If the pop star thing doesn't work out for the guys in One Direction, they can always pursue careers as stand up comedians and/or professional impressionists. In fact, the fab five got in a bit of practice doing impressions at a recent concert in Australia. The audience loved their "bits." And why not? They were hilarious. Of course, with all due respect to the guys, they picked targets who were easy for them to mimic. They impersonated each other.
At a recent concert on their ongoing Australian tour, the boys of 1D were asked to do their very best impressions--of each other.The results were not only incredibly funny but also quite accurate. Niall Horan impersonated Louis Tomlinson, while Louis mimicked Zayn Malik--which is rather odd. One would think Louis would have done an impersonation of Harry Styles since they're having a big bad bromance. Go figure. Meanwhile, Harry Styles chased Liam Payne. But, shouldn't Harry have done his impression of his bromance partner, Louis, so that Niall could impersonate his bromantic partner, Liam? Whatever. It's getting too complicated.
You can figure it out for yourself by watching the video below. All the impressions that the One Direction members chose to do are spot on matches. And some are truly hilarious. Louis, as Zayn, commenting, "Listen. I don't like dancin', but I love singin'," is a perfect example.
Enjoy.
