LOUIS TOMLINSON GLASGOW BIRTHDAY SURPRISE

Louis Tomlinson was said to be ‘feeling broody’ as he met his youngest fan and signed a birthday card for her first birthday during a visit to Glasgow. 

Louis who has just released his album How Did I Get Here met several hundred fans at the city’s HMV for a signing. 
And the One Direction star admitted he was loving Glasgow and his beloved fans as hundreds queued in the freezing cold to meet him. 
Louis who wore a brown Ice Cream Services jacket and jeans smiled from ear to ear as he met some of his original boyband followers as well as new fans. 
Amongst them was his youngest fan Melody Shaw who dances to his songs in her buggy. 
Her mum Kayleigh,31, who took her to the signing alongside dad Kyle said: “She loves Louis Tomlinson and actually dances to his songs. I put the albums on and she just has a boogie. Right now, her favourites are probably Jump The Gun or Sunflowers.”

Louis signed her birthday card, because it’s her first birthday in two days, so... he said ‘I love your name because it’s music related and your jumper’ because I got a personalised jumper done for her, which says Louis Tomlinson on the front and back. Even when we were leaving, he was like, I didn't even notice the jumper. 
He may have been feeling broody. He’s got Freddie but maybe he wants another baby.”
Other fans included Rachel Haggerty, 21, from Glasgow and her friends Sophia Salmoni, 14, from Barrhead and Nikki Murray, 31, from Glasgow. 
Rachel said: “I asked Louis to sign the record for my mum who couldn’t make it and the CD for me. I love his music and was shaking so badly I couldn’t put it back in the sleeve.”
Sophie added: “I got him to sign CDs but ae weren’t allowed selfies though my mum took a video of me meeting him while she was standing in the back of the queue. He asked me about my favourite songs but I told him I don’t have one.”

And Nicky said: “I’m an OG Directioner so Ive met Louis a few times before. I told him about my favourite songs including Jump the Gun which he said will be really good live. I’ve got Louis’ song tattooed Faith In The Future on my arm too so showed him that.”

CHRIS HUGHES MENTAL HEALTH TRIP TO GLASGOW

Chris Hughes met up with Scotland’s First Minister John Swinney and Traitors winner Meryl Williams on a visit to Scotland for a Burns supper.

Celebrity Masterchef’s Chris, who appeared at the event in his pink jacket and black shirt and trousers without his US girlfriend JoJo Siwa, shared photos on Instagram from the SAMH charity event at the Collectors Hall in Glasgow. 

Meryl also proudly showed off her new facial surgery and breast augmentation and uplift from earlier this month in a revealing silky dress from Zara, altered by her granny, also mingled with guests on the night. 

Chris, who tucked into Scotland’s traditional dish of haggis neeps and tatties, appeared at the event to support Craig Ferguson, a mental health advocate from Paisley who is set to walk more than 3000 miles across America to raise funds and awareness for Scottish Action for Mental Health. 


He said of the night: “So honoured to have joined Craig and the charity this evening at the @thecollectorshall, before he sets sail across America! This is honestly insane, in so many ways!

“'The Tartan Trek' will be Craig walking a MARATHON A DAY, for over 100 days, all on his own, with just his best friend in a support van which essentially will be his place to sleep on many occasions! He deserves everyone behind him supporting this. I can wait to keep track on this.”

He added: “Go and make your country proud Craig, and the rest of the world who will be supporting you in this incredible trek! A wholesome night!”

John Swinney told revellers on the night: 

“When I heard Craig was going to take on this challenge, I thought it was a fabulous idea, and to do it in aid of SAMH demonstrates a tremendous level of personal commitment and dedication.

“As a society, we must continue to create space for people to express how they feel. There is a great deal of pressure today, not least through social media, which makes this openness even more important. Sport has a unique way of bringing people together, and this challenge truly reflects that power.

“My advice to Craig would be to keep his eye firmly on the prize of Boston, where I’m sure he will receive a phenomenal welcome when he arrives.”

Craig is coordinating his Tartan Trek from LA on February 23, to arrive in Boston 104 days later to coordinate with the arrival of the Scotland team in the US For the World Cup.

He previously walked 1000 miles in 2024 from Glasgow to Munich ahead of the UEFA European Championship, which raised more than £70,000 for the men’s mental health charity Brothers in Arms.
