The Swedish pop beauty and the 'After the Afterparty' hitmaker met for the first time last month and fuelled speculation they were working on a collaboration by sharing a photo together on social media.

Although nothing is planned as of yet, the 'Ain't Your Fault' singer is keen to do something with the brunette beauty because she's only ever done male collaborations before including 'Girls Like' featuring Tinie Tempah and 'Never Forget You' with MNEK.

Speaking exclusively to BANG Showbiz on the red carpet at the BBC Music Awards at ExCeL London on Monday (12.12.16), she said: "I would love to. I think she is amazing. I love her sound and she is a great person as well.

"Of all the collaborations I've been doing, they've all been with guys. So I would love to do something girl power."

as promised her second album will be released in early 2017.

The 'Lush Life' hitmaker has been dying to get her follow-up to 2014's '1', which was originally slated to be released in February, out for her fans and has finally given an update on the release date.

She told Harper's Bazaar magazine: "It's coming in January. I have been pushing it for literally a year. It was supposed to come out February 2016 and I was like, it's coming out summer, it's coming out after summer, it's coming out in the fall, and then in the winter."

The Swedish pop beauty believes there is a song for everybody on the record, which consists of love ballads to dance anthems.

She said: "It's a little mixed. It's pop but there are some rhythmic songs, some dance songs, some ballads. I think that everyone will like at least one song."
