Cheryl Cole has confirmed that she has spoken to Rihanna about recording a duet.

Appearing together at the BRIT Awards on Tuesday, the Girls Aloud star admitted she had a “girl crush” on the singer.

Speaking after the ceremony, said she was keen to work with other artists and that one of them was Rihanna.

"I'd love to do a record with her. She feels the same,” Cole said during an appearance on ITV2. "There could be wheels, there could be motions. We'll see."

Cole and Rihanna came face to face at the BRITs when the X Factor judge presented the singer with the award for Best International Female.
