Alicia Keys has said that she would love to perform with The White Stripes.

The R&B star admitted she was a huge fan of Jack and Meg White's band.

"They're very raw, very cut and dry," she told The Mirror. "It's, like, drums and guitar. It's that simple, and I love that.

"I think that combining that style with mine...I just think we could do something really interesting that mixes rock and soul together, the blues and emotion, and it could be really touching."
