ONE CLASSIC DESERVES ANOTHER: Beyoncé has teamed up with OutKast’s Andre 3000 for a duet of Amy Winehouse's "Back to Black" for the soundtrack of Baz Luhrmann’s remake of The Great Gatsby. Jay-Z is calling the shots on the soundtrack. The movie stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Carey Mulligan and Tobey Maguire and will have what’s billed as its “world premiere” May 15 at the Cannes Film Festival, though it actually hits theaters on May 10 (Gatsby was originally slated for last Christmas). Beyoncé and Andre 3000, who previously collaborated on her 2011 song "Party," offer a "very different take on 'Back to Black,'" according to a label source. The soundtrack, which is rumored to also include songs from Prince and Lady Gaga, will be issued by Interscope. (4/3a)
