Rihanna lands Coldplay duet for Grammys

Rihanna's longtime dream of performing with Coldplay has come true - the pop star will team up with the British band on stage at the Grammys next month (Feb12).

Coldplay frontman Chris Martin invited the Umbrella hitmaker to appear on the group's most recent album, Mylo Xyloto, to sing vocals on their Princess of China track.

Rihanna heaped praise on Chris Martin's songwriting skills after the studio session, and insisted she was desperate to perform live with the rockers.

They have now arranged a date to team up - at the Grammys on 12 February (12).

In a post on her Twitter.com page, Rihanna writes, “My friends Coldplay and I will be sharing the stage for a performance at this year's Annual Grammy Awards!"

The pop star is nominated for four awards at the event.
