Liam Payne has broken his mobile phone and lost all of his contacts while on tour.
The One Direction hunk, who is currently in Brazil with band mates Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Zayn Malik and Louis Tomlinson for their 'Where We Are Tour', was embarrassed to ask his friends for their numbers again after destroying his phone.
Liam took to Twitter today (10.05.14) to tells friends about the accident, posting: "Most awkward tweet ever ... I broke my phone lost all my contacts please text me if u have my number (sic)."
Fans re-tweeted the post more than 86,000 times and cheeky followers pretended they had sent the star a text message to try and get his number.
One smitten fan wrote: "I contacted you but you didn't answer."
The 20-year-old singer, who recently split from girlfriend Sophia Smith, has been partying hard in Rio but is still focused on the band's music and shows, teasing details about One Direction's new album.
He posted: "So here it is, for all you people who have been turning us off for the last four years, this next album is about to blow your minds! (sic)", he added: "#stepbackandlisten."
Although some fans thought the release was too soon after their last record 'Midnight Memories', many tweeted their excitement for the album and were desperate to know if his post meant they had finished recording.
One follower wrote: "oh man i'm scared and excited I can't wait (sic)."

Kendall Jenner is set to appear in the US edition of Vogue.
The model and reality TV, whose sister Kim Kardashian appeared on the cover of the magazine with fiancé Kanye West for the April issue, will have her own photoshoot featured in the fashion bible.
According to E! News, the 18-year-old beauty has been photographed by acclaimed snapper Patrick Demarchelier for the forthcoming feature, while he has also taken photos of Sean Penn's daughter Dylan for the edition.
Kendall is keen to build on her experience in the modelling industry and carve out a career, having made her mark on the fashion world at New York Fashion Week in February, where she walked the runway for top designer Marc Jacobs.
Her successful stint subsequently saw her hired by Giles Deacon at London Fashion Week and by Chanel during Paris Fashion Week, cementing her reputation as a high-end model.
Kendall's stunning looks have also caught the attention of Topshop founder Sir Philip Green, who is said to be lining up the 'Keeping Up With The Kardashians' star to be the face of his high street brand.
Kim, 33, previously gushed about her sister talent, saying: "She works her butt off! She just goes to casting after casting.
"I'm so proud of her that she - for her first Fashion Week - was able to achieve all the shows she was able to walk in. She's living her dream and it's so inspiring to watch her."

Ozzy Osbourne says rock won't ever die.
The Black Sabbath singer doesn't keep up with the new generation of musicians so although he doesn't know who'll carry their torch when they're gone, he insists there will always be fans of the genre who want to watch band's play live.
He said: "I was doing an interview the other day and someone asked me what the latest band I liked was, and I shouted 'I don't know any f**king new bands!' They said to me, 'So you guys are done?'
"To be honest, I don't know who's going to be the next big thing. I do know that rock won't die, though - and you'll never kill live music."
The 65-year-old star's band - which includes Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler - has sold over 70 million records worldwide since forming in 1968 and he doesn't think many bands can enjoy such long careers.
He explained: "When we first played in London, one of the first places we played was - what's its f***ing name, on Wardour Street ... The Marquee Club! People thought we were f***ing nuts, and we probably were back then.
"Now here I am 45 years later and still doing everywhere and getting ready to headline Hyde Park [at the Barclaycard British Summer Time festival in London this summer].
"I was saying to [wife] Sharon back the other day that there aren't many bands this far into their career that can still sell out shows ... let alone play Hyde Park. We've had an incredible time so far and we're not done yet! I still love it."
Ozzy is honoured to have the chance to headline at the festival and still has to pinch himself to remind him it's all real.
He added to Kerrang! magazine: "I'm really honoured and to be honest with you, it's all too much for me to take in. The last album we did was in 1979 - that's 35 years back down the road. I keep pinching myself about the opportunities that we have now."

Ben Hardy says "Ian Beale is hiding something".
The 'EastEnders' star has been told his on-screen father - played by Adam Woodyatt - isn't being completely honest following the murder of his daughter Lucy.
Ben - who plays her brother Peter - told the Daily Mirror newspaper's We Love TV magazine: "None of the actors know who killed Lucy, although we discuss our own theories on who it might be.
"In the scripts there are some censored scenes that I haven't been allowed to read.
"I do know that Ian Beale is hiding something, but Adam Woodyatt won't tell me, no matter how much I hassle him. The killer could be anyone at this point."
The 23-year-old actor also admitted the current storyline was part of a "revival" for the show and could give a real boost to its popularity.
He added: "I do feel like it's a revival. Public opinion about the show seems to be getting back on track.
"I'm really happy to be so involved in this storyline, as for my first six months Peter was just selling fruit and veg."

Zac Efron would "absolutely" star in another 'High School Musical' movie.
The 26-year-old hunk shot to fame as Troy Bolton in the movie musical franchise, but he insists he is still proud of the role that brought him to worldwide attention.
He told Glamour magazine: "I wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for 'High School Musical'. I love every fan. And to this day, I sign more 'High School Musical' stuff than anything else. Would I do another? Absolutely.
"Getting 'High School Musical' was a dream come true. I wasn't always good at singing and dancing. I was horrible at it until I started training every day. But I loved doing it. I love any challenge."
If Efron does return to the series as Troy - who he played in three movies - then he would want his 'Bad Neighbours' co-star Seth Rogen to be the film's producer as he recently admitted he would love to work with the comic star all the time.
He said recently: "I wish Seth could produce every film I'm in, he kind of just takes the lead he is always setting the pace and the tone for everybody. He helped the director, Nicholas Stoller, that's what Seth is able to do, ground everything. He is a great idea guy, and he's great to improvise with."

Simon Cowell's 'Britain's Got Talent' dressing room is "off limits".
Stephen Mulhern has revealed after eight years working alongside the media mogul, he has "never" been allowed to set foot inside, although the other judges are more sociable.
He told The Sun newspaper's TV Magazine: "In eight years doing the show, I have never been in Simon's dressing room. It's off limits.
"During the auditions, we all stay in the same hotel and have a drink at the bar at the end of a long day, but Simon has never come along.
"I live five minutes away from [hosts] Ant and Dec though, so I see them quite a lot socially. And I have never seen anyone take as long to get ready for anything as Amanda Holden and Alesha Dixon do for this show. Oh. My. God!"
The 'Britain's Got More Talent' presenter also gets on with David Walliams, although their friendship meant they almost took a joke "too far" when they were teasing Simon.
He revealed: "I actually enjoy winding him up, but he can be quite scary ... I had a very awkward moment with him just before his son Eric was born ... I thought it would be good to give him one of those virtual babies that cries.
"David thought it was hilarious and said: 'Simon, let me show you how to burp a baby, come here Stephen'. I had to sit on David's knee while he rubbed my back and fed me from a water bottle.
"It was then I realised the joke had gone too far. I said: 'I think we should probably leave,' and Simon just went: 'Yes, I think you should.' "

Simon Cowell would love a daughter, according to Lauren Silverman.
The couple - who welcomed their first son Eric into the world in February - are keen to have another child and the media mogul's girlfriend revealed he would like to have a baby girl.
Speaking at the launch of the London Cabaret Club, she told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "We'll definitely have more children ... I would like one more, I think it will be a girl. Simon wants a girl very badly."
The US socialite feared she couldn't have children after the birth of her son Adam, eight, with ex-husband Andrew Silverman, and she described Eric as a "blessing".
She added: "I was never able to have a child for a long time, it's the biggest blessing.
"With Simon I'm the happiest I've ever been. He's an amazing dad, he does all the nappies, very hands-on. I love him."
Meanwhile, Lauren - who is splitting her time between New York and London - revealed her two sons met lately and her eldest "is so in love" with the new arrival.
She said: "My older son is so in love with the baby, it's been fantastic."

Miley Cyrus and Kate Moss enjoyed a raunchy night out in London.
The 'Wrecking Ball' hitmaker is currently on tour in the UK, and she partied all night with the supermodel at Madame JoJo's in Soho, which was "decorated especially" for their guests.
An insider told The Sun newspaper: "The club was decorated especially for Miley with naughtily shaped sofas, glitter bombs, dress-up box with wigs, tassels and X-rated toys.
"She and Kate were inseparable. Things kicked off when Miley's dancers got up on stage just in knickers and boob tassels."
The night got even racier when the two stars joined the dancers, with the controversial singer even "spanking" Kate.
The source added: "At one point, Mossy had her head in a dancer's boobs while Miley spanked her from the back."
The twerking star seems to be on the mend after falling ill recently, and had even insisted she was going to stay sober on the tour.
She previously claimed: "I'm probably the only one on this tour who doesn't drink or smoke before a show, as I take this really seriously.
"It's almost like being an athlete being up here, because if someone was f**ked up, they definitely couldn't do my show."

Lindsay Lohan loves "dressing up" with her friends.
The troubled actress is keeping herself busy now she is sober, and friend Chloe Green revealed she has turned to shopping with friends as a hobby instead of drinking.
Speaking to the Daily Mirror newspaper, the Topshop heiress said: "Lindsay is doing really well.
"I met her briefly in New York and have seen her a few times in London and we've been getting on brilliant.
"Lindsay has cleaned up her act a lot. I'm not a big drinker, so when she is with me we do more of the shopping. We go trough her whole wardrobe. She likes putting people together and dressing up."
While Lindsay is trying to clean herself up, her past reputation is making it difficult to find people to finance her movie 'Inconceivable' because of her "diva behaviour".
An insider recently claimed: "There is currently no date for filming to begin on Lindsay's 'Inconceivable' ... producers are having trouble getting money for the project.
"There is always the problem of insuring Lindsay for movies. Her diva behaviour, not showing up on time, or at times, Lindsay doesn't even arrive at all. It's very likely this movie will never get made.
"The only reason 'Inconceivable' was pitched at Sundance was an attempt to garner interest and create buzz about the project. It didn't. Lindsay is currently in Europe attempting raise money for the project, but isn't having any luck."

Simon Cowell had to judge his namesake on 'Britain's Got Talent'.
The media mogul came face-to-face with a singer who shares his famous moniker, although the Geordie hopeful failed to impress the judges with his audition.
The star told him: "You've no idea how much I wanted this to be great so I could say at the end of the show: 'The winner of 'Britain's Got Talent' is Simon Cowell'.
"I mean, I live for that moment. I never thought I'd say this but, SImon Cowell, it's a No."
The unlucky contestant admitted sharing his name with the talent show boss has made life tough at times, particularly when people think he's impersonating the new father.
He said: "I was pulled over by the police because I had a broken light.
"It was a Saturday with 'The X Factor' was on. I didn't have any ID on me so giving the name Simon Cowell to the police, well, you might as well say anything.
"I was at the side of the road for two hours because they were trying to contact my family to verify who I was. I thought I was going to be arrested."

Molly Smitten-Downes is worried she could lose the Eurovision Song Contest to a bearded lady.
The singer is representing the UK in the annual competition, but she is concerned about coming up against Austrian drag act Conchita Wurst - real name Tom Neuwirth - because of the "novelty".
She told The Sun newspaper: "Conchita is a brilliant singer and getting a love of love from everywhere. She definitely competition for me.
"I was so surprised when I heard there was a bearded lady in the contest, I was like, 'Whaaat?' But she is so attractive. She dersses incredibly.
"You see her from behind and then she turns around and she has a beard. It is a bit of a shock ... I would like to think Eurovision is just about the song, but there is the whole novelty thing here."
Meanwhile Molly - whose song 'Children of the Universe' will be performed last - is hoping she can do her best and let the voting take care of the rest.
She added: "It is great to go last, but anxiety is going to go through the roof by the time I go on ... The public will go with whatever entertains them the most.
"I hope the best song wins. The vibe for me over here has been really positive. Everyone is excited about my performance and there is a lot of expectation.
"My biggest concern is making sure I deliver it. There is nothing I can do about anything else."

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have planned their wedding "all on their own".
The reality TV star's mother Kris Jenner admitted she has taken a step back from her daughter's life to let her get on with it - and she hasn't even seen the wedding dress.
Speaking to E! News, she said: "Kim and Kanye have done this all on their own and they've had the best time planning it and I know nothing ... I have not seen her wedding dress, I don't know how she looks in it.
"I'll see it for the first time when she puts it on at her wedding."
It is a change of pace for Kris, who is a self-confessed "control freak" and admitted she has had to learn to "sit back and relax" while her daughter takes care of the wedding plans.
She admitted: "I'm really excited. I've never been able to just go some place and relax and enjoy the ride and let everybody else worry about everything because I'm such a control freak.
"So this has been a little bit of a lesson. It's a bit hard for me to let go and it's an exercise of patience and I'm sorta a control freak so to sit back and relax...this isn't easy for me either!
"I'm going into this with a great deal of excitement. I was a little bit curious at first and now I'm just like OK, just let it go, breathe and enjoy."
