Leona’s mentor media mogul Simon Cowell is said to be particularly delighted with the collaboration as he thinks it will help convince Williams to appear as a judge on his UK TV talent contest The X-Factor.

“The track will coincide with her arena tour,with the possibility that Robbie could appear on stage. Simon is really keen on the idea and hopes it will help Robbie come on board with the ‘X Factor’,” the source added.

Leona has also reportedly been in touch with ‘Kings of Leon’ frontman Caleb Followill about a one-off track after learning the ‘Sex on Fire’ rockers had been enjoying her music.
