Zoella fails to notice picture of 'random man and his dog' is Pink Floyd's David Gilmour
'THIS IS DAVID GILMOUR. THE BEST GUITARIST LIVING IN THE WORLD'

YouTube star Zoella has been at the centre of a Twitter and Instagram row after failing to recognise a picture she took of a "random man and his dog" was actually Pink Floyd's David Gilmour.
Zoella, real name Zoe Suggs, took a picture of Mr Gilmour and his dog on a beach and uploaded it to her Instagram account in 2014.
Unaware of the guitarist's fame, she captioned the photo: “I took this photo of a random man & his dog & other photos on the beach at sunset today! Click the link in my bio to give it a read. :).”
