Beyonce Knowles has grown close to British singer Alexandra Burke after the two performed a duet together on the finale of the The X Factor, which Alexandra subsequently won. Burke also revealed Beyonce has been supporting her throughout the recording of her debut album Overcome in the US. The 21-year-old singer said:
She’s such a lovely woman and now I’m working with all her people.
In the studio in New York I was singing and I opened my eyes and my girl Beyonce was standing there. I went to cuddle her and cried. She said, ‘You can’t cry, we’re friends now.’ And I cried some more.
I was like, ‘You can’t tell me things like that. You’re Beyonce.’
Alexandra isn’t spilling any information on whether 28-year-old Beyonce will appear on her album, but she hopes to perform with the former Destiny’s Child star soon. She added to Britain’s Daily Star newspaper: “I can’t confirm anything yet, but I’m hoping to be on the European leg of Beyonce’s tour.”
Alexandra will perform her first single “Bad Boys” on The X Factor on October 11.
