PHOTOS FROM THE SHOW ARE ON THE WAY :) AND OUR 1D INTERVIEW [during which One Direction do Pokémon impersonations & pretend to be members of the Obama family].
(Source: coupdemainmagazine.com)
One Direction applauded us & said we “SMASHED IT”! We gave them cake-pops of their faces, they all wore masks of each Obama family member, they made Pokemon impersonations, Zayn found out he is a [adoptive] father of a zebra from Auckland Zoo, Harry loved his cat-print bowtie, Louis = carrot cake in the shape of a carrot, Liam gave us good advice & Niall is excited to listen to his Jamie McDell CD. THANK YOU LIAM FOR INVITING US TO THE SHOW TOMORROW!!
I agonised over writing this interview for a whole week. I think, maybe the most, that I’ve ever worried. Especially after last week, in retrospect I was panicky about the fact that I didn’t really talk to Chris much about actual Vampire Weekend songs/music… but I think those kinds of questions are best addressed to Ezra… and I really didn’t want to write an article that reads just like every other Vampire Weekend feature, or repeats stuff we’ve already covered (if you wanna know our thoughts on ‘Contra’ - read our album review yeah?) So, I kinda compromised? And wrote a really ridiculously long intro to make up for my Baio-focused questioning. Hope it’s okay - please don’t hate me this week, I’m too tired x
