Shakira keen for duet with Robert Pattinson

Washington (ANI): Colombian singer Shakira is keen to record a duet with actor Robert Pattinson after witnessing his musical talent in 'Twilight'. The singer was introduced to the vampire film, which stars British hunk Pattinson as vampire Edward Cullen, after an executive at her record label noticed its themes are similar to those explored on her upcoming album, She Wolf.

"The president of my label said, 'Have you checked out Twilight? It's about wolves and vampires and things.' And I'm like, 'Ah, that's up my alley. I mean, where is it?' And I watched it and loved it," Contactmusic quoted her as telling MTV.com.

She admits she'd love to duet with Pattinson, who played piano and recorded vocals for two songs on the Twilight soundtrack. "I've heard he's a great singer and a great musician. If those rumours are true - yeah, of course, why not?" she added.
