Katy Perry admits she has a soft spot for One Direction’s Niall

Katy Perry has revealed that she has a soft spot for One Direction’s Niall Horan, describing him as ‘an absolute sweetheart.’

The 27-year-old, who sat on The X-Factor judging panel during the Irish heartthrob’s first audition, told The Irish Sun that she enjoys being in the company of all the boyband, but that it’s Niall who remains her favourite member:

“Niall is just such a sweetheart. I’m a big fan of One Direction.

“They’ve been so sweet to me every time I meet them, they’re like the biggest thing in the world right now.

“I’m thrilled for the success they’re enjoying and love hanging out with them — Niall is just lovely.”

The ‘California Gurls’ singer, whose new movie 'Katy Perry: Part Of Me 3D' was recently watched by the band, also claimed she wants to spend more time in Niall’s homeland:

“I must have played Dublin five times by now and I get such a welcome there every time. I have always had the most amazing time in Ireland, I need to spend more time there, that’s my plan.”
