Alexandra Burke has hit back at DJ Fresh's claims that she 'chased' him for a collaboration.

The Dibby Dibby Sound hitmaker previously told Hits Radio presenter Darryl Morris that he had turned down the chance to work with the X Factor winner.

Fresh said: "One of the massive X Factor people was chasing me around these dressing rooms.

"[She was] leaving notes for me everywhere saying they wanted to work with me and then kind of got up in my face and gave me their phone number and was like, 'make sure you call me, make sure you call me' and I was already thinking, that you're a good singer and stuff, but you just wouldn't fit on my music and I already knew that I wasn't going to be calling her."

He added: "It was really awkward… She's very sweet and it's just awkward because you can't really explain it to somebody. You don't want to be offensive but it's kind of like you just wouldn't fit on what I do."

However, Burke has since taken to Twitter to rubbish his accusations, writing: "DJ FRESH. Chill babe. NOBODY WAS LEAVING YOU NOTES OR CHASING YOU FOR A DUET. Love your music but I didn't beg you for anything...
