The Cure's vocalist Robert Smith will help pop singer Ashlee Simpson producing a song.
Ashlee Simpson is to record a duet with
The Cure frontman Robert Smith. The singer, the younger sister of Jessica Simpson, is to collaborate with Smith on her new album, the as-yet-untitled follow-up to 'I Am Me', released in 2005.
It is believed the duo's unlikely pairing has been masterminded by
Fall Out Boy star
Pete Wentz who is rumoured to have dated Ashlee and is close friends with Smith. However, Wentz denies he has anything to do with it, telling Entertainment Weekly: "I doubt I had anything to do with it, because they were friends since she was performing in 'Chicago'. But I definitely only have good things to say about Ashlee - I think the collaboration could be great."
Simpson is also working on tracks with
Keane frontman Tim Rice-Oxley, The Neptunes' Chad Hugo and soul singer
John Legend on the hotly-anticipated LP.
Ashlee, 22, has recently been romantically linked with Hugo as well as Wentz.
