Kelly Rowland will have her dancing shoes on during her upcoming Australian visit.

The former Destiny's Child diva is remaining tight-lipped about whether rumours she will be performing at Sydney's Mardi Gras are true.

But following the global success of When Love Takes Over, her Grammy Award-winning song with French DJ David Guetta, Rowland admits she's got a case of dance fever.

Rowland said the song was inspired by seeing Guetta perform at a French nightclub.

"(It was) just the feeling I felt that night of being in the club and looking at everybody just loving music - those people looked like they wanted to explode when David was spinning," Rowland told AAP from Miami.

"I was like, I want people to feel like that when they hear this song, like dancing and not caring what time it is or what you have on.

"You know what I mean? It's just living in that moment. It's so important."

A perfect anthem to perform at Mardi Gras then?

"I don't know, we'll see," she said carefully.

"I am there promoting with David, so we'll see what happens."

When Love Takes Over was co-written by Australian twins Miriam and Olivia Nervo.

The former models turned songwriters are also reported to be writing songs for Britney Spears and Beyonce.

"I love writing with other artists and writers, and when I got a chance to go into the studio with Australia's own Nervo, Mim and Liv, we all wrote When Love Takes Over together," Rowland said.

"We had fun above anything. We did it right inside of my hotel room, and we were just bouncing off each other.

"There was so much energy and it was my very first meeting with them. The first meeting turned into a hit record, so I'm just so happy I got a chance to know the girls."

Dance music will be a major inspiration on Rowland's new album, which she is currently writing and recording.

She has laid down 35 songs written with artists like Nelly and Ne-yo but is only happy with about six of them.

"I'm very particular, very picky," she laughed.
