Awkward.
Louis Tomlinson is halfway through his first year on the X Factor judging panel and he seems to be a big hit with viewers.
Yes, with legions of 1D fans tuning in to hear the singer’s feedback, they took a blow last night when Louis was giving his critique to one of this year’s contestants.
After Irish singer Brendan took to the stage, he admitted that his time in a band didn’t turn out the way he hoped – something which Louis could apparently understand.
“I get it, I was in a band you know,” Louis said before delivering the heartbreaking news.
“You just want to move on from it.”
Yep, that’s the sound of the hearts of thousands of 1D fans breaking around the world as Louis seemed to signal that the band were a thing of the past.
And the moment was not missed by those on Twitter.
Louis Tomlinson: “I get it, I was in a band. You know, you just want to move on from it.”

Look, we get it, he’s trying to move on from One Direction but does this mean a reunion is totally off the cards?
Come on lads, make like Westlife and give the people what they want.
