Could a Bray wedding be on the cards?!

Singer Taylor Swift has always been a huge fan of Wicklow-born musician Hozier, but now it seems their relationship could be blossoming into something more. 

The pair were spotted looking unusually cosy together at Sam Smith's Grammys after party on Sunday evening, with onlookers saying there was definitely something special going on. "They were hanging out a lot and talking with each other," one guest told E! News. "They looked really cute together."

Taylor reportedly even gave Hozier a few flirty kisses on the cheek during the night, and the two were seen chatting with one another as late as 3.30am.

This isn't the first time that rumours of a romance between the pair have kicked off – just last week Taylor was seen attempting to hide her face from the cameras as she and Hozier left an LA concert venue together after watching a Haim gig.

The pair were openly friendly as far back as October, when Taylor posted a video of herself doing some majorly fangirl-ish dancing at one of Hozier's gigs:

Shortly after, Hozier told Billboard magazine that he thought Taylor was "a very impressive human being," adding that "hanging out with Taylor as she was baking cookies for her fans was as surreal and wonderful as you'd imagine."

So is love in the air? Watch this space!

Irish musician Hozier wowed audiences last night with an epic Grammys performance, which we've been playing on repeat all morning.

The singer performed his international hit Take Me To Church before being joined on stage by music legend Annie Lennox for the second half. 

Annie then finished things up with a gorgeous rendition of I Put A Spell On You. Wow!

Even the Grammys organisers were blown away by Hozier and Annie's joint performance:

We're feeling proud to be Irish today!

There is a very exciting line-up for tonight’s Graham Norton show as Filth star, James McAvoy, Mark Ruffalo and acting legend Meryl Streep sit on the couch.

But that’s not all…Hozier is going to be there! The Wicklow singer will perform on the chat show and then presumably sit down for a chat before the red chair (our favourite bit).

Graham tweeted the line-up an hour ago, asking followers to vote for him at the National TV Awards in exchange for some an awesome guest list: “Not begging more a bargain. Vote and see Meryl Streep, James McAvoy, Mark Ruffalo & Hozier on my show tonight. Deal?”

It's most definitely a deal, Graham! 

Tune into BBC tonight at 10.35pm.

Just when you think things can't get any better for the man from Bray. Hozier has well and truly cracked America as his debut album opens at number 2 in the US Billboard 200 album charts.

Spurred on by his incredible appearance on Saturday Night Live last weekend, Hozier's self-titled album sold 58,000 copies in its first week.

Appearing on hit US programmes from The Late Show with David Letterman to The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Hozier has been slowly taking over the American music scene.

He is currently touring the United States and Canada, before returning to our shores next month.

Are we proud or what?

Hozier is fast-becoming the most talked-about talent on the music scene, and last night he achieved yet another amazing milestone by performing on US show Saturday Night Live.

Amazing stuff. Huge congratulations, Hozier!

The Bray native was already celebrating this week, having found out that not only had his album topped the charts, but his Irish tour has also sold out. Wow.

So he must have been feeling confident as he stepped onto the stage last night, and boy, did it show in his performance.

The man has such an incredible talent.

Well done, Hozier. We are delighted for you!

Check out his performance in the video, below.

Not only has Irish musician Hozier made platinum in Ireland with his debut album, he's making a huge name for himself overseas too. The Take Me To Church singer has had appearances on the Ellen show, David Letterman and even has an upcoming performance on Saturday Night Live.

Forget about all of that though – we've found the real seal of approval. Turns out that the one and only Taylor Swift is Hozier's new number one fan… and if this video is anything to go by, she is making no secret of the fact that she loves the Wicklow man's tunes.

Taylor posted this clip to her Instagram account last night, with the caption, "When attending a Hozier concert, it's very important to accompany the band on your invisible instruments."


The singer bopped along to Sedated with her BFF Abigail Anderson, and the two had a pretty impressive air-drumming session.

We wonder if Hozier will return the favour with some twerking to Shake It Off… somehow we doubt it!
