Lady
Gaga and Beyoncé may soon have the same man in their
lives – Tony Bennett!
The
legendary vocalist told Access Hollywood’s Scott Evans at his 90th
birthday celebration in New York City on Wednesday night that he’s hoping to
collaborate musically with the “Formation” singer.
“I
like Beyoncé,”
Tony said, when asked which star he wants to join him in the studio next.
“I’d like to do something with her someday.”

While
Tony chuckled at the idea of singing Beyoncé’s hit “Single
Ladies,” it wouldn’t be the first time he’s entered the pop music realm.
He
and Gaga famously teamed up for their 2014 jazz album “Cheek to
Cheek,” and the partnership left a lasting impression on him.

“We’re
great, great friends. I just know how much talent she has, and she’s so big
she’s just going to be a part of our life in the entertainment world
forever,” Tony said of Gaga.
Although he’s looking forward to having another famous duet partner, Tony said he and
Gaga have plans to work together again, too.
“We
are. Eventually, we’re going to do it,” he said of a possible follow-up to
“Cheek to Cheek,” adding that he knows a future project with the
superstar would be “a lot of fun.”
As
for entering an impressive new decade, Tony said his attitude doesn’t reflect
his age.

“I
feel like I’m 45!” he told Access, explaining why his youthful energy and
work ethic may transcend his years.
“To
me, life is a great gift. … I think if more people realized that, they’ll be
nicer to one another throughout the world. It’s a great gift to be alive,”
he said.
