlo Parks

  Share

  Arlo Parks exudes confidence shines through on the red carpet, and we're loving how she played up a dress jacket and shorts.

• Best: Dreezy

  Share

  Dreezy spiced up her black gown with a peekaboo silver lining.

  Share

  Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker once again stun on the red carpet in all black, with Kourtney wearing a cutout catsuit while the drummer wore a vest and trousers.

  Billie Eilish is the prime example of how you don't have to wear revealing or tight clothing to still serve a look!

  Dua Lipa is in her hot girl era, debuting blonde locks in this Versace bondage dress.

• Best: Spice

  Share

  Spice's big reveal under her huge red jacket is this incredible white lace fringe gown!

  Davis Burleson suit is where Western, tassels and fringe meet in unison.

  Share

  It's going to be a b---- getting out of that latex dress, Tinashe, but that trumpet dress is sick!

• Best: Aymée Nuviola

  Share

  We are loving the Cuban singer's choice of green textures in her gown!
• Best: Kelsea Ballerini

  Share

  Incorporating a bow on a gown usually doesn't work, but Kelsea Ballerini's big white layered bow sits perfectly.

• Best: Leon Bridges

  Share

  Leon Bridges wore flared white pants and cropped blazer with golden leaves adorned around the edges. We appreciate the attention to detail to his outfit, wearing matching white shoes with golden leaves!

• Best: Lady Gaga

  Share

  Lady Gaga was a classic beauty at the Grammys in a black and white gown.

  Share

  You couldn't miss Elle King if you tried in this bold red ensemble! The flared pants, the billowing sleeves and wide-brimmed hat are all statement pieces on their own, but she somehow pulls it off!

• Best: DJ MILLIE

  Share

  We're loving the back bow detail on DJ MILLIE's dress, along with her lace gloves with feather fringe.

  Share

  Cailin Russo's rust leather ensemble is bold and edgy, as well as her alt-neon green hairdo.

• Best: Inanna Sarkis

  Share

  Inanna Sarkis stunned in this see-through silver sparkling gown with feathery trim.

• Best: Chloe Bailey

  Share

  Chloe Bailey dressed like a star as always, with tonight glimmering like one in all silver sequins!

  Share

  Midsommar but make it fashion, SZA!

• Best: Chrissy Teigen

  Share

  Chrissy Teigen looks like a Spring princess in this light pink gown!

  Beat it, punk. Halsey's corseted leather gown is so interesting and unique. Her tilted hat gives us an element of mystery!
