one direction's interview

FULL INTERVIEW:
Louis:

What kind of boyfriend are you?
I’m a bit of a joker. I can be a romantic, but not too sickly- I like to keep it on a level. You have to get the banter in there, too, otherwise you scare the girl away.

Are you a loyal boyfriend or do you have a roving eye?
I’m a very loyal boyfriend.

What would you wear to go on a date?
I hate wearing the same as everyone else, so I’d probably wear my purple chinos- they sound disgusting but they look cool - and a polo or t-shirt and a cardigan. I love clothes, so I’d make sure I look nice.

What would you like your date to wear?
I’d like her to be dressed up, but to have her own style.

If the rest of the band didn’t like your date, would that put you off, even if you really liked her?
No, what I do in my personal time is about me. If other people don’t agree, then it doesnt matter ‘cos it’s my opinion and that’s what counts at the end of the day.

Where would you go on a date?
I’m a bit old-fashioned and I like the idea of going to the cinema and then an Italian restaurant.

Would you pay for everything or share the bill?
Oh no, I’d pay for everything.

Would your date get a kiss at the end of the night?
Yeah, definitely, to show that I’m still interested.

Would you take her number? And would you call or text?
Of course, although it would depend on how the date goes. If it wasn’t a great date, I might let her down slowly. I hate guys who just ignore girls.

What makes a good girlfriend?
Someone who is loyal and has a sense of humour, and is kind-hearted too. Oh and if they’re tidy, that would be good because I’m not.

Is there a certain type of girl that you go for?
I don’t think so, no, but I like someone who likes a laugh.

Is it scary or exciting being surrounded by screaming girls?
It’s incredible - it’s great to have people show their support for you when you’re doing something that you love, and the fact that they are girls makes it that much better!

it wouldn’t put me off, but it’s a big factor ‘cos we’d be with the boys constantly.

Would you pay for everything or share the bill?
I’m a bit old fashioned when it comes to things like that and I’d definitely pay for everything. I like to open doors for girls and that sort of thing, I like to feel as though I’m the protector.

definitely! Especially if she’s hot!

I’d say in One Direction there are a lot of different dynamics- some of the boys are jack the lad, whereas I’m a big more of an old romantic.

Are you a loyal boyfriend or do you have a roving eye?
I’m very loyal.

What would you wear to go on a date?
probably jeans and t-shirt

If the rest of the band didn’t like your date, would that put you off, even if you really liked her?
no, it wouldn’t bother me if I really liked her. I’d listen to what they had to say and make my own mind up. but also there would be no one else after my girlfriend, so that’s good!

Where would you go on a date?
probably go to the cinema, because it’s not as forward as going out for a meal- you can’t go wrong and you can talk about the movie afterwards. I’d treat her to some popcorn and a drink too.

definitely. I’d try to be cool but I’m not very good at it. I try not to send the first message, but if I really liked her I’d send a message after the date.

What makes a good girlfriend?
someone who’s cheeky but quiet, too. A bit shy as well – I don’t like really loud girls. I like happy, smiley girls.

Is there a certain type of girl that you go for?
erm, I like mousy brown haired girls. I’d have any to be honest!

Is it scary or exciting being surrounded by screaming girls?
mostly exciting, but you have moment when it’s crazy- some girls are far too forward. A girl came over to me once, and gave me a hug, then tried to kiss me. I dodged it and then she tried the same thing with Harry. Some girls will squeeze your bum as well, which is a bit forward!
