One Direction Talks Fame and Friendship in Billboard Interview

They’re ecstatic about the upcoming release of Midnight Memories, and the members of One Direction opened up with Billboard about the crazy life they lead.

Harry Styles noted that he’s still having a blast as an international pop star- “I don’t think it’s that hard to stay focused. We get to go to amazing places and work with great people, it’s just really fun!”

Meanwhile, Niall Horan credits his band mates for keeping him sane. “Luckily, I have my four best mates on the road with me to keep me from getting lonely. Of course we all miss home at times. Who wouldn’t, being on the road all year long? Wouldn’t give it up for anything though.”

And Liam Payne assured fans that they’re not going anywhere. “We just love what we’re doing right now. We’ve got no intention to change that.”

Still, Louis Tomlinson is a bit overwhelmed with how fast everything has happened. “Who knew we would be here three years ago? We’re just going to focus on tomorrow and go from there.”

As for label honcho Simon Cowell, he says the possibilities for One Direction are endless. “Eventually they probably will split and up and maybe want to have their own careers. The choice is theirs, and we’ve got the opportunity to do both. But from what I hear, they’re really enjoying what they’re doing and we don’t feel there’s anything seriously wrong here. They’re getting more time off and I hope they stay a band for a long time.”
