*Director Ava DuVernay announced Tuesday that Sade has contributed a song to the soundtrack for her upcoming film “A Wrinkle in Time.”

As noted by Page Six, the music icon has taken many hiatuses throughout her career, and she hasn’t released a song or an album since 2010’s critically acclaimed “Soldier of Love.”

Her song on the “Wrinkle in Time” soundtrack is called “Flower of the Universe,” according to DuVernay.

“I never thought she’d say yes, but asked anyway. She was kind + giving. A goddess,” DuVernay tweeted.

DuVernay describes her upcoming Disney movie  as “a love letter” to black women and girls.

Oprah Winfrey, Reese Witherspoon, Chris Pine and Storm Reid are among the cast of the film, in theaters March 9.

Gayle King revealed to The Cut that she doesn’t get much sleep these days, and at 63-years-old, that’s just fine with her.

“I tell you, I’m happy if I look at my Under Armour band and it starts with a 4,” the CBS anchor and O! magazine editor said of the activity tracker that logs sleeping habits.

According to Page Six, “King’s alarm goes off at 3:22 a.m. —  with a backup alarm set for three minutes later —  and she’s off to CBS for hair and makeup and prep meetings before she goes on air with co-anchor Norah O’Donnell.”

Despite being sleep-deprived, King credits her successful balancing act to the fact that her kids are grown and she doesn’t have to cook and clean up after them.

“I always say they’re employed and potty trained — so it’s not like I have to run home to take care of the kids or fix a meal for anybody but myself. You know what my dinner was last night? Honey Nut Cheerios with bananas and raisins. I was so proud of myself; cooking is not my forte.”

Her nighttime routine includes a workout on an at-home treadmill and catching up on TV.

“We also get CBS homework every night, so I’ll start looking at that … Of course, I’ll also watch the news, and then I watch my shows. I love ‘This Is Us.’ And lately I’ve been up until 11 or 12 at night, because you just start watching something and you can’t stop. So I don’t have a set bedtime.”
