It was a very sophisticated affair this time last year - from Presidential parties to art galleries, this is what was rocking our world in January 2014!

One Direction give us an education!

We love musician cameos on TV, especially when it involves puppets! Niall, Harry, Liam, Louis and Zayn took a trip to Sesame Street to teach us the importance of the letter 'U'. Apparently it has more than a "few-e-ew" uses!

 

Lady Gaga gets all emosh at The Louvre

The Mona Lisa wasn't the only famous woman in the iconic Parisian art gallery last year, the Mother Monster herself became an exhibition! Lady Gaga was immortalised in paint by her friend Bob Wilson, and was hung for the world to see.

 

...AND treats us to a sneak peek of her latest fashion styling

Her latest 'Gagavision' lent support to Versace ahead of Paris Fashion Week. 

 

Beyonce performs at the ULTIMATE birthday party

There aren't that many women in the world more powerful than Beyonce - so we imagine that even she was in awe of Michelle Obama when the 'Single Ladies' singer performed at her 50th birthday. We didn't get to see Queen Bey hanging with the First Lady, but we DID manage to get our hands on a snap of her with the Obamas' pooch, Bo!

 

The Vamps show us how PRETTY they are

Okay, maybe not. Maybe the OPPOSITE! Cheeky boys Brad, Connor, James and Tristan stopped by Capital to show off some of their most hilarious faces!

 

Speaking of impressions... Is that ACTUALLY Li'l Wayne?

No of course not! It's *actually* Drake! The Canadian rapper dressed up for a Saturday Night Live skit called 'Hip Hop Classics: Before They Were Stars'. A* for effort Drizzy!

 

Disclosure get ANOTHER famous voice on side!

Disclosure burst on to the music scene in 2013 and managed to bag vocals from AlunaGeorge, London Grammar and Sam Smith for their debut album 'Settle'. The brothers proved to be such a success, that powerhouse vocalist Mary J. Blige agreed to provide vocals for an EPIC remix of their track 'F For You'! You went MENTAL for this on dancefloors across the UK last January, and it sounds just as epic a year later!
