Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett are reportedly planning to release a full-length jazz album.
The duo have worked together in the past, with Gaga appearing on Bennett's 2011 album 'Duets II'. They performed a cover of The Lady Is A Tramp, which you can hear below.
It is now reported that a proper album of jazz standards will be recorded by the pair with 'a big swing band' being recruited for the album sessions.
Speaking to Rolling Stone, Bennett said: "[Lady GaGa] called me from New Zealand and said, 'I want to do a jazz album with you', and I said, 'You got it!' Adding: "A lot of people don't know it, but she's a phenomenal jazz singer.
"She's a good friend and I respect that she's so creative, that every day she changes, she has so many ideas and carries them out. She just never stops with it. I call her the musical Picasso."
Gaga hit the headlines earlier this week when she responded to a US politician who had labelled her a 'slut' for the way she carries herself in public.
