The X Factor: Liam Payne and Louis Tomlinson brand Mason Noise ‘pathetic’


Liam Payne and Louis Tomlinson have slammed ‘The X Factor’s Mason Noise over his "pathetic" argument with Simon Cowell.

The One Direction hunks – who found fame on the talent show – have spoken out to criticise the controversial contestant after he accused Simon and the show’s producers of editing down footage of his audition and giving other hopefuls more air time during the Six Chair Challenge.

Louis said: "I think his argument was pretty pathetic.

"What is stupid about that is that he has ruined the opportunity for himself. He would have definitely had a chair and then he could have impressed."

However, although Mason walked out on the competition following the incident, he’s now been brought back to replace Tom Bleasby at Nick Grimshaw’s Judges’ Houses after Tom decided to quit the show.

But Liam has warned the outspoken wannabe to choose his words more carefully in future.

He told ITV’s ‘Good Morning Britain’: "There is a certain point where you can say things. If you are Kanye West you can say whatever you want, that just happens.

"If you are still making your way and trying to climb the ladder you have to realise the point you are at in your life and where you could get to.

"Dreaming is good but you don’t just jump in and say, ‘I’m the best’."
