Here at KISS FM HQ, we absolutely ADORE Anne-Marie - so when she dropped by to visit KISS Breakfast with Tom & Daisy, we couldn't wait to grill her on everything that's been going on in her life.
The 28-year-old Londoner - who shot to fame with songs like 'Alarm' and 'Ciao Adios' - has recently dropped her brand new single 'Lonely' with Lauv, and we cannot stop listening to it here on KISS FM.
But there was one nugget of information that came out of our chat with her was the incredible news that she's actually going to be taking golf lessons from none other than One Direction star Niall Horan!
After Tom sparked a bit of banter about golf, Anne-Marie admitted, "I like golf now! I used to hate it because I thought it was so boring and I thought, do you know what, I’m just going to try it.
"It was quite hard in these nails, but because I did karate they were like super impressed with my aggression. I was smashing it and they were like, 'We’ve never seen this from a woman before.' Don’t stand behind me with a golf club in your hand!"
After Tom admitted that he was not so skilled with a club, Anne-Marie - who recently toured with none other than Ed Sheeran - confirmed that Niall Horan had agreed to teach her how to golf properly.

Tom incredulously asked, "Niall from One Direction is going to be your teacher?" to which Anne-Marie confirmed, "Yeah, he is. He actually is."
Doing an excellent impression of the Irish singer, Anne-Marie said, "He was like, 'It’s all right. I'll give you a shot'. He tweeted me back and I was like, yes please, and then kind of didn’t speak and then he messaged me again saying, come on then let’s do it. So we're actually going to do it."
The group then discussed how Niall is actually incredibly good at golf, and even has his own golf company - Modest! Golf. After Daisy said that he'd be the best teacher and "so positive," Anne-Marie said she'd never actually seen him play!
Well, that will be changing soon...
