Maynard: Horan's a party-lover

Conor Maynard is excited about performing at the Mobo Awards

Conor Maynard has revealed One Direction's Niall Horan is a "really cool guy".

The Turn Around singer is pals with the Irish boyband star, and is keen to go out partying with him.

He said: "Niall from One Direction is really cool. He's a really cool guy. He's the one I've had the chance to speak to the most.

"I bumped into him at V Festival so I spoke to him there. He does like to party. I remember he was remixing my song Girls, Girls, Girls (Can't Say No), changing it to Beer, Beer, Beer."

Conor, who embarks on a full UK tour this month, revealed he loves when his friends get to join him on the road.

"The DJ on my tour is actually a really good friend from Brighton, so I get to bring one of my friends on the whole tour, that's really cool," he said.

"There are a whole bunch of dates on the tour that my friends are going to be coming to, so that's pretty cool. If I could bring them to all of them I would."

Conor is nominated for best newcomer at this year's Mobo Awards at the Liverpool Echo Arena on November 3. Emeli Sande, Wiley and Trey Songz have also been confirmed to perform at the ceremony.

"There's such a big hype around the Mobos, every year, and this year I actually get to perform at it so I think it's going to be insane," Conor said.

This isn't a good time to make travel plans. Weather conditions and work responsibilities have a way of wreaking havoc with your schedule. Wait another few days before putting down a hefty deposit. Working behind the scenes will yield significant rewards. If someone asks you to serve as their assistant, go ahead and accept. The pay will be excellent and there will be a lot of fringe benefits, too. Don't talk about a neighbour's private life in mixed company.More
