Niall Horan makes surprise stage return 10 months after Liam Payne's death

Independenta day ago
Niall Horan has made a surprise return to the stage 10 months after the death of former One Direction bandmate Liam Payne.
The 31-year-old singer-songwriter delighted fans when he was revealed to be the special guest at Shawn Mendes ' show at the O2 arena in London on Saturday (16 August).
The 'Stitches' singer caused a ruckus when he introduced Horan, who walked out with guitar in hand as fans screamed and cheered.
After hugging, the pair performed Horan's 2016 hit 'This Town'. After the song, Horan told the crowd that he 'loved them'.
It was the Irish singer's first stage appearance since the death of Payne in October 2024, who died in Argentina after falling from a balcony.

Yes, chinos are cooler than you think — here's how to wear them

Here's a sentence I never thought I would write. Chinos are cool. So cool that we can't even call them cool. Because the word cool isn't actually cool any more. I know. All of the above is confusing. Especially for someone like me, who has made avoiding chinos — not just the wearing of them myself, but any romantic involvement with a man wearing them — a plank of my very existence. That's right, while Richard Dawkins has busied himself over the decades taking down religion, my focus has been on disavowing a certain type of trouser. It's probably beige or khaki, probably cotton twill, probably worn with a rugby shirt (crime number two), and absolutely not probably — 100 per cent definitely, in fact — an offence against style.

Noel Gallagher: I'm proud of my brother - he's been amazing

Noel Gallagher has said he is "proud" of his brother Liam after the pair reunited for this summer's Oasis Live '25 tour. The highly anticipated reunion was announced in August last year, after the brothers seemingly put the feud which led to their split in 2009 behind them. At the time, Noel said he "simply could not go on working with Liam", but having just completed the UK-leg of their comeback tour, he has nothing but praise for his younger sibling. "Liam's smashing it. I'm proud of him," Noel told talkSport in his first interview since the tour began. "I couldn't do the stadium thing like he does it, it's not in my nature. But I've got to say, I kind of look and I think 'good for you, mate'. He's been amazing. "It's great just to be back with Bonehead [Paul Arthurs] and Liam and just be doing it again." 1:11 When asked if he has felt emotional during the tour, Noel added: "I guess when it's all said and done we will sit and reflect on it, but it's great being back in the band with Liam, I forgot how funny he was." He went on to say he was "completely blown away" after the band's opening night in Cardiff, and "grossly underestimated" what he was getting himself into when first signing up for the shows. He said: "It was kind of after about five minutes, I was like, 'all right, can I just go back to the dressing room and start this again?' "I've done stadiums before and all that, but I don't mind telling you, my legs had turned to jelly after about halfway through the second song." "Every night is the crowd's first night, you know what I mean?" he continued. "So every night's got that kind of same energy to it, but it's been truly amazing. I'm not usually short for words, but I can't really articulate it." Having played to packed crowds in Cardiff, London, Manchester, Dublin and Edinburgh, Oasis have scheduled dates around the world including in major cities across the US, Canada, Mexico, Australia, and Japan. It's rumoured the band will continue their run of shows next year, when it marks 30 years since they played two sell-out nights at Knebworth Park to an estimated 250,000 people. When quizzed on the rumours on talkSport, Noel quickly changed the subject, saying: "Right, let's talk about football."
