Lewis Capaldi might be one of the most sought after names in music at the moment, having recently topped the charts with songs such as ‘Hold Me While You Wait’, however that doesn’t stop him being star-struck.

The ‘Someone You Loved’ singer met up with the iconic singer Elton John, recently and he couldn’t resist sharing a photo with his fans. The singer took to Instagram telling his fans, ‘My life is f------ mental. Thank you for the free food @eltonjohn.’

And it wasn’t long before fans of both singers were posting comments. TV presenter Caroline Flack posted ,’👏🏻❤️👏🏻❤️👏🏻❤️’ with Lewis replying to her, ‘quite the afternoon’.

Some fans commented on how similar the singers looked, with one joking they were ‘Dad and son’, and another saying, ‘Lewis you look a bit like his love child xx’, to which he replied, ‘haha he’s a handsome man’.

The Scottish singer, who is known for his fun jokes on social media, recently revealed in an interview with us that he would be up for appearing in a couple of reality TV shows. Surprisingly, he admitted he would be up for a Celebrity Love Island, because they needed a bit of diversity, and Big Brother, because he used to watch it when he was younger.

The 22-year-old singer also compared his contrasting sad music and fun personality to a ‘malformed easy-peeler’, saying, “One side is singing sad songs, the other is a guy who makes jokes about going to the toilet.”

Lewis released his debut album, ‘Divinely Uninspired to a Hellish Extent’ which includes his hit singles, which you can hear on Forth 1.

Now take a look at the OMG moments from this year's Love Island:

TOMMY STOLE LUCIE FROM JOE

After surfer girl Lucie coupled up with Joe on the first episode of the series, things seemed to get off to a good start... before Tommy entered hours later.


Tommy chose to couple up with Lucie, stealing her from poor Joe. He said in the Beach Hut, "At the moment the girl I want to pursue is going to be Lucie. She's a surfer, she goes to the gym. Her body is banging. She has beautiful eyes, a beautiful face, beautiful everything."
