Musical bedfellows, these two are not.

While we can understand Eddie Vedder nominating Tim Robbins and Bruce Springsteen, choosing Niall Horan from One Direction to have a bucket of ice cold water thrown over his head was quite a surprise to us.

Of course, Vedder’s kids had more than a helping hand in the selection process.

The ice bucket challenge is all in aid of Motor Neurone Disease and has been completed by everyone from Robert Downey Jr, Bill Gates and Darren Fletcher to Oprah Winfrey and Justin Bieber.
