JAMELIA - JAMELIA'S COLDPLAY SURPRISE

British R+B beauty JAMELIA is more surprised than anyone that her new single is a collaboration with COLDPLAY's CHRIS MARTIN - as she had no idea he wanted to work with her.

The THANK YOU singer - who is reportedly dating American hunk USHER - was astonished when she was told Martin wanted them to record the track SEE IT IN A BOY'S EYES together and was convinced the offer was a joke.

She explains, "The day before Chris called the label I'd been speaking to my A+R man, and he was going, 'What ideas have you got for me?'

"I told him I wanted to do some crazy things. The next day, he phoned and said: 'Your never going to guess what just happened: Chris Martin has called up.

"He says he's a really big fan, and he's got an idea for a song with you.' I was like, 'Yeah, shut up'"
