Zayn

[GazLaz]

... has left One Direction. That means a massive pay rise for our boy.

[Copps is Magic]

Sorry, who is 'our' boy?

[The Red Baron]

Zayn and Louis were supposed to be big pals and were both keen to develop their songwriting careers. This could be the beginning of the end for 1D.

[GazLaz]

LT, he's one of our own.

[Yargo]

So 1D have a vacancy for an attractive,young looking lad eh?

[Copps is Magic]

Are you upset at the possibility of the band splitting up Gaz?

[The Red Baron]

I was looking at their tour dates. Talk about a punishing schedule. They are in the far east at the moment, then starting in June they tour Europe and then North America.

I'm sure they are all aware that they have a shelf life and are maximizing their income while they are still popular.

[wilts rover]

I doubt they are on as much as some people seem to think they are. They aren't Led Zepplin or even Take That. They were formed by Simon Cowell so I doubt they even own the name and will be on a wage from the management company that 'own them' rather than a percentage.

[Glyn_Wigley]

'Stress' is musicbizspeak for 'needs a spell in rehab'.

[grayx]

Hmmm.
Shortly after dashing back to see his girlfriend, after being photographed with another bird whilst on tour, he decides to quit group.
Thumb on head perhaps?

[GazLaz]

I think Take That would be wishing they made as much money as 1D in their first few years. 1D sell more albums and sell out more concerts I'm sure of it.

[Bentley Bullet]

Yes, but one of the members is from Donny so they're bound to be shite.

[wilts rover]

Gaz they may very well do so, but that doesnt mean the band members will see much of that money, it means that the people who own the records and promote the concerts will. The music business is full of court cases from artists who didnt see the money from their success they thought they should.

[LincsRover]

Strikes me as being a 'stupid boy' as captain Mainwaring might say. Wants to be a normal kid again? I'll give it 3 years before he's spotted working on his 3rd star at Macci dees whilst practising his karaoke in a bar somewhere. Idiot! Some people don't know when they've struck lucky!

 

[coventryrover]

Guess you knpw what he is/has been experiencing?

Plus with the money in his bank account I dont think he has to worry.  Good luck to him

[Nudga]

This has got all the makings of a little scrote not being able to handle his drugs.

Rehab for three months in America I would imagine

[Donnybax]

They will make a killing on his big comeback tour
