Britney Spears and Shakira to duet?

Hit me baby one more time?! Yes please! Britney Spears is back, and with a bigger bang than ever as her next song is reportedly a much anticipated collaboration with Columbian beauty Shakira.

And as if that wasn’t enough, Black Eyed Peas front-man Will I Am is rumoured to be producing the new track.

Both of the blonde bombshells are said to be thrilled at the thought of working together, with rapper  Pharrell Williams behind the union, stating:

"I have proposed to [Spears's label] Jive Records to bring Shakira into the studio and they thought it was a fabulous idea."

After Shakira’s successful partnership with Beyonce in 2007 and their number 1 smash hit ‘Beautiful Liar’, N.E.R.D star Pharrell Williams, who is also contributing to the new track, is keen to create the next big duet in the business:

"I want to make it happen. I want an explosive duet and won't sleep easy until I see it."

With the track’s release date scheduled for later this year, let’s hope it’s worth the wait.
