Yeah? Good to know, I’ll keep that in mind for any future needed ego boosts. Woooowwww ok but fair, still honored to be your favorite nonetheless. Why thank you, I can’t wait to bring it home. This season should be really good, I’m excited. Awww thank you both for the love and support, means a lot. Am I? I’m just being honest Gi 🤭

Favorite by default is still the favorite. I'll get you a little trophy made and everything. Maybe I'll be able to get into the audience for one of the shows then I can really see what you're like as a judge, ha. Well, I appreciate your honesty, Ni.

That’s true, and I’ll take it 😂 Ooooo a trophy huh? I can’t wait, I’ll display it proudly. If that’s something you’d like I can definitely have that arranged for you. I have to say I like to think I’m a pretty amazing judge, so be prepared for greatness. Of course, honesty is the best policy and everything right?

It's been just over a month since our 3 and a half year tour came to an end, and the post-tour blues have really set in now. I might need to pick up some new hobbies, or simply get out of the house and not sit around writing sad songs all day. Any suggestions are welcome. Hi, I'm Chris, and I'm in a little band called Coldplay. @hfrpstarters

Hello lad!!! Might I say your tour was absolutely amazing and I loved it. Although 3 and a half years? Hell how did you do that? That’s crazy and impressive. Post tour blues are the worst but I’d recommend doing little things that make you happy, whatever that is. For me that’s taking time to myself to either exercise or cook or enjoy some shows, or hanging out with mates or loved ones. Also I don’t think you need the introduction but hi I’m Niall and I’m a big fan.

I just finished reading The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides and now I am too stunned to pick another book to read. Do you ever feel that way when you finish a book? I think they call it a "book hangover." That's how I am feeling at the moment. The book took me by surprise and it earned a whole 5 stars from me! Do you have any recommendations on what I should read next? Or maybe TV shows, movies, video games? I need something to keep me occupied while I have all of this free time. If it helps, I love romances, thrillers, mysteries, horror, just about anything, really!

Oh my that book is my of my all time favorites, definitely left me in a “book hangover” as well so I get that completely. It’s one of the best feelings ever and I’ve only found those with a few books. Was definitely a five star worthy book, I agree. Seems like you have great taste, I like you already. Oooo I have so so many recommendations for you!!! Book wise I’d say rock, paper, scissors by Alice Feeney. Tv wise I’d say this amazing show but you might’ve heard of it already and as far as video games I’d say final fantasy if you haven’t played that. Ahh I’m the same way, if I’m not occupied when I have free times I’m a mess. Ahhh I’ll keep that in mind for the future!

Oh I remember those days, can still get like that sometimes. How has tour been going? I need to make it out to a show, gotta see my favorite brothers kill it on stage. I can’t believe Halloween is almost here, time really has flown by. I still haven’t decided if I wanna dress up or no but I’ll need to be making the decision here fast. Ooooooo now I can definitely see that, I gotta admit it’s one hell of a movie. Aww how adorable, she’s gonna be the cutest demon hunter ever.

Always happy to help with the little ego boost. We'll ignore the fact that I don't really know many Irish people to start off with. Can't wait to see you take home the crown again, then. I'll be cheering you on from the comfort of my sofa with Khai. Now who's the one boosting up egos, huh?

Yeah? Good to know, I’ll keep that in mind for any future needed ego boosts. Woooowwww ok but fair, still honored to be your favorite nonetheless. Why thank you, I can’t wait to bring it home. This season should be really good, I’m excited. Awww thank you both for the love and support, means a lot. Am I? I’m just being honest Gi 🤭

texting 📲 niall ♡

Is it bad if I say that you're my favorite Irish man? Just out here to give you a little ego boost. Are we going to be winning The Voice again this year? As much as I love some of the other coaches, well... team Niall, obviously. @ncillhorcn

Ammm I now? 🤭 that’s definitely not a bad thing at all and you definitely gave me ego boost Gi so thank you very very much for that lass. Oh you’re damn right we’re gonna win again, we got this in the bag. Awwww stoppp you’re too sweet, you’re gonna make my ego explode but please keep going. Is it fair to say you’re my favorite American ? And favorite model ?? I could keep going but 😇

thank you niall and you know what? that’s probably the most romantic recommendation ive heard yet. i really love the idea of making it personable. it really means something when you take them into consideration. i love that idea and i know whoever you decide to fall in love with is going to love that idea too or whatever new you come up with.

Of course lass! Aww really? Thank you, I try to think I’m pretty romantic. Exactly, it really takes it to the next level and shows thought and commitment to the person. I think showing you care and pay attention to their likes and dislikes and such means a lot more than just a random gift. Aww thank you so much Lauren, that might just be the sweetest thing anyone has said to me. I’m gonna remember that, you’re invited to the wedding.

Niall: yeah? Ok good, I just wanted to make sure. Didn’t want it to be weird or anything.

Well ice cream is just the best food ever and anyone who disagrees with that just need to visit the dentist more often, okay that's a pretty nice flex, if that doesn't make you the favorite child i don't know what will, but then again i am the favorite child.

I fully agree, ice cream is the best food ever and there’s so much variety it’s hard to not love it. I will say that’s the only flex I have but I use it proudly. Oh it better, coming from you means I’m on the right track so thank you gorgeous.

Is it? You'll have to share with me your solution because I'm so lost on what to do most of the time, actually. See, might need to consider these as well, got this show I'm rewatching or I'll just rest and regret not doing more. I have all the thoughts when I don't have the time and all the time and no thoughts. Did you? Now I must ask — did you get to pet some dogs though?

Oh big time, the whole life question leads down a rabbit whole, for myself at least, that I don’t get out of for a good couple days. I could definitely give you some of my solutions but they’re kinda random I must say. Yeah no you’ll definitely regret doing nothing so my advice is always try to at least do something no matter how small or random it is. No trust me I completely get it, like when I’m working I have the most deep and riveting thoughts but when I have all the time in the world to sit with those thoughts nothing. I did indeed get to pet all the dogs and it was amazing, highly recommend.
