If the music business doesn’t work out for him, Liam Payne is considering a career as a David Beckham lookalike.

The One Direction star attended the launch party for Beck’s H&M swimwear collection last week and it was pointed out how much the pair look like each other!

Liam said, ”People have been saying that a lot recently. It’s probably the most flattering thing anybody can say.

”Becks is pretty much a legend and a hero of all of ours and I do really admire his style. I don’t think anyone can match him but I’ll take it.

”If it all packs in, at least I’ll have a job as a lookalike.”

However, the 20-year-old star is worried that his fans think he’s copying David’s style a little too much, as they both have matching quiff hairstyles, tattoos on their arms and a similar taste in clothes.

Liam said, ”The fans are always pointing it out on Twitter. I’m beginning to worry he’ll think I’m a stalker.

”They make out like if he buys a red jumper, the next day I’m out in a red jumper. I just think the man is a legend.”

Strangers
You know them to see and that person seems cool. You probably think the two of you might really hit it off and want to state this fact too. But you don’t want to come off too strong either, so you just wait for the perfect opportunity to move onto the next friendship stage.

Acquaintances
Work colleagues, lecture buddies or you just both happen to go to the exact same coffee shop at the same time, every morning. This is the person that you always manage to start some conversation with. It could be about the weather or your favourite television programme, either ways the small talk is surprisingly enjoyable.

Allies
Your go to person for anything. They can provide you info on a certain topic or just be the one person you need to rant to about something or anything. No matter the scenario, work or college related, you’ve got each other’s back.

Friends
You’ve finally reached this stage and are not sure how it exactly happened, but it has. You know, you’ve officially become friends with this person, when you both make the effort to meet up outside designated work or college hours.

Best Friends
This is something that can take time or sometimes it can happen instantly. But how do you know you have a best friend in the first place? Well, a best friend is usually someone who understands you, more than you understand yourself. They’ve always got your back and let’s face it, you’re not sure where you would be without them.

We bet Kendall Jenner wished the ground could have swallowed her up after her mortifying slip of the tongue on live TV during the 2014 Billboard Music Awards last night.

Kendall looked stunning when she was called up on stage to introduce the Aussie band 5 Seconds of Summer.

The 18-year-old reality TV star and model started off confident, but then she flubbed one of her lines, almost calling the group One Direction!

“You guys! I’m the worst reader,” she said.

Kendall briefly dated One Directioner Harry Styles earlier this year – which makes the moment a hundred times worse!

After the cringe moment, #kendallyouhadonejob started trending on Twitter. Kendall tweeted later on, “Anndddd as if I wasn’t nervous already!!!!#NeverLeavinMyContactsAtHomeAgain! #LOL #LessonLearned.”

Poor Kendall, we feel your pain!

Feeling a little worse for wear after the weekend? Well then, you might want to give this article a miss!

New research has suggested that even one big boozy night out could cause permanent damage to their health.

Researchers in the US say that even one heavy drinking session can cause bacteria to leak from the gut, causing increased levels of toxins in the blood.

Eek!

The researchers, at the University of Massachusetts Medical School, say these toxins cause the body to produce immune cells involved in fever, inflammation and tissue destruction.

“We found that a single alcohol binge can elicit an immune response, potentially impacting the health of an otherwise healthy individual,” said lead author Gyongyi Szabo. “Our observations suggest that an alcohol binge is more dangerous than previously thought.”

Binge drinking is defined by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) as five or more drinks for men, or four or more drinks for women, in about two hours, depending on body weight.

Some scary post-weekend reading!

Modern Family star, Ariel Winter showed off her stunning new hair colour – and we are obsessed with it!

The actress first dyed her hair back in March but it seems she has now gone an even deeper shade.

Ariel joked that she was inspired by her namesake character in The Little Mermaid.

The hair colour makes a big difference to the actress’ usual hair colour which is a deep brunette.

We hope she keeps it, it’s simply stunning!

Zooey Deschanel may only be 34 years-old but her no make-up selfie makes her look like a teenager!

The New Girl actress uploaded the cute snap to her Instagram with the caption: “Good Morning. #nomakeup #nofilter.”

While it isn’t clear if the quirky actress was poking some fun at other celebs who love to take perfect photos of themselves with no make-up on, Zooey is still clearly stunning in the photo.

Surely this is proof she doesn’t need make-up at all!

Kim Kardashian is reportedly still livid with comedian, Joan Rivers after she made a crude joke about baby North West.

Although the incident happened quite a few months ago, it seems Kim is still furious about it and ordered Joan to stay away from her.

It was reported that Kim and her sister, Khloe had been sat next to Joan at the recent NBC Upfronts but they demanded she be moved away from them.

A source described: “Khloe and Kim were seated next to Joan Rivers, but they had them move her. [They] both don’t want drama and can’t fake it anymore with Joan, so they asked staff to keep them separate.”

Joan caused controversy after she called Kim’s daughter, Nori “ugly” as well as adding that the baby was, “desperately in need of a waxing.”

We’re sure Joan wasn’t expecting a welcome from the Kardashian sisters!

It has been rumoured that Cheryl Cole has been dating Kimberly Walsh’s brother, Adam!

The two were seen together first over 11 years ago but now it seems they have decided to give things another go.

Cheryl once spoke of Adam with great fondness, even calling him the “male version” of herself – aww!

She said: “We’d never met before but we just clicked and everything’s going great … He’s like the male version of me and we’re getting along just fine.”

Despite going their separate ways all those years ago it seems the two have found their way back to each other.

We can only guess that Kimberly is over the moon that her best friend and brother have found love together.

Everyone has been speculating who Ed Sheeran’s song, Don’t, is written about – and now we know!

Ed appeared on The Ellen Show to talk about his new album, X, when he told Ellen who he wrote about.

It was about Ellen! We knew it…

It doesn’t look as if Ellen wants to talk about it thought, perhaps she is worried Portia is watching!

Hopefully Ed will reveal who the angry song is about one day, but for now it’s a guessing game.

Taylor? Ellie?
