One Direction members Louis Tomlinson and Niall Horan have taken to Twitter to respond to singer Jake Bugg’s mocking during a recent interview.
Bugg’s responded with negativity when asked about One Direction during his interview with Shortlist Magazine earlier this week:
“Oh, I’m pretty sure they have a good laugh, but it’s easy to, isn’t it? When you don’t have to write any songs. People [call them the new Beatles] because they broke America, but that don’t mean a thing. I mean, [One Direction] must know that they’re terrible. They must know… Calling them the new rock stars is a ridiculous statement. And people should stop making it.”
[Niall] Horan opened the reaction by tweeting to his 9m+ followers ‘[It] really buggs me that artists we’re fans of flip on us in the press!’
