Tony Bennett: "Lady Gaga wants to record an album with me"

Veteran singer Tony Bennett has claimed that Lady Gaga would like to make an album with him.

Bennett was speaking to the Metro when he made the revelation, stating that he spoke to her parents about the potential collaboration.

They said that Gaga would like to make a whole album with Bennett - something which he is "looking forward to". He said:

"She's a very talented person. I was with her parents recently and they said she'd like to make an album with me. I'd like to do that, too. I'm looking forward to it."

Bennett meanwhile commented on a naked sketch he drew of Lady Gaga last year for charity, which managed to raise $30,000. When asked why he did it, Bennett replied:

"It was the right thing to do. I paint every day. Some days I paint models nude – like Michelangelo when he did the Vatican. The sketch I did of her sold for $30,000 and the money went to her charity."
