Ne-Yo wants to work with Lily Allen.

The 'So Sick' star - who has previously written tracks for artists including Beyonce Knowles and Michael Jackson - is a big fan of the British singer and is hoping to set up a meeting with her.

Speaking at Radio One's Big Weekend Festival in Swindon, he said: "I'm a huge, huge Lily Allen fan, and Franz Ferdinand. I know Lily's back there somewhere, I'm gonna go pick her brain.

I'm really a huge fan of her work, I want to sit down and just have a conversation with her

"I'm really a huge fan of her work, I want to sit down and just have a conversation with her."

While the American singer was gushing about the 'Fear' star he also found himself a big fan - Maximo Park frontman Paul Smith.

The rocker gushed: "Ne-Yo just writes great songs. He's got a great voice, and he's got the moves and he's got a cool hat. So he's kind of my idol."
