I was a drunk rocker
1D STAR’S ADMISSION
LOUIS Tomlinson admits his drinking got out of hand in One Direction.
The Doncaster lad was keen to be seen as a “rock star” so he drank “more and more”.
He confessed: “The first time I had a drink before a show in One Direction I remember thinking to myself, ‘This is what it feels like to be a rock star but I am in a pop band.’
“So every show that goes on you’re drinking a little more. Bear in mind I have to be respectful to the fanbase and the parents, all these things I have to do when you’re a ‘young role model,’ or whatever they called us.
“But I am drinking more and more.”
Vodka
Louis, top of the charts with second solo LP Faith In The Future, recalled one night where he took it too far.
He continued: “I am drinking vodka Red Bulls, that’s my drink of choice, but where this show was so different is that I am drinking on stage and I never used to do that before.
“And I was drinking before the show, my cup was constantly getting topped up, and I don’t really remember the show, I don’t remember the night.
“I just remember getting into the car and my body knew, I just threw up all over myself.
“Bear in mind two minutes before I was playing a stadium to 50,000 people and that would not have been a good look. I got put to bed and missed that night out.”
