Eurovision star Ewen denies Barlow rumours

Eurovision hopeful Jade Ewen has dismissed reports that Gary Barlow has written songs for her album.

The 21-year-old singer, who will perform alongside Andrew Lloyd Webber at Saturday's Eurovision Song Contest, is currently working on her debut album for an autumn release.

Discussing the Barlow rumours, Ewen told DS: "I don't know where that's come from because I've not met him! I mean, if he offered me a song I would definitely love it but I haven't heard anything yet."

However, Ewen revealed that she is working with Ina Wroldsen, who has written hits for The Saturdays and Pussycat Dolls, and Robbie Williams's former songwriting partner Guy Chambers.

She also admitted that her album will be "very different" from her Eurovision song 'It's My Time', which was written by Lloyd Webber and US songwriter Diane Warren.

"I've done a lot of dancing from a young age so I want to incorporate that into my album and my gigs," she said.

"There will be ballads of course - Diane Warren wants to do a couple more songs - but they'll probably be a bit more Whitney or Celine-ish."
