Starboy is about to get a Witness.

Rumour has it Katy Perry and The Weeknd are about to cook up some major hits together in the studio after the pair were spotted out for dinner along with a bunch of A-list music producers.

Fans speculated a potential romance after the 'Bon Appétit' singer was seen dining with the Canadian singer but E! News confirm that their collaboration is strictly professional.

Ah, yeah

Hey!
Now, nothing ever last forever, no
One minute you're here and the next you're gone
So I respect you, wanna take it slow
I need a mental receipt to know this moment I owe

Do you mind if I steal a kiss, tho? (Chop, chop)
A little souvenir, can I steal it from you?
To memorize the way you shock me
The way you move it here (hey)
Just wanna feel it from you (hey)

Don't be afraid to catch feels
Ride drop top and chase thrills (hey)
I know you ain't afraid to pop pills (hey)
Baby, I know you ain't scared to catch feels
Feels with me

I'm your window shopper, sucker for your love, oh
I'm wearing your goggles, virtual reality
It ain't what it cost you, it might be a dollar
As long as it shocks you, memory, electricity

Do you mind if I steal a kiss, tho? (Chop, chop)
A little souvenir, can I steal it from you? (Oh, yeah)
To memorize the way you shock me (yeah)
The way you move it here (hey)
Just wanna feel it from you (hey)

Don't be afraid to catch feels (ha)
Ride drop top and chase thrills (oh-oh-oh, oh)
I know you ain't afraid to pop pills (hey)
Baby, I know you ain't scared to catch feels (straight up)
Feels with me (woah)

Goddamn, I know you love to make an entrance (babe)
Do you like getting paid or getting paid attention? (Like, woah)
You mixed the wrong guys with the right intentions
In the same bed, but it still feel long distance (yeah, yeah)
She's looking for a little more consistency (I know)
But when you stop looking, you gon' find what's meant to be
And honestly, I'm way too done with the hoes (no)
I cut off all my exes for your x and o's
I feel my old flings was just preparing me (me)
When I say I want you, say it back, parakeet (par')
Fly in first-class through the air, Airbnb (woah)
I'm the best you had, you just be comparing me to me (woah)
I'ma at this at you, if I put you on my phone (woah)
And upload it, it'll get maximum views
I came in through in the clutch with the lipsticks and phones
Wear your fave cologne just to get you alone

Don't be afraid to catch feels (ha)
(Don't be afraid to catch these feels)
Ride drop top and chase thrills (yeah)
(Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah)
I know you ain't afraid to pop pills (I know)
Baby, I know you ain't scared to catch feels
(Woah, woah, woah)
Feels with me

Don't be afraid to catch feels (no, no)
Don't be afraid, baby
Don't be afraid
Ride drop top and chase thrills (woah, okay)
I know you ain't afraid to pop pills
I know, I know, I know
Baby, I know you ain't scared to catch feels
Feels with me

"They are discussing working together," E! have reported. "They aren't dating. Abel is always thinking about new collaborations with talented artists."

Adding they were joined by a "few producer types", the source commented that The Weeknd "has many female friends and most of them are in the industry."

Ariana Grande, Beyoncé and Sia are just a few of the superstars he has collaborated with in the past, while he has recorded three songs with Lana Del Rey in the past three years.

Katy Perry released her fourth album Witness earlier this year, featuring a big hip-hop presence from Nicki Minaj and Migos, so could be working on a re-release as she is on tour supporting the album until next summer.

Although there may be a bigger chance of Katy featuring on The Weeknd's next album as the follow-up to Starboy is expected to drop in 2018.

Will anything come of this? As always, we'll have to wait and see, but two of pop's biggest hitmakers uniting sounds incredibly promising.

They know what is what
But they don't know what is what
They just strut
What the fuck?

A tiger
Don't lose no sleep
Don't need opinions
From a shellfish or a sheep
Don't you come for me
No, not today
You're calculated
I got your number
'Cause you're a joker
And I'm a courtside killer queen
And you will kiss the ring
You best believe

So keep calm, honey, I'ma stick around
For more than a minute, get used to it
Funny my name keeps comin' outcho mouth
'Cause I stay winning
Lay 'em up like

Swish, swish, bish
Another one in the basket
Can't touch this
Another one in the casket

Your game is tired
You should retire
You're 'bout cute as
An old coupon expired
And karma's not a liar
She keeps receipts

So keep calm, honey, I'ma stick around
For more than a minute, get used to it
Funny my name keeps comin' outcho mouth
'Cause I stay winning
Lay 'em up like

Swish, swish, bish
Another one in the basket
Can't touch this
Another one in the casket
Swish, swish, bish
Another one in the basket
Can't touch this
Another one in the casket

They know what is what
But they don't know what is what
(Katy Perry)
They just know what is what
(Young Money)
But they don't know what is what
They just know what is what
But they don't know what is what
They just strut
Hahaha, yo
What the fuck?

Pink Ferragamo sliders on deck
Silly rap beefs just get me more checks
My life is a movie, I'm never off set
Me and my amigos (no, not Offset)
Swish swish, aww I got them upset
But my shooters'll make 'em dance like dubstep
Swish, swish, aww, my haters is obsessed
'Cause I make M's, they get much less

Don't be tryna double back
I already despise you
All that fake love you showin'
Couldn't even disguise you
Ran? When? Nicki gettin' tan
Mirror mirror who's the fairest bitch in all the land?

Damn, man, this bitch is a Stan
Muah, muah, the generous queen will kiss a fan
Ass goodbye, I'ma be riding by
I'ma tell my n- Biggz, yeah that's tha guy
A star's a star, da ha da ha
They never thought the swish god would take it this far
Get my pimp cup, this is pimp shit, baby
I only rock with Queens, so I'm makin' hits with Katy

Swish, swish, bish
Another one in the basket
Can't touch this
Another one in the casket

They know what is what
(Do they know?)
But they don't know what is what
They just know what is what
But they don't know what is what
They just know what is what
But they don't know what is what
They just strut
What the...
