It's a match made in publicist heaven: One Direction cutie Niall Horan appears to have it bad for former Disney star Demi Lovato. If this means she's done with serial cradle robber Wilmer Valderrama once and for all, we're all for it. Also in music news, Justin Bieber bought a new house, Selena Gomez had to be taught how to smoke a cigarette while filming her new movie, Erykah Badu is furious at Wayne Coyle of the Flaming Lips, and more.

The long-running rumor that One Direction blondie Niall Horan has an ongoing flirtation with X Factor judge Demi Lovato was confirmed this week when the group participated in a celebrity match-up game on Canadian entertainment program etalk.

Asked to name which One Direction member would be best matched with a random smattering of female celebrities, all of the young Brits insisted that Niall should be paired with Demi Lovato. Hirsute jokester Harry Styles even wrote "Niall dreams dirty things!"

Lovato, 19, is apparently chummy with Horan and One Direction's Liam Payne, as she recently tweeted at them, "hey boys... did you know..... i can speaka to the munkey...... ?!" Obviously Ms. Lovato shares an inside joke or two with these guys, so clearly she and Horan should just go ahead and get married. If Miley's doing it, why can't Demi?

Given his taste in cars, we're curious to see how Justin Bieber goes about decorating the $6.5 million mansion he reportedly purchased in Calabasas, California.

According to the Los Angeles Times, the 10,000 square foot home, set on 1.3 acres in a gated community, includes a library, a wine cellar, a guest house, seven bedrooms and eight bathrooms. ! There's also a movie theater with stadium seating, so Bieber won't ever have rent out the Staples Center to impress a date ever again. The estate was once the home of Nicole Murphy, Eddie Murphy's ex-wife.

Justin's girlfriend Selena Gomez is a bonafide good girl. She told Interview magazine that she had to be trained how to smoke: "I mean, I'd never smoked a cigarette before in my entire life. It was really funnythey had to show me how to do it."

Erykah Badu is furious with the Flaming Lips' Wayne Coyle over the extremely NSFW video for their collaborative song "The First Time I Ever Saw Your Face."

The singer-songwriter lashed out at Coyle via Twitter on Wednesday, stating that she felt "violated" by the piece, which was apparently disseminated before she'd even had a chance to view a rough cut.

In a lengthy missive, Badu noted, "When asked what the concept meant after u explained it , u replied, "it doesn't mean anything, I just want to make a great video that everyone is going to watch." I understood , because as an artist we all desire that. But we don't all do it at another artist's expense."

Badu called the finished product a "tasteless, meaningless, shock motivated video," and concluded, "As a huan I am disgusted with your what appears to be desperation and poor execution. And disregard for others. As a director I am unimpressed. As a sociologist I understand your type. As a woman I feel violated and underestimated."

Coyne grossly responded, "Dang!!!!! @f! atbellyb ella you really know how to do it!!!! You hatin on me has gotten the video 100,000 more views !!!LOVE LOVE LOVE."
