And Finally
One Direction attempt to run away from The Wanted
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 16 April 2012
According to TMZ, One Direction nearly fled a US TV studio earlier this month because they were scared that The Wanted were about to arrive and beat them up. I know, it sounds unlikely, but that’s what TMZ says.
One Direction, so the story goes, were rehearsing for their appearance on ‘Saturday Night Live’ at CentreStaging in Burbank, California when their security were alerted to the fact that The Wanted were due to arrive in the same studio complex to rehearse for their performance on ‘American Idol’.
This was at the point when the total non-feud between the two groups was raging in the British tabloids and it had seemingly put the wind up 1D. Well, all except Liam. TMZ notes that he was the only member of the group who wasn’t scared in the slightest. Whether this is because he has an acute understanding of how the tabloid press works or because he’s hard as nails isn’t clear. I suspect it’s neither.
Anyway, the One Direction boys, afraid for their lives, decided to end their session early and run away, but The Wanted arrived while this was all still going on. One Direction’s security team, in an attempt to keep things under control, went and spoke to The Wanted’s security guys and told them about 1D’s concerns. The Wanted’s security team then passed this information on to The Wanted themselves, who apparently found it very funny.
Max from The Wanted found it so funny that he immediately went over to One Direction’s studio in order to laugh right into their faces. Not Liam’s face though, apparently he hugged Liam. Because you don’t mess with Liam. For some reason.
