Niall Horan, Cody Simpson, Justin Bieber AND a crystal meth pipe?
When three megastars from the world of pop-music get together for a little down-time – they're always going to attract plenty of attention.
However, a newly-posted video of Niall Horan, 21, Cody Simpson, 18 and Justin Bieber, 21, is garnering comment for all the wrong reasons: namely because it shows what seems to be hard drug paraphernalia mere metres away from the singers.
In a video clip taken yesterday and later posted to Mr Simpson's Snapchat account, the young men can be see singing Home To Mama. Also visible is a yellow glass pipe seen resting on a nearby coffee table.
Similar pipes are commonly used to smoke crystal meth, although, there is no suggest that the singers themselves were using drugs of any sort.
The stars' night had begun with Niall and Justin heading out in LA – even obliging star-struck fans with selfies – before later syncing up with Cody.
Indeed, Mr Bieber and the Mullingar-man have been close for quite some time; first hanging out together after the VMAs in 2012.
The Canadian even met Niall before he found global fame: when Justin appeared on the X Factor back in 2010 to perform a mash of Baby and Somebody To Love, he remained backstage to meet the contestants – including Mr Horan.

Niall is, of course, currently on One Direction’s On The Road Again tour, but he’s still making time to go on lunch dates – namely hitting Fig & Olive on Melrose Avenue with none other than Justin’s ex, Selena Gomez, 22.
Interestingly, just a day previously, Mr Bieber himself had taken his former love out on a date.
Still, it's good to see there’s no blood between the boys now.

And besides, it appears that Niall might be distracted by another lovely lady: he was spotted with his arms around a blonde woman outside posh Japanese restaurant Nobu in Malibu last week.
He’s also been consistently liked to the diva-like Ariana Grande for months, despite both parties claiming that they’re “just friends”.
Meanwhile, early in 2014, Justin Bieber's Calabasas mansion was raided by police. TMZ subsequently reported that the property, which was a year ago sold to Khloe Kardashian for €6.65m, was littered with drugs, and drug paraphernalia.
However, while Justin himself was never charged in connection with the incident, his friend, Lil Za, was caught red-handed with ecstasy and the pain-killer oxycodone.
