Justin Timberlake and Madonna emerge from a west London studio looking exhausted after their first day recording together.
The two superstars are collaborating on the Queen of Pop’s new album – and they’ve drafted in America’s top producer Timbaland to put it together.
Justin, 26, revealed: “I’ve been working on new music but it’s not for myself. I’m working on some stuff for Madonna.”
The 48-year-old singer caused havoc outside the studio last night as she demanded her car be brought to the back door and parked on the pavement so nobody would see her escape.
JT only flew in from LA yesterday. He is over here for a few weeks preparing for the UK leg of his current world tour.
Madonna, who is famous for reinventing herself, said this time her album – which is due out in November – will have a hiphop feel.

Justin Timberlake is busy writing songs for Madonna.
The former N’Sync star is collaborating with the Queen Of Pop on her forthcoming album, which is due out in November.
Justin confirmed: “I have been working on some new music.
“But it’s not for myself I’m writing for other people. I’m working on some stuff for Madonna.”
Justin headed into a West London studio yesterday with Madge.
He is in the country for a few weeks as he prepares to kick off the UK leg of his current world tour.
Madonna is famous for reinventing herself and this time her album will have a real hip-hop feel.
She has lined up a Who’s Who of the genre’s megastars, including Timberlake’s producer pal Timbaland to help her achieve R&B credibility.
Hip-hop legend Pharrell Williams is already working on at least four tracks and his fingerprints look set to be all over the new release.
Madge’s last offering, Confessions On A Dance Floor, was a massive success, with Brit DJ and producer Stuart Price the main influence on the 2005 album.
There will also be some dancy Price-produced tracks on the new offering and she has also been joined by Chicago house DJ and producer Felix Da Housecat in the studio. A source told me: “Confessions was a worldwide smash but this will be different once again.
“The last album was a credible disco record and Madonna wants to give hip-hop the same treatment this time.
“It’s not all hip-hop though, there are a lot of producers from a lot of genres in there. It could be her most ambitious project yet.”

Madonna going to / leaving the gym in London (April 07 2007)

Madonna and the Red Hot Chili Peppers are among acts expected to perform at the Live Earth concert in London on July 7 to raise awareness about climate change, organisers said on Tuesday.
Built on the model Bob Geldof used for the anti-poverty Live 8 concerts in 2005, Live Earth will be held in Johannesburg, London, Rio de Janeiro, Shanghai, Sydney and Tokyo.
A U.S. venue has yet to be finalised as environmental campaigner Al Gore faces Republican opposition to holding one of the seven gigs in Washington.
“By attracting an audience of billions, we hope Live Earth will launch a global campaign giving a critical mass of people around the world the tools they need to help solve the climate crisis,” Gore said in a statement.
Gore, whose climate change documentary “An Inconvenient Truth” won an Oscar this year, is spearheading efforts to recruit the world of pop music to his cause.
Also due to appear at Wembley Stadium are Beastie Boys, Black Eyed Peas, Corinne Bailey Rae, Duran Duran, Genesis, James Blunt and Snow Patrol.
Registration for tickets to the London concert opens from April 13 to 16 on the Web site www.livenation.co.uk/liveearth.
Organisers are hoping to attract an audience of up to two billion people.

Madonna, Genesis, James Blunt and the Red Hot Chili Peppers will be among the headliners at the London show of the global series of Live Earth concerts.
They will be joined at Wembley Stadium by groups including Foo Fighters, Duran Duran, Snow Patrol and Razorlight.
Seven Live Earth shows will take place around the world on 7 July as a way of highlighting climate change.
Some of the acts had already endorsed the project but Wembley’s full line-up had not previously been confirmed.

A total of 17 acts have been announced for Wembley, with the promise of more to follow.
The diverse line-up include rap group The Beastie Boys, singer-songwriters David Gray and Damien Rice, and R&B pianist John Legend.
Black Eyed Peas, Bloc Party, Corinne Bailey Rae, Keane and Paolo Nutini complete the bill so far.
The organisers said that tickets would be allocated by a ballot, and fans would be able to register their interest online for 72 hours from 1200 BST on Friday.
Tickets, priced at £55 each, would be limited to two per applicant and could then be purchased from Wednesday 18 April.
Further details were to be released on Tuesday regarding the US leg of Live Earth, the organisers promised.
There will also be concerts in Johannesburg, Rio de Janeiro, Shanghai, Sydney and Tokyo.
The concerts aim to set a “green example” for other music events by using measures such as eco-friendly electricity, sustainable lighting and carbon-neutral travel.
Former US Vice-President Al Gore, who is one of those involved in organising the series of events, said he expected Live Earth to attract “an audience of billions”.
“We hope Live Earth will launch a global campaign, giving a critical mass of people around the world the tools they need to help solve the climate crisis.”
All profits will go to organisations including the Alliance for Climate Protection, the Climate Group and Stop Climate Chaos.
