One Direction’s Liam Payne has denied he is homophobic. The singer was introducing a song at one of the band’s concerts and reportedly said…
But it seems that the relatively innocuous comment was taken up the wrong way and Payne was accused of being homophobic.
Last night, he addressed the furore in a Twitter rant.
He added, “So annoying trying your hardest to make people happy in a show and you think about all the notes u tried to hit higher or a little sweeter.”
In fact, he seemed genuinely flummoxed by the whole thing.
He ended by saying that making people smile is his “job role”.
“Job role”. (3AM)
Taylor Swift spoke about cancer at her Arizona gig on Monday night. The singer performed the song Ronan, a song inspired by a blog post written by a mother who lost her 4-year-old son to cancer, and spoke about the disease.
The singer welled up as she acknowledged reading the blog and made reference to how cancer has personally affected her family. (Swift’s mother was diagnosed with cancer earlier this year.)
Thompson later took to Instagram to thank Swift for the gesture.

It also notably features Ora wearing a Union Jack like it’s a sexy bedsheet.
