The Weeknd has unveiled an explicit new video for 'Earned It' from Fifty Shades Of Grey soundtrack. Watch it below.

Featuring on the soundtrack for Sam Taylor Wood's S&M bonkbuster, the clip is a suitably explicit affair, featuring the singer performing the track amongst scantily clad dancers in an empty theatre.

The clip also features a brief cameo from actress Dakota Johnson, who appears to be tied up by ropes hanging from an invisible ceiling, playing to the themes of the film, with Tesfari serenading her. It also appears to have been heavily influenced by Beyonce's Partition video (which in turn 'borrowed' heavily from Paris' Crazy Horse review).

Watch the video for 'Earned It' below:

'Earned It' is one of two tracks The Weeknd contributed to the soundtrack, with Beyonce, Sia, Ellie Goulding, Jessie Ware and others appearing throughout the rest of the compilation.

Fifty Shades of Grey is released in cinemas on 14 February, whilst the soundtrack is out 10 February.
