Singer-songwriter Ellie Goulding, known for her private nature, is reportedly working on a documentary about her life that goes beyond her music. The film is said to highlight her activism work, including her fight against global warming. According to a source, Goulding wants to use her profile to raise awareness about the issue and believes that a documentary is the perfect medium to do so. The documentary will also cover her time in the studio and her life away from the red carpets. Goulding has been involved in several campaigns and was awarded the United Nations’ “New Voices Award” for her activism in 2017. She has also become a Goodwill Ambassador for UN Environment and a patron of the women’s shelter “The Marylebone Project.” Despite her previous privacy, Goulding has been vocal about the negative impact of social media and tabloids on people’s lives. She recently regretted responding to unfounded rumors that she had cheated on Ed Sheeran with Niall Horan. In an interview with The Independent newspaper, Goulding stated that responding to such rumors adds validity to a world that is manufactured to keep people scrolling and in fear. Goulding’s upcoming documentary follows the footsteps of other big-name artists who have made films giving glimpses into their private lives, including Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, and Lewis Capaldi. The project is a significant departure from her previous guarded approach, and the singer is excited to let her fans in on her real-life experiences.
