Breaking news: Niall Horan looks great no matter what color his hair is.
In a throwback clip from a 2013 television appearance alongside his One Direction bandmate Louis Tomlinson, Horan showed off his most daring hairstyle yet — a lilac purple ‘do that, unsurprisingly, worked very well on him.
In the clip, “Lilac Niall” — as he was lovingly called by the show’s host — made his triumphant entrance alongside Tomlinson by crashing through a paper wall on the set, sending both men tumbling to the floor. Horan, sporting a purple shower cap that completely covered his hair, took center stage for the big reveal. “Me and Lou T’s been up to something," he quipped.
Sure enough, Horan had purple-tinted hair underneath!

It looked fantastic, proving that Horan has a head of hair that is invulnerable to looking anything less than amazing. Still, Horan seemed to be on the fence about the color itself.
“I hope it washes out, because I’m not going on the American Music Awards looking like this,” Horan declared.
“Oh, we’ve got a diva,” Tomlinson replied, cracking up Horan in the process.

Niall Horan admits to being “starstruck, big time” on The Voice
During the second night of the Season 28 Battles on The Voice, the Coaches got to meet a woman who Michael Bublé called "one of the greatest voices in the country” — and viewers were just as shocked as Horan was.
As an audience member stood up and smiled, Bublé revealed who the mystery woman was.
"I know her as Nancy Cartwright, but others may know her as the voice of Bart Simpson!" he announced as the audience burst into applause.
Sure enough, Cartwright has been the voice actor responsible for the iconic Simpsons character for more than 35 years. Both Snoop Dogg and Horan were blown away by the reveal, leading Horan to confess something so sweet.
"That is amazing. I'm starstruck, big time," he said.
