Ricky Martin says working with Taylor Swift wasn't planned

Ricky Martin admits that he wasn't expecting to perform live with Taylor Swift recently.

The singer joined forces with the US star at her show in Miami on October 27.

They ran through his hit track 'Livin' La Vida Loca' as Swift continued her penchant for inviting guests on stage.

Speaking to Entertainment Tonight, Martin said that the collaboration was a last-minute thing.

He revealed: "It's one of those things, serendipity. I really wanted to see her show 'cause I heard it was amazing - and it is amazing.

"And then she says, 'Shall we do it? OK, let's do it!' Then I walked on stage and it felt amazing, and she's an incredible human being."

Swift meanwhile spoke out in praise of Martin before their slot, saying:

"When he came out, he paved the way for so many incredible Latin artists to cross over to pop and become huge and make amazing music.

"He’s such an inspiring person, I’m so lucky to have him here tonight."

The '1989' star has also performed with the likes of Mick Jagger, Selena Gomez and Lisa Kudrow on her North America tour.
