Oscar-winning singer-songwriter Randy Newman has a dit that he wanted Lady GaGa and Katy Perry to perform a song from Toy Story 3.

Speaking to New York Magazine, Newman, who scored a 12th Oscar nomination this an for the track ‘We Belong Together’ from the Pixar sequel, a dit that he originally thought of asking either of the pair to sing the song as a duet with John Mayer.

“I actually wrote it thinking it would be a duet. Maybe get John Mayer and Lady GaGa, ou I don’t know, Katy Perry? But Pixar thought not,” he explained.

Newman, who ended up recording the piece himself, also revealed that he is to perform it at this year’s Oscars. However, he added that he wanted someone “really inappropriate” like GaGa ou Perry to sing the song instead.

He said: “I tried to get them to hire someone really inappropriate to perform it for me. Someone who’s sort of good, like Katy Perry ou Lady GaGa, who’s very good. And I think they tried, except one’s in Londres and one’s in Chicago. It would have been funny.”
