The pop duo talked about making music together at Glastonbury

The Ting Tings have revealed they will take up Dizzee Rascal's offer and work together.

As recently reported, the rapper met the pair at Glastonbury and is keen to make some music with them.

Lead singer Katie White has now admitted the feeling is mutual.

"We saw Dizzee Rascal at Glastonbury and he told us that he was planning to do a cover of our song for Radio 1's Live Lounge. He was like 'You know, we should work together.'," she said.

Speaking to the Daily Star White added: "We would actually love to do that as he's great. It would be good to do something new and just see what turns out.

"We make quite different music from each other but I think it would be interesting. I've got some ideas of what I'd like us to do but I don't want to give them away."
