Beth Ditto wants a duet with Kate Moss

Thursday, June 07, 2007

The Gossip singer Beth Ditto wants to record a duet with Kate Moss. The plus-sized rocker met the supermodel at one of her US shows earlier this year and the pair struck up an instant friendship and went out clubbing. Beth is now keen to drag music lover Kate - who has previously dueted with Primal Scream on their track 'Some Velvet Morning' - into the studio. She said: "I'd consider doing a duet with her if the song was right. The night we went out we sang a lot."

The 'Standing In The Way Of Control' singer has also revealed she is wary of the catwalk beauty's Babyshambles frontman boyfriend Pete Doherty. She added: "I'm scared of her boyfriend." Beth - who is 5ft and weighs around 15 stone (210lbs) - recently praised super slim Kate for understanding what it's like for women to be persecuted for being large. She said: "Kate said the most amazing things about bodies to me. I didn't think I was going to like her, but she said, 'Do you know what I hate, Beth? When people tell my big girlfriends, 'You have a beautiful face.' That's a really radical concept."
