Nathan Followill fooled by All Saints mix up

Written by . Published: March 26 2014

Kings Of Leon rocker Nathan Followill once put on an extra special performance in a desperate bid to impress two girlband singers, but it turned out the women were clothes store workers from a shop with the same name.


The drummer admits he has a soft spot for two unnamed members of British/Canadian four-piece All Saints, and he was thrilled when he heard some of the pop stars would be watching his band's set at a U.K. festival in 2008.


He made sure he put on an eye-catching show to make the women swoon, but he was left disappointed when he later found out they were actually staff from the All Saints female fashion chain.


Followill tells Q magazine, "I was nervous for a completely different reason. There was a girl group back then called All Saints and I fancied two of them. Our manager said, 'A couple of girls from All Saints are going to be side of stage tonight'. I was so nervous: 'What if it's the two I liked?'... but it was actually girls from All Saints clothing shop! I was giving it all, rocking out thinking the girls from All Saints are watching, but it was actually the girls from the shop!"
