After showing up at the Brit Awards with Louis Tomlinson looking great in a suit and picking up an award for Best Video for “Drag Me Down,” as reported by Daily Mail, Liam Payne shocked the world by revealing that he was in a relationship with soon-to-be-divorced singer and former X Factor judge Cheryl Fernandez-Versini.

Cheryl is already displaying her mature attitude to the One Direction fan hate fests directed at any female involved with the boys, posting that anyone who hates on you does so “because you’ve got something they want,” as reported by The Sun.

The singer, 32, was inundated with abusive messages over the weekend after The Sun revealed she was dating the musician, 22, but appeared to address the insults by updating her bio on Instagram.

She wrote: “When people hate on you, it’s because you’ve got something they want.. All love. Good vibes only.”

Soon after the Liam and Cheryl news came to light, somebody dug up an old picture of Louis Tomlinson wearing a t-shirt with a flirty mesage encouraging the pretty X-Factor judge to give him a call!

Fans recalled that Louis has always had a crush on Cheryl. When the boys were on the X Factor the brunette judge told them “I can’t even cope with how cute you are!” after a very early performance.

The camera cut to the guys, who pulled some ecstatic facial expressions and made some victorious “Yes!” gestures by pumping their arms. A couple of them even mimed that they were praying, giving thanks for the chance to make body contact with the good-looking judge.

We hope this attraction of Louis’ doesn’t cause any trouble between the members of songwriting super-team Lilo. Especially now that revenge and diss rumors are flying back and forth.

When Louis was spotted in a car with Zayn Malik’s ex Perrie Edwards, on their way to a Brits afterparty, a few outlets speculated that an anti-Zayn alliance could be forming — an alliance comprised of Zayn’s ex-fiance and ex-best friends.

Now it looks like Louis and Liam’s exes have teamed up to show their allegiance with Zayn Malik, who is on good terms with Liam but is said to have had a frostier rapport with Louis since he left One Direction last year.

Sugarscape is reporting that Louis and Liam’s exes have put on a cheeky display.

Louis Tomlinson’s ex-girlfriend Eleanor Calder and Liam’s former flame Sophia Smith have been stirring up some drama by dancing about to Zayn Malik’s ‘PILLOWTALK’ on El’s Snapchat. Ohhhh snap.

Yup – the One Direction ex-gal pals hung out together round London last weekend; and seeing as Louis’ now an actual father to Freddie and Liam’s moved on with Chezza everyone reckons their snap was a super shady response to the fellas. Awkies.

Eleanor Calder and Sophia Smith appeared in a Snapchat video drinking and strutting for the camera as Zayn’s racy hit “Pillowtalk” plays in the background. Eleanor’s voice practically drips with insincere, kinda nasty-sounding tones as she says “Oh hey,” like she has just spotted someone she doesn’t really want to talk to and will now proceed to take them down one self esteem-shredding line at a time.

Sophia dances with a drink in hand. Her assault is subtler and expressed through her light boogying to 1D-hating Zayn’s hit. Bad intentions and a general whiff of nastiness are also projected in the way she stands in solidarity with Eleanor as the latter girl exposes her tongue in serpent-like flicks, and in the sidelong glance Sophia shoots the camera as she sips her drink, encouraging you to drink up the Zayn Malik-soundtracked, booze-fuelled revenge fest.

Whoah! If you think it’s all just our imagination, check out the fan reactions to the Snapchat shade-bomb.

Is One Direction one big soap opera? Will Liam Payne and Louis Tomlinson stay united against the dissers?
