Well, alright - 'fan' might be stretching it, but guitar legend Eric Clapton has spoken out in favour of one of the biggest pop stars on the planet, Justin Bieber.
In an interview with Billboard to promote his new album, Clapton spoke about his initial dismay that his three daughters - who range from 11 to 14 - are Beliebers. "I was, I suppose, a little bit disappointed that they were talking about him, until I heard the music," he said. "It's got some substance now."
Surely it's only a matter of time until there's a collaboration on the cards between the 71-year-old and his 22-year-old fellow musician? He has, after all, taken to wearing Nirvana and Metallica t-shirts of late... it's only a matter of time until he goes through his Slowhand phase.
