James Arthur has revealed that he has talked about collaborating with Louis Tomlinson, despite previously falling out with him on Twitter.

The singer told The Sun that he has sent the One Direction man a number of new songs for his consideration. A number of years ago Arthur called the singer a "little b*tch" when ranting about boybands online.

Arthur said: "We talked quite a lot about collaborating. I just sent him a lot of tunes as I knew he was on the lookout. He has all my back catalogue. We had a phone conversation to clear the air. He got to see that I was a different person and that helped us bond.

"Over the last couple of years we’ve had a few conversations. I did say to him: ‘Look, I shouldn’t have been so vocal about things back then’. I apologised. Don’t get me wrong, at first he was still a little bit p****d off and I was a bit p****d off with him – but we’ve worked it out over time, with a few false starts, and now we get on well."
