One Direction's Niall Horan has reportedly fallen head over heels for X Factor star Tamera Foster.
According to The Sunday Mirror, the pair met backstage when the band pre-recorded their song, Story of My Life, to be broadcast on Sunday's show.
And doing little to deny claims that Niall is smitten, Tamera said on Sunday: 'Niall and I have been talking in private.
'He’s the most famous person in my phone after Nicole Scherzinger. I hope he fancies me – he’s cool.'

Love at first sight: Apparently Niall and Tamera met backstage when the band pre-recorded their song, Story of My Life, to be broadcast on Sunday's show and he fell for her 'instantly'
And Irish heartthrob Niall, 20, is said to have fallen for Tamera 'instantly' - becoming further enchanted by the singer after she arranged for 1D to meet a sick young friend.
Since then he has reportedly been sending her messages asking her out on a date, and is said to be looking forward to seeing Tamera once again when One Direction perform at the X Factor final in three weeks' time.
The band – which yesterday celebrated 1D Day – are currently in Los Angeles, but pals say there was 'instant chemistry' between Niall and Tamera when they met.

They got talking when Tamera asked X Factor bosses to arrange for 1D to meet eight-year-old cancer sufferer Stacey Mowle.
Tamera, who is helping to raise £500,000 for the life-saving treatment that Stacey needs, told the newspaper: 'I spent most of my time with Niall. He’s really fun and very immature.
'I get really hyper before I sing, so I was practically bouncing off the walls. I was singing, ‘yeah, I’m ready, I’m ready,’ and Niall started singing, ‘I’m ready, I’m ready’ along with me. He asked for my number and we’ve been talking.'
Niall split from singer Ellie Goulding in September after less than a month together.
Tamera, who parted from 20-year-old boyfriend Joshante Amihyia last month, said: 'Niall tweeted me when we first met but now we just direct message.'
The Kent-born star, who last night sang James Arthur’s Impossible, also told how X Factor bosses tried to tone down her sexy image, but she refused.
Meanwhile it has been rumoured that show supremo Simon Cowell plans to offer her a “multi-million-pound” record contract regardless of whether or not she wins this series.
