Sugababes claim the hottest producer in the world- Timbaland- wants to work with them.

They told 'The Star' that Tim and Justin Timberlake approached them about recording together when they were in the UK.

Amelle told the newspaper: Timbaland is keen on us. He actually asked us to do stuff with him before.

We ended up spending a lot of time with him and Justin last year because they were working on the Madonna album at the same studio as us.

Sugababes have previously worked with US hip hop producer Dallas Austin and Girls Alouds production team Xenomania.

They release single Denial this week.
