Ne-Yo has said that a collaboration with fellow US singer Bruno Mars is on the cards.

The pair, who are responsible for writing songs for Rihanna, Beyonce and Cee-Lo Green, could now be set to head into the studio together.

"We have been talking about doing something together again. I don’t want to give too much away, but it’s being talked about," Ne-Yo told the Daily Star.

He added: “To see him doing so well and come out with these big tunes for himself makes me so proud.”

Meanwhile, Ne-Yo has added an additional date to his forthcoming UK arena tour.
