Cheryl Cole has recorded a song with Dizzee Rascal for her forthcoming album, it has emerged.

The pair worked on the track, entitled 'Everybody, Everyone', after Cole approached the British grime star.

"It was all Cheryl's idea. She's a big fan of Dizzee and his collaborations with other artists,” a source told The Sun.

“They got on really well and were on the same level. They had a good laugh together. Dizzee had a sparkle in his eye for her." Rascal has previously worked with the likes of Florence & The Machine and Shakira.

Cole's new album 'Messy Little Raindrops' is the follow-up to 2009's '3 Words' and is released on November 1.
