There's no doubt about it Liam Payne is a pretty talented boy but we didn't expect him to be appearing in any West End musicals any time soon.

Yes that's right, the One Direction star is reportedly wanted by musical maestro himself Andrew Lloyd Webster to play the role of Joseph in popular musical Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.

A source told a national newspaper, "Andrew has told those involved that his dream signing is Liam. He thinks he can bring so much to the role of Joseph, he's a natural performer," adding "there was talk of other pop stars being approached but he wants to keep the bar high and they don't come much bigger than One Direction."

Now these are only reports at the moment and neither Andrew nor Liam have confirmed anything but just imagine!

We could end up getting Liam's solo material and seeing him in a musical! 🙌

Meanwhile, Liam is gearing up for the arrival of his first child with his girlfriend Cheryl.

After finally confirming she was pregnant during a photoshoot with The Princes Trust and L'Oreal Paris last month, reports suggest Cheryl is about to give birth any time now.

Exciting times! 👶
