The name of Niall Horan’s debut solo album might make you do a double-take

It's not just us that are seeing this...

We’re not the only ones…

Niall Horan – him that was in One Direction – is now very much a solo artist. After releasing a couple of singles, he’s now announced that his first album will be released on October 20.

As part of the announcement, fans have also been given a glimpse of the album’s artwork, which also features its name…

You see it too, right?

That album title is… yes, okay, technically it says ‘Flicker’, but with the typography in all caps, it does basically say ‘FUCKER’, right?

Now, did Niall see this and think “Yes, that’ll do nicely. A funny play on words, big fan”?

Or did, literally, this design pass through tens – if not hundreds – of people and not one person say “Eh… chaps? That says Fucker. I know it says Flicker, but it says Fucker. Should we give the design another go around?”

As we say, we’re not the only ones…

We should probably just be happy he didn’t title the album ‘Clint’, and leave it at that…
