Posted November 27, 200915 yr AMERICAN superstar Pink hooked up with Paolo Nutini when the Scots singer played a gig in Amsterdam. The So What singer had raved about the hot Scot and his album Sunny Side Up last month on Twitter, saying: “It makes me love music again. I’ve got a big goofy smile on my face.” And she begged to meet him backstage after his concert in Holland - where she was spotted singing along to the Paisley-born hunk’s set. Paolo, who appeared on Children In Need on Friday and is promoting new single Pencil Full Of Lead, told the Razz: “I met Pink in Amsterdam. She was very nice, she enjoyed the concert then came and said hi.” Pink was seen mouthing the lyrics to all of Paolo’s songs as she stood beside the mixing desk at the gig. Paolo added: “I’m not sure where she watched from as I was a bit busy at the time. I’m sure she had a good spot.” After the gig, Paolo and Pink spent time chatting backstage and Paolo said it’s not out of the question for the two to duet in the future. He said: “There are tracks on her album that focus on her as a singer more than others and those tracks sounds wicked. “It’s not something I would have had on the cards but having met her, it might be fun to do something together - as long as I don’t have to go up on a trapeze or find myself on a tricycle.” As the biggest-selling male artist of the year, Paolo is on a high and he’s just announced two gigs at London’s Albert Hall on April 8 and 9 next year. The bookings come just after he appeared at a Children In Need gig performing with Take That, Paul McCartney, Dizzee Rascal and Lily Allen. Although he performed Pencil Full Of Lead and Last Request on the night, he claimed he asked to duet with Dame Shirley Bassey. He said: “It was wicked but I was a bit disappointed. We were asked at the time who we wanted to duet with and I’d love to duet with Shirley Bassey, but Dizzee Rascal got the honour instead. “I’d love to try to coax Shirley Bassey to sing something with me in the future. Her music is flawless.” Paolo also spoke about X Factor Lloyd’s rendition of his song Last Request - even though he’s not had a chance to watch it yet. Paolo said: “It’s good that Lloyd covered it but I’ve been asked a few times about the show and it doesn’t seem like a good thing in general for music. “Instead of kids growing up and wanting to get into a band their aspiration is to stand in front of Dannii Minogue and be told if they are good enough. “I haven’t seen or heard Lloyd’s rendition but maybe I should go on YouTube. “Anything has to be better than those two dudes with spiky hair.”
