Lewis Capaldi is one of the most popular names in the world of music right now. Not only does he have a beautiful voice and excellent songs, but he's also absolutely hilarious as a person too.
The 22-year-old, who shot to fame with his songs 'Grace', 'Hold Me While You Wait' and 'Someone You Loved', has became just as well-known for his kooky personality as his music, and so his latest move won't shock fans of the star one bit.
According to Mirror Online, Lewis has personally donated items to the Nordoff Robbins charity, the UK’s largest independent music therapy charity. Apparently, Lewis super-fans will be able to partake in an auction to win Oreo biscuits - that Lewis has licked and dunked in milk himself.
Teaming up with Oreo, the Scottish singer chose the charity himself - and in the promotional video, Lewis explains, "Hello, my name's Lewis Capaldi, and I'm here today with these - my face on a packet of Oreos. I'm gonna get my tongue in and about every last one of them, and I'm gonna lick them like there's no tomorrow for you!"
