Ben Haenow duets with Kelly Clarkson on his new single

London: "The X Factor" 2014 winner Ben Haenow has reportedly collaborated with pop star Kelly Clarkson on his new single "Second Hand Heart".

Ben is thrilled to have bagged the "Stronger" hitmaker - who won "American Idol" in 2002 - for the track and is excited for people to hear the track and his upcoming debut album, reported Femalefirst.

"Ben wanted to make a statement with this song and getting someone of Kelly's stature on it is a good way to start," a source said.

The track is an upbeat ballad and it will be the 30-year-old singer's first music offering since he won the race for the UK's Christmas number spot with a cover of OneRepublic song "Something I Need" last December.
