Justin Bieber surprised fans in a Manchester club last night by offering them an unexpected preview of his new song, Close To You.

Taking a well-deserved night off from his Purpose world tour, the 22-year-old Canadian headed to Tiger Tiger’s Taboo student night around midnight after spending the evening with the Manchester Hockey team.

A source told The Sun that the singer “was up partying with people” before he “jumped into the DJ booth to play two new tracks”.

A stream of pictures and videos of Biebs in the club appeared online once he was spotted.

 

Meanwhile, Manchester fans who had opted to stay at home for the night took to Twitter to express their regret over missing the singer.

Now all we have to do is get him to Coppers…

As Ariana Grande questions her decision to join Ellen for Halloween, her Irish fans are celebrating their inclusion in her upcoming European tour.

This morning, the Side To Side singer took to Twitter to reveal when and where she’ll be gigging in Europe next year and, much to her fans’ delight, Ireland made the cut.

As part of the 18 city tour, the former Disney star will play Dublin’s 3 Arena on May 20 2017.

While ticket sale information has yet to be announced, the star’s Irish fans are already sharing their excitement online.

Twitter has been flooded with comments like: “@ArianaGrande is coming to Dublin.. I’m having an anxiety attack.. DYING!!!”  And: “BEST MORNING OF MY LIFE…woke up to @ArianaGrande announcing a Dublin Gig.  FML IM DYING BYEEEE SEE YOU THE 20th of May girly #OBSESSED (sic).”

 

 

 

With so much enthusiasm at the mere mention of a Dublin gig, we think Ariana is in for a treat!

With Zayn penning an autobiography, Harry turning to acting and Niall releasing his first individual single, it was only a matter of time before Liam stepped forward with his post One D plans.

Having just signed a lucrative record deal with American label Republic Records, the 23-year-old singer took to Twitter to announce his excitement.

But as Liam celebrated the launch of his solo career, his fans started celebrating something else altogether.

 

I miss you!…the things you make me do home soon!

Last night, the X Factor star became a trending topic on Twitter after writing: “Amazing to have signed to @RepublicRecords I am celebrating as I tweet thank you so much for accepting me to your roster of amazing artists.”

 

Initially fans started the hashtag “CongratsLiam” in response to the news, but as the tag gained momentum those who were a little late to the conversation thought followers were celebrating the confirmation of rumours that Liam is about to become a dad – something which has never been clarified by the star or his partner, Cheryl.

The situation quickly generated Twitter gold as users eventually figured out that “Chiam” had not shared any baby news *sadface*.

It's been a wild few months for Niall Horan between opening up his own golf management agency to debuting his first solo single this month.

It's safe to say we all love Niall, but this open letter to his fans has just made us melt. He begins by thanking his fans for all of the support.

"Thank you for your incredible reaction to my first solo song. I'm simply blown away by the love This Town is getting. You never fail to surprise me with your passion and support.

"I'm back in London at the moment. It's really good to be back at home after doing loads of travelling," he wrote in a newsletter on his website.

"Wrote some good stuff and met some really cool people. Then I went up to the Ryder Cup which was a great week. So yeah. It's good to be home."

Niall then revealed he's a bit anxious to perform on The Graham Norton Show, which is understandable since he's used to having three other guys behind him.

"I'm doing my first TV performance this week on Graham Norton which is really nerve wrecking and exciting all at the same time. I'll be doing tv shows over the coming weeks too.

"Also I'm doing the final bits of writing over the next couple of weeks and then it's time to record the album. Can't wait to share the album with you all.

"Love you all very much and thank you all again," he added.

Told you you'd love him even more.

Former Destiny’s Child star LaTavia Roberson fell head first into an awkward moment last night after a tweet from her account left people wondering who she is.

The 34-year-old Texan – who was one of the band’s original members – used Twitter to thank fans on behalf of herself, Beyoncé, Kelly Rowland, Michelle Williams and LeToya Luckett for their support, but was quickly met with questions surrounding her identity.

The actress wrote: “I just wanna say from Myself @KELLYROWLAND @Beyonce @LeToyaLuckett & @RealMichelleW we have the best fans individually and collectively WE [heart] U.”

After the message got fans wondering what LaTavia’s role in Destiny’s Child actually was, the mother jumped on the defensive.

Responding to a tweet asking her who she is, the singer wrote: “LaTavia Marie Roberson founding member of the ICONIC girl group Destiny’s Child.”

When another site user criticised her for staying in the band for “5 minutes”, LaTavia fired back: “Naw I was in there long enough to get to 2 Grammys.”

And when branded as the “queen of not singing leads”, the star bragged about receiving royalties on DC’s music.

“No need to sing lead when you wrote on the album #Royalties #checkTHAT,” she quipped.

Sadly, all but the original tweet have since been deleted.

Earlier this week, Justin Bieber was attacked in a Munich nightclub for accidentally bumping off a random stranger.

And it seems the incident has left the singer in foul form, as today a video emerged of him seemingly telling his own fans that they “suck”.

The new clip – which was filmed in Norway as the star passed through with his Purpose World Tour – shows the 22-year-old Canadian and his crew walking past a group of excited fans, but as his followers try to get his attention, the performer – who otherwise ignored the group – can be heard saying “You guys suck”.

As reported by The Irish Mirror, those recording the footage can be heard letting out a disappointed sigh as Justin strolls away.

While it is not totally clear as to whether or not JB meant to direct the insult at the group, we hope he says Sorry to those poor fans.

Few bands have fans as obsessive as One Direction, so it’s no great surprise that even the smallest hint of the band’s reunion has sent their followers into total overdrive.

Despite announcing their hiatus earlier this year, a button labelled “future events” recently appeared on One D’s official website and fans are taking it as a major sign that their beloved Liam, Niall, Harry and Louis are planning to regroup.

It is unclear as to when exactly the button appeared, but according to The Express until recently the tour section of their site only included a “past events” section.

But just as a “ThisIsNotTheEndOfOneDirection” hashtag began to produce gold on Twitter, fans were floored as the “future events” button was once again deleted.

 

And as if that wasn't bad enough, it has now been reported that the lads could be headed for the Irish High Court.

While it is not yet known what the case relates to, the Irish Independent has reported that a County Louth law firm has issued action on behalf of a client named David Lewis in which all five of the band’s original members as well as three songwriters who worked on Story of My Life are named.

This news has further rocked the band’s so-called “fandom”.

As an international superstar you’d imagine Liam Payne must be pretty hard to surprise in the present department.  But thanks to some super thoughtful One D fans, the singer is about to receive a gift with a difference.

When faced with the challenge of buying for the person who appears to have everything, a group of Liam’s resourceful followers decided to set up a fundraising campaign to mark the singer’s upcoming 23rd birthday.

Using a Just Giving page, the fans who “would like to give back” are using the popstar’s birthday to raise money for the Way Youth Zone in Wolverhampton – a community centre in Liam’s hometown.

The page reads: “Liam Payne has done so much for fans so we the fans would like to give back.”

“In honour of his 23rd birthday, we are collecting donations for  the Way Youth Zone in Wolverhampton, a purpose-built facility for the city's young people aged 8-19 (and up to 25 for those with disabilities).”

Cheryl’s boyfriend eventually heard about the fans’ plan through his mother and took to Instagram to express his gratitude.

 

Alongside a picture of an article about the fundraiser, Liam wrote: “My mum just showed me this who’s ever idea that was thank you so much what an amazing birthday present” (sic).  Awh!

Fair play to the fans for coming up with such a positive way of marking the singer’s special day.

Pop sensation Selena Gomez might be smashing her current Revival world tour but unfortunately that doesn’t mean the star is feeling totally herself.

Last night the singer got real with fans at her Indonesian concert and later used Instagram to share her emotions with the world in a heartfelt post.

According to Billboard, Selena appeared to get a little teary on-stage as she explained to her audience why the song Kill Em With Kindness is so important to her.  She said: “I get really frustrated. I get stupid sometimes.”

“I say things that I don’t mean, or that come out wrong just because I care so badly. But the thing is, at the end of the day, no war in anger was ever won.”

“I do know that deep down in my heart that I have to believe that we can love each other and always be kind no matter what it takes in us.”

While it’s not totally clear what sparked the star’s emotional presence, she later took to Instagram to say she “felt extremely unauthentic, unconnected to both myself and my music”.

 

 

Selena – who has just turned 24 – wrote: “I've never really felt like my materials, wardrobe or a video could define me. I act on a moment and fear something that hasn't happened.”

“I'm stagnant, I stay still and don't just sit with myself first and ask 'is this where I am, whole heartedly?'”

“I've always told the truth. I'm always true to my word, I've shown who I am but I need to rethink some areas of my life creatively and personally. had to get that out."

 

 

The post was captioned: “not being negative about anything I've done. I'm grateful for every single moment I get here – Indonesia you were LOUD and clearly inspiring. Love you so much.”

The Good For You singer has received an abundance of support from fans since the post first appeared with one writing: “I know you'll probably never read this but i, and all selenators, love you so much and will always be here for you no matter what. Please stay strong and don't loose that smile who stays us alive (sic).”

And another said: “Thank u for sharing. I think we all have those inauthentic moments. Your authenticity will rise above again. Sometimes we just slip into an inauthentic space (sic).”

When it comes to global fandom, Directioners and Beliebers are generally considered the most die-hard and devoted in the world, but it looks like they've some competition on their hands.

According to new research, British fans of Teenage Dream singer, Katy Perry, actually shell over the most dough when it comes to showing their devotion for the star.

Conducted by Barclaycard, The Battle of the Fan research established that KatyCats are the most flush with their money and are more than happy to majorly splash out on Katy merchandise and concert tickets.

Flashing the cash big-style, KatyCats spend, on average, £1,627 or €1,860 to get their fix of Ms. Perry and her on-stage extravaganzas.

"We compared fans of some of the world's biggest bands and artists – those that started when we did in the 60s and those who have more recently risen to fame," explained Katherine Whitton from Barclaycard.

"What the findings have shown above all else is that the nation's love affair with music, and especially live music, is very much alive and well … whether you're a KatyCat, Directioner, Swifty or Little Monster," she added.

And while that's all well and good, the research concluded that KatyCats – We've tried hating that term BTW, but secretly we totally love it – have beaten Yeezy fans, Queen Bey's subjects and Ri-Ri's army of followers to the top of the poll.

Vicky Pattison was pictured during the week in Magaluf having a laugh with friends and wearing a pretty purple and pink bikini, but the only thing her fans were concentrating on was the fact she gained a *few* pounds (and we say few because her bod still looks bangin').

Since departing Geordie Shore, the reality star has been concentrating on various other projects including her weight-loss DVDs, so when her followers saw she wasn't following a diet religiously, they were furious.

Honestly, I think they need to chill. As women, we all know that our weight can go up and down and sometimes there's nothing we can do about it. Also, if Vicky wants to take some time off from a strict fitness plan (because we all know it can be hard work sometimes), let her.

However, Vic has thick skin and posted the perfect comeback on Instagram.

Sharing a picture of a quote, "Take life with a grain of salt… a slice of lime, and a shot of tequila," she captioned the snap: If you're hoping I'll crumble or cry over a couple 'not so flattering images' that were taken without my knowledge and when I was drunk you obviously don't know me very well!!!

"I'm just a normal girl enjoying myself on holiday with my mates! I'm not perfect.

"Why don't we all just embrace normality, chill out and have a g&t eh?!!" she added.

It was the video seen by millions – not just in Ireland, but around the world too. 

Yes, in a Euro championships marred by thuggery, Ireland supporters have been winning over their own fans – and making a few local ladies blush at the same time.

Meet Carla Romera: a stunning young Bordeaux woman who works as a lifeguard and loves the beach and bikinis.

She was the centre – quite literally – of attention when Ireland were beaten 0-3 by Belgium in her home city at the weekend, being playfully ambushed by dozens of boys in green. 

 

Le top ces irlandais Ils aiment bien les françaises je crois #delire#euro2016#irish#france#bordeaux#france

A video posted by ~ CARLA ROMÉRA ~ (@carla_rm_) on

Posting her own video of her amazing experience to her Instagram account, Carla showed her appreciation for the 'top' Irish, whom she reckoned 'liked the French'.

In it she can be seen surrounded by 'les verts' – who treated her to a rendition of Can't Take My Eyes Off You, and latterly, Hey Baby.

In conversation with Mail Online, she also revealed: "I want to say that I am very proud of the Irish, it was a magical time filled with kindness and joy."

In her own video, one lucky Irishman can also be seen smiling in Ms Romera's direction – his charm eventually seeing him steal a cheeky kiss by the end of the crowd's rendition. 

Now all that's left to find is that young gentleman – who has amassed his own following of female supporters following the video's release. 

Although several requests as to his identity have been made online, as of yet he remains nameless.
