Kelly Rowland proved she really can’t pronounce Niall Horan’s name.
The Destiny’s Child stargot the opportunity to welcome Niall to the stage at the AMA’s over the weekend and, well, she struggled.
The 24 year old Irish singer songwriter won big at the AMA’s in LA when he scooped the prize for Best New Artist.
BUT – when Kelly welcomed him to the stage to perform his hit track Slow Hands, she struggled to get his name right.

Niall took it all in his stride though taking to Twiiter to tell Kelly that he’s heard all of the different variations of his name and there was no hard feelings.
The singer took to Twitter shortly after the show ended to re-introduce Niall, this time getting his name right and mentioing how much she loved the Mullingar man’s song.
