ONE DIRECTION star NIALL HORAN has dismissed a report suggesting he was involved in a car accident on Sunday night (20Jan13).

Editors at a U.K. tabloid claimed on Wednesday (23Jan13) that Horan was leaving London's Heathrow Airport in a Range Rover after a promotional trip to Japan when the vehicle skidded on ice and tilted on two wheels before hitting a crash barrier.

Pictures obtained by The Sun newspaper showed the car after the smash, but Horan has taken his to Twitter.com to shoot down the report.

In a post, he writes, "I was not in a crash and that is not my car."
