The Britain’s Got Talent star, who recently released her second album ‘The Gift’, said she was keen to collaborate with other artists.

Boyle, 48, told The Sun: "I’ve got hard competition. But there are certain types of music that you’re good at and certain types that you’re not."

"I mean, would I be good at R&B? I suppose you never know. Maybe me and Rihanna could get together - I could dye my hair purple."

As previously reported, Boyle’s latest effort topped the UK and US album charts earlier this month.
