One Direction Grab a Kebab and Hit on Old Ladies in New Music Video Midnight Memories

Cementing their fun-loving image, boy band One Direction are seen frolicking in the streets of London in their new music video Midnight Memories. 

After a whirlwind year of touring, the group are on a short break while preparing for their gargantuan stadium world tour, Where We Are. Taking some time off they managed to show the world they aren't tired yet. 

Beginning the video at a seemingly dull house party, the group leave to make their own rave. 

Wolverine is that you? 

Singing "now im at the age when I know what I need" they enter a kebab shop where Niall the Neanderthal  grabs some of that doner with his teeth, Harry gets down and dirty serving the customers and Liam consumes too much chilli sauce. 

After Harry and Louis get familiar with the local OAPs, the gang grab themselves some motorised scooters. Don't ruin your quiffs lads. 

After stealing a police boat (naughty) they storm the Thames lip syncing their little hearts out.

and my personal favourite.. 

not so hot now is he ladies?

If we learn anything from this video it's that 1D pride themselves in a party that contains re-constituted meat, fire extinguishers and motorised scooters. 

AlunaGeorge at Shepherd's Bush London

Back in July, I attended a festival in Spain called Benicassim, which gathered together a variety of acts in several genres. Despite big names like The Killers and The Arctic Monkeys, it was small time duo Alunageorge who were one of my firm favourites during the week of music.

After bagging myself some tickets for their Shepherd's Bush set at the end of October, I was really excited to see more from the subtle, understated and altogether ethereal group made up of Aluna Francis and George Reid. Before the gig even began, I grabbed some drinks with friends and saw Reid standing behind us, casually chatting to a girl before he went on stage.

It certainly is hard to describe the sheer skill in which they make their electropop addictive and wild, yet utterly unnervingly calm. Francis' smooth and high notes resonated in the small venue and as she sang multiple tracks from the Body Music album, the audience was no doubt haunted by her voice.

The perfect encore of White Noise confirmed to me that they are definitely an act I want to see again, and I can't wait for more music.

Justin Bieber Disgusts his Fans by Turning Up to His Concert 2 Hours Late

Prince of Pop Justin Bieber sent fans into a frenzy when he revealed he would be playing at London's O2 Arena for four nights this month. However 'Beliebers' were extremely let down when the Canadian singer arrived to his first show last night two hours late. 

                             From i.telegraph.co.uk

As thousands of excited fans descended on the Greenwich venue last night, eagerly anticipating the moment they would see their 19 year-old idol in the flesh, they were no less than disgusted when Bieber decided to show up at 10.35pm, a mere 25minutes before his set was due to finish. A large majority of his fans were under the age of 16, so were accompanied by extremely agitated andunsatisfied parents.  Many took to Twitter to express their anger at the 'Beauty and the Beat' singer's "disgusting behaviour". Others on the social networking site claimed the singer did not apologise and "what he did last night was really arrogant".

Because he had such young fans and the event had taken place on a school night, many parents were forced to leave the event early as their children were tired and disappointed. In addition, the last train from the venue was at 12:15am and with pressure to leave from the warnings of Transport For London, a majority of fans missed some, if not all of the show- the set was also cut down by half an hour to conform to time constraints.

Bieber was supported by actor Will Smith's son, 14 year-old Jaden and Carly Rae Jepson followed. The O2 claimed Jepson would be on until 8pm and Justin would appear half an hour later, but he never showed. By 9:30pm, sources claimed that booing began and fans became extremelyrestless. For those who paid more than £60 for a ticket, many are expected to demand refunds.

There was no reason given as to why the star was so late for his performance, and the Official O2  Arena Twitter account simply posted "Justin Bieber is now on stage and apologies for the lateness of his show" at 11:36pm.
