*At a meeting*
Harry: *clicks pen*
Louis: *clicks pen in response*
Simon: Stop that.
Harry: Stop what?
Simon: You’re talking about me in Morse code!
Harry: Yes, that’s what we doing. In our very limited time, we took a class on a very outdated, very unnecessary form of communication just so we could talk about you in front of you. Congrats, you figured us out!
*later*
Louis, to Liam: That’s actually exactly what we were doing.

Liam's interview with impaulsive - I watched the whole thing so you don't have to. He said some stuff about the experience of being in 1D, about being lost himself, and about Zayn. He said some nice stuff about Louis also.
I continue to be concerned about Liam's alcoholism - he talks about being drunk and wasted. He's even day drinking whiskey on the interview. He says he's lost and doesn't know who he is, is just imitating others. That's insightful but sad.
He didn't trash Zayn like Twitter is chirping he did. He did make a low blow reference to the Jake Paul fight where Gigi had tweeted "get yourself a respectful man" and Liam said, that didn't age well, presumably referencing the breakup drama.
But it's not a complete bagging on Zayn. Here's the full quote:
Liam: There's many reasons why I dislike Zayn and there's many reasons while I'll always, always be on his side. If I had had to go through what he went through - through his growth and whatever else - are your parents very supportive?
INT: Very, very.
Liam: My parents are overly supportive to the point where it's annoying sometimes...and Zayn - Zayn had a different upbringing in that sense, and you can always look at the man for where he is and say oh yeah, whatever, that guy's a dick, right? But at the end of the day once you understand what he's been through to get to that point, and whether or not he actually even wanted to be there.....
I don't agree with any of his actions, I can't commend some of the things he's done. I can't be on his side for that. What I can say is I understand and I hope that - your only hope is that sometime in your life the person on the other end of the phone wants to receive the help that you're willing to give."
That's a fair thing to say. Sounds like someone establishing healthy boundaries, who does actually care, who gets why it's not simple, and who hopes the other person will be better.
Also Liam on industry abuse - having agoraphobia now from having been locked into hotel rooms by 1D management:

Seeing all the shit that the 1D lads went through during the band makes me so ashamed to be a fan. How didn't we see it? Why didn't we, as loyal fans, see that by the end they were tired and struggling. 5 albums in 5 years aswell as touring too. That's enough to make anyone depressed. It makes me ashamed that I was an older fan (late teens) and I didn't spot anything sooner.
I was angry when they split, it's not a fucking hiatus no matter what bullshit they say, I was so frustrated. How could they leave us? I already had mental health issues and the boys were the one thing keeping me grounded and they just left.
I remember the day Zayn left. I was in college, animal biology class to be exact, when at 5pm (ish) I saw on my phone that Zayn was leaving. I was so angry. How could he? I cried all the way home then I cried for the rest of the night. They were a constant in my shit show of a life but now I felt like they were slipping away. Did they really love us? Or did they just care about our money?
I understand why he did it. I would of left years ago if I was in that position.
I know they'll never see this, but I'm sorry. I'm so fucking sorry that we never saw anything wrong and we continued to pump money into the shit show that Simon had created.
I don't like listening to One Direction as much as I did. I still do listen from time to time but I feel sick every time I'm sad and I hear a song from them because it makes me remember how overworked they were. How it wasn't their lyrics, how they probably recorded that line of a song then went and played a show when they were so tired. It makes me so angry that they were made to work so fucking hard as such a young age.
I'm so proud of all of them for growing into their own people, making the music that they wanted to make from the start. How they've achieved so fucking much on their own when they probably didn't think it was possible.

Small XFactor Exposé From Today
earlier today Mark Boardman, who used to work on the XFactor, tweeted tons of information exposing things that happened behind the scenes when he was working there.
he talks about Simon Cowell, Modest Management, mistreatment of contestants (especially One Direction), and about the contracts that contestants had to sign.
(These screenshots are chronological as he tweeted them:)

Full transcript of Louis Tomlinson interview on The Project - with screenshots
His first interview in 2 years! Did his team vet these questions? Did they blacklist anything? Will there ever be a time when Louis has a media team on his side? Will we get more gratuitous use of 7 to have a total of 4 7s across this week's Larrieverse? UPDATE- here's my 7 masterpost
Watch the full interview on YT 
Tumblr media
:read more:
INT CARRIE BICKMORE: Louis Tomlinson welcome to The Project!
LT: Hello, hello, thanks for having me.
INT BICKMORE: Great to have you here. I mean, It’s been a long time in the making. Two years I think since this tour was meant to happen. You played your first gig in Brissie last night, how did it go?
LT: It’s amazing, the crowd were unbelievable. I think it’s about 7 years since I’ve been in Australia. Absolutely love this country and the crowd were amazing.
INT PETER HELLIAR: And this was your first tour without the old band of course, are you loving the freedom that comes with being a solo artist?
LT: Yeah it’s exciting but it’s also challenging, you know, being part of a group, you can only put so much of yourself into that, so suppose this tour, it’s just been – it’s already taught me quite a lot, to be fair. I’ve had to kind of take on my own independence musically and creatively, but that’s definitely been fun.
INT WALEED ALY: I feel like you’ve all done that creatively. Solo stuff sounds quite different to the stuff you were doing together. I imagine it’s very different writing a song when Simon Cowell isn’t breathing down your neck and ticking things off.
LT: [makes this face]
Tumblr media
INT BICKMORE: [laughs like she knows Simon's evil]
INT ALY: Like do you – like is there – is there some kind of feeling that you’re finally doing the music you’d always wanted to do?
LT: For myself, yeah, for myself, definitely, but I think you know when you look at the One Direction stuff, that’s stuff that I’m obviously immensely proud of. And you know it was kind of amazing for what it was but obviously now I’m going out and doing my own stuff. For me it’s just been about trying to create the record that I want to create but also, you know, not alienating the fans – kind of meeting in the middle of those two ideas really.
INT LISA WILKINSON: Well your fans are very passionate and they do occasionally like to throw gifts at you onstage. You’ve had plenty of things hurled up there over your career. What is weirdest thing that has either ever landed in front of you or hit you?
LT: That’s a good question, to be fair. Someone threw a burger up the other day, it’s kind of random, I threw it back, to be fair – [making this face thinking about fans]
Tumblr media
INT WILKINSON: Was it still in the wrapper?
LT: It was still in the wrapper to be fair, yeah, untouched, yeah, but I didn’t eat it.
INT BICKMORE: You said it was 7 years since you’ve been here last time. What are you wanting to do Down Under? Is there stuff you didn’t get to do last time or that you loved doing last time that you can’t wait to do again?
LT: Not anything too specific really, I just - I just love this country, I love being here. I’ve done a lot of traveling this year and I’ve seen a lot of different places but Australia feels close to home, it’s just a shame we’ve come in winter, the weather’s shit.
INT ALY: Although have you seen the weather in the UK? It’s not looking much better right now.
LT: Yeah man, yeah, yeah, yeah, it’s crazy, it’s crazy.
INT HELLIAR: Louis, there’s been a bit of 1D beef recently thanks to Liam, he’s been speaking out about the band a little bit. When you look back on your experience with the band how do you feel about those days?
Tumblr media
LT: Oh so the fishing’s begun already, um, yeah, I see what you’re doing. No listen, I – I – I’m immensely proud, as I know Liam is, I’m immensely proud of those days, obviously, I mean, you know, it was an incredible thing to do and especially at such a young age. Amazing memories, man, amazing memories.
INT BICKMORE: But Louis when you say, Oh, you know, the fishing’s begun, I imagine it is so annoying having to answer retrospective questions like that. I’m genuinely interested - how much do you want to talk about that time in your life to the media versus how much you never want to have to talk about it ever again?
LT: No, good – good – good question, I mean, I’m more than happy to talk about it in every interview, it’s something I’m immensely proud of as I’ve already said, it’s just when you mentioned the beef before it sounds like you were getting ready to stir some shit up, that’s all I’m saying.
INT BICKMORE: No, I’m not actually –
INT HELLIAR: No I’m not a shit-stirrer, Louis, do I look like a shit-stirrer?
LT: [laughs but doesn’t answer]
INT ALY: These guys definitely aren’t stirrers, Louis, but I am, and I’ve spotted something overnight –
LT: [laughs] Here we go –
Tumblr media
INT ALY: - that will make you incensed. It turns out that a Texas university announced overnight that it’s launching a new course on Harry Styles called Harry Styles And The Cult of Celebrity. That should be you, shouldn’t it?
LT: [eyes narrowed, looking irritated] Yeah, I don’t really have any interest in having a course made about me, to be fair, but each to their own.
INT ALY: I mean it’s a very strange thing not to be interested in?
LT: You sound very interested, to be fair, maybe you should sign up. [tight lipped sharp smile]
Tumblr media
INT BICKMORE: He’s done every degree you can imagine, just add that to your list.
INT ALY: Louis, I may have designed that course.
INT WILKINSON: Walls, your debut album, dropped over 2 years ago now. When can we expect a follow up?
LT: Soon, soon, very soon. I’m pretty much done with the record, feel really excited about it, that’s all I’m going to say.
INT HELLIAR: And what’s it called, Louis?
LT: Not telling you, not telling you. You’ll have to wait and see.
INT HELLIAR: Just give us the track listing then.
LT: Not having none of that.
INT BICKMORE: So there’s just a few tickets left for Louis’ Aussie shows so grab your burgers, head to our website, get ready to go to the show.
