ALESHA DIXON has revealed that she would love to get together with Pharrell Williams - but strictly professionally.

The former Mysteeq singer first met the N.E.R.D. frontman in 2003 whilst dancing in his band's video for She Wants To Move.

In 2007, the pair were then rumoured to be an item after she split from her husband, MC Harvey of So Solid Crew, which Alesha has always denied.

But today she said she would love to work with Williams again - if she can afford it.

Speaking to Manchester's Key 103, she said: "That would be really, really, cool, as long as he doesn't charge too much money because he a quite expensive person to work with.

"I definitely think the thought is there and I am sure when it comes to making the second record we will definitely think about it, because obviously we didn't have any colabs on this album."

She also revealed how she got a lift from Cannes in Coldplay singer Chris Martin's private jet.

Alesha, 30, who is set to undertake a summer tour of the UK with Enrique Inglesias, said, "Oh I feel so tacky saying this, but yes he did. Oh god, he's a really lovely guy and he did, myself and my manager, give us a lift back.

"And I was really annoyed actually that it came out in the press, because for me personally it's just not my style."
