Calvin Harris reveals Kylie nerves

Calvin Harris has admitted that he barely spoke to Kylie Minogue when they worked together on her X album.

The music producer confirmed that he felt nervous around the pop princess and wasn't confident enough to share many of his ideas for the project.

Speaking to the Liverpool Daily Post, he explained: "I just talked to her like I'd talk to anybody else - I tried not to offend her, but I tended to keep myself to myself.

"There's almost always another writer in the room with me. During a lot of the sessions I did with Kylie, I said very, very little and just nodded when I thought it was a good time to nod, or went to the toilet when I needed to and that was it."

He added: "Although I had lots of ideas, I found it hard to articulate them and didn't like to ask if she'd mind trying them out. That was one of my first writing sessions, so it wasn't great. I didn't really know what to do. What do you do when you're in a room with Kylie?"

Despite the awkwardness of the sessions, Harris has already announced that he will work with Minogue again next year.
