ed, British boy band One Direction are planning to don animal disguises to avoid being mobbed by their doting fans. Party in the Park festival organisers are concerned that the popular boy band may get hysterical fans “overwhelming” them and are “considering every viable option” to avoid such a situation.
The group, who are headlining the festival in Leeds, are considering wearing animal costumes and arriving in everyday vehicles to avoid fan hysteria. According to a source “no stone is being left unturned”.
The Daily Star has the source commenting: “We are considering every viable option to avoid the lads getting absolutely overwhelmed by their fanatical fans. They want each member of One Direction to arrive separately in animal-themed disguises.”
Harry Styles, Liam Payne, Zayn Malik, Niall Horan and Louis Tomlinson will also leave behind their luxury transport and travel in normal cars to the festival on July 22.
The source said: “They also want them in a normal car to prevent them getting mobbed. Instead of arriving in the all-singing, all-dancing tour bus or limousine, they will be bundled into an every-day vehicle while wearing costumes to fool people.”
One Direction rose to fame through British reality show The X Factor. They placed third in the seventh edition of the series and were later signed on by Columbia Records. They currently occupy third spot for best-selling album in the US so far in 2012, according to Neilsen SoundScan that ranks top-selling musicians for the first six months of each year. Their debut studio album Up All Night has secured its 16th consecutive week on the Billboard 200’s Top Ten list.
