Chris Martin was nervous about asking Rihanna for a Coldplay collaboration.
Chris Martin has revealed that Rihanna will feature on Coldplay's upcoming album Mylo Xyloto.Jacked from Digital Spy
The frontman explained that the 'S&M' popstar has lent her vocals to new song 'Princess of China' for the band's fifth studio LP, which comes out on October 24.
"She has such an amazing voice and it's so different to mine," Martin told The Sun.
"When the vocal happened I thought 'Wow, you sound different' but I think that's also because she was singing a different song to what we are used to hearing from her and it is written by a bloke from Devon."
Martin also recalled the moment when he asked the Bajan singer whether she would be up for the collaboration, admitting that he was initially nervous about approaching the star.
"The album is designed as a whole piece. It has boy and girl lead characters and top of our list for the girl part was Rihanna... but it took a while to pluck up the courage to ask her," he said.
"We did a show in Las Vegas and I met her and said, 'Do you think there's any chance?' I was very Hugh Grant-like and spluttering about it."
