More woes Down Under for One Direction
One Direction's time Down Under has been blighted by more trouble after they were accused of running red lights on the road and heading out on a midnight gambling spree.
The boyband's motorcade reportedly skipped through three stop signs as it spirited the singers from Perth Airport to a hotel in the city late on Wednesday night (25Sep13).
Within minutes of arriving, Harry Styles headed out to sample the
local delights in the early hours of Thursday morning (26Sep13) -
he was photographed playing roulette in the VIP area of the Pearl
Room casino, despite the stars' bosses giving them a serious
dressing down for reckless gambling on their 2012 tour.
Now their behaviour in the city has attracted an official
reprimand, with Australia's Police Minister Liza Harvey telling The
Daily Telegraph, "I would encourage One Direction to pull their
head in in Western Australia and set an example for their
predominantly young fans... We have really strong legislation in
this state and that applies to everyone who visits here."
The boyband's time in Australia had already been marred with
problems - Louise Tomlinson was left red-faced after falling
onstage and the singers had to be rushed from Adelaide airport when
fans tried to mob them.
