Rihanna Working With X Factor Star Joe McElderry

August 18, 2010
Rihanna Working With X Factor Star Joe McElderryRihanna is working on X Factor winner Joe McElderry's debut album.

The 19-year-old, who won the TV talent contest last year, has also teamed up with Pussycat Dolls and Enrique Inglesias.

"It's absolutely fantastic and I can't wait to get out there and perform all the tracks,” he said.

McElderry also told BBC Newsbeat that his new material was “really up-tempo and really poppy”.

The singer won last year's X Factor, but initially missed out on the Christmas number one spot to Rage Against The Machine.

The US band topped the festive countdown with 'Killing In The Name' following a Facebook campaign.
