By Shaun Kitchener

In a tweet that has since been deleted, he said: “@justinbieber what do you feed that thing. #proud daddy”. And the world shuddered.

Midler, whose tweets on current affairs are never anything less than 10/10, has now posted:

The record is out on November 13 and will do battle with One Direction’s new LP Made In The A.M., which is released on the same day – reportedly in a bid to avoid clashing with Adele, who is thought to be bringing out her own new music the week after.

Maybe by then we’ll have forgotten this whole photo thing. But probably not.
