Ellie Goulding has joined Gok Wan and Alex Brooker in reading CBeebies bedtime stories, all for Comic Relief.
The songstress, fashion consultant and journalist are all set to record a reading for the kids' TV channel - and it will kickstart over the course of next week.
Kicking off the bedtime stories is The Last Leg star Alex, with his airing on Monday, March 14.
Alex is going to read Barbara Throws a Wobbler by Nadia Shireen, the funny story of a kitten called Barbara who is in a very bad mood.
The following day, Ellie will read What If, Pig by Linzie Hunter.

Recent episodes of CBeebies bedtime stories include the likes of Hollywood stars Tom Hardy, Dolly Parton and Reese Witherspoon.
Reese's was most recent, with the mum-of-three's episode airing at the end of January.
She read Extraordinary! by Penny Harrison.
The book, released in 2020, tells hows you can discover wonderful things wherever you go. It's said to celebrate moments shared with family and friends - which may be "simple" and "ordinary," but they'll be cherished forever.
Opening the story, Reese said: "The things we see every day can seem a bit… ordinary. But if you stop, and look closer, you'll see that our world is extraordinary."
Last month, the Duchess of Cambridge appeared on CBeebies bedtime stories, to share a book she enjoyed as a little girl.
Kate described the children's classic - The Owl Who Was Afraid Of The Dark - by Jill Tomlinson as an "encouraging tale".
Illustrated by Belfast artist Paul Howard, the book tells the story of baby barn owl Plop, who is helped by others to grow in confidence and overcome his fears.
