KID ROCK - KID ROCKS ON WITH SHERYL CROW + KRACKER

Country rocker KID ROCK is planning to record an entire album of duets with his ex-girlfriend SHERYL CROW.

The couple had a massive hit last year (03) with broken hearts ballad PICTURE, and now they're reteaming to write and record a whole album together.

Rock says, "We love to make music together, and we have so much fun doing it."

But he fears that gossips will think the duets album project mean the couple's romance is back on - despite the fact that Crow is now dating cycling champ LANCE ARMSTRONG.

He adds, "Me and Sheryl are friends. I don't want to talk about her personal life, but she's got a boyfriend. We're friends. No one believes it."

Meanwhile, Rock is also planning an album of old-school hip-hop with his DJ sidekick UNCLE KRACKER.
