Leona Lewis 'To Record Dolly Parton Song With Justin Timberlake'

Leona Lewis is to record a cover of Dolly Parton's 'I Will Always Love You' with Justin Timberlake, it's been claimed.

The song, originally released in 1974, was famously covered in 1992 by Whitney Houston.

The pair are both said to be awaiting an empty slot in their schedules before entering the studio.

“Leona and Justin are huge fans of each other’s music and are raring to go,” a source told the Sun newspaper.

Meanwhile, Lewis, a former winner of The X Factor, is also understood to be working with producer Timbaland on her second album.

The follow-up to 2007's 'Spirit', is due to come out following the release of the singer's first autobiography in October.
