Joss Stone Recounts Her Impromptu, 'Very Scary' Performance With James Brown

In the video above, Stone explains to HuffPost Live how she was unexpectedly asked to perform with "The Godfather Of Funk" while on the "Friday Night with Jonathan Ross" show in June 2005."I was shaking like a leaf," Stone told host Caroline Modarressy-Tehrani on Thursday.Stone, a soulful singer herself, had planned on singing with Brown on 'Friday Night with Jonathan Ross'. Their duet was abruptly cancelled the week before they were slated to go on, which Stone called "not abnormal". So when Stone was called up to stage by 'The Godfather of Funk', she was "a bit unprepared.""He called me up and we did some songs.
