Prepare to be blessed as Niall Horan has made his first appearance as a solo artist on The Ellen Show. Taking the promo tour for his debut solo single ‘This Town’ into the US, Niall and Ellen met to rekindle their famous friendship. (We all know they look similar, okay?).
Daytime TV queen Ellen Degeneres is well-known for the games she plays with celebrity guests, and Niall was treated no differently. Ellen had Niall play a game of “Who’d You Rather?” where he basically had to choose between two different female celebs. The last woman standing was the wonderful Ellie Goulding.
Niall and Ellen also discussed their mutual love of tennis and the ongoing saga of how alike they look, comparing themselves in similar outfits. It’s quite weird tbh. See how it all went down here:

Can we talk about how confident Niall is on his own? It must have been nerve-wracking for him to branch out as a solo artist and do interviews without the other boys. Here with Ellen he is so chilled. We couldn’t be more proud.
Niall took to the stage to sing his new single ‘This Town’ in a stripped-back performance with just his guitar. This new avenue has given Niall the opportunity to really show us his amazing vocals, guitar skills and songwriting talents. Check out his performance here:

We’re so excited about what the future holds for Niall. We know he’ll be hugely successful as a solo artist (and again in the future as 1/4 of One Direction) In fact, Niall is already making waves in the music industry; ‘This Town’ debuted at a record-breaking No.1 in the Billboard Social 50 Chart. He’s come so far already.
Niall’s Ellen performance is the first of many TV appearances in the US as his promo tour continues. Stick around for coverage of more shows, including The Late Late Show which Niall is set to appear on soon.
