The grapevine suggests PC will be recording an album soon, in collaboration with an international singer.
It's not just her drop-dead physical attributes that make Priyanka Chopra attractive. She can also hum her way through a storm. Music is in her genes; her father Dr Ashok Chopra is a trained singer and has enthralled audiences with his Mohammad Rafi songs on a number of occasions.
As of now some desi websites are buzzing with the news that Piggy Chops will cut an international album. And BT managed to find out that on her recent trip to the US, she did have a couple of closed-door meetings with some music giants. Our source says, "Priyanka even met with Lady Gaga. And, in all likelihood the 25-year-old American singer-songwriter, who is a rage and our very own B-town beauty may just collaborate on an album."
The news of Priyanka lending her voice to a pop album is exciting. If it happens she will be the first Bollywood actress to cut an international album. PC's official spokesperson however chose to play it safe, "Priyanka and Lady Gaga did meet at a concert. They spoke at length backstage. However, there is no collaboration happening between them."
No matter what their official stance on this is, an eyewitness maintains, "PC and Lady Gaga did talk about music at length. The diva of pop told her how fascinated she is with India and Bollywood. She also told Priyanka that she is keen to visit India and learn about its music and culture." There are also chances that PC will host Lady Gaga if and when the popstar does make a trip to this part of the globe.
Will it be Lady Gaga?
Is Priyanka going to collaborate with Lady Gaga? Well, the latter has had quite a few collaborations with other singers in the past few years...
Before shooting to fame, she recorded a couple of songs with hip-hop singer Grandmaster Melle Mel on a project.
Throughout 2007, Gaga joined hands with artist Lady Starlight, who helped create her on-stage fashions. In her early days she also collaborated with Akon.
After shooting to fame, Gaga paired up with Elton John to record an original duet for the animated feature film Gnomeo and Juliet that released recently.
