Payne took to Twitter before the group performed on Wednesday, writing: "Right everybody concert time lets try and keep the pg rating lol for Christ sake somebody help me restore sanity."
Describing the fans' reaction to the video as "weird s**t", he wrote: "Woah... everyone just calm down and don't do anything stupid cuz u can't take it back.
"I know some people are having a laugh and that's all well and good but some people will take this s**t serious so I suggest we stop."
He then asked fans to start new hashtags, after #cutforzouis and #zouispastmethatblunt began trending worldwide.
"Today is such a weird day why don't we do a #wearahoodyfor1d or a #WearAsManyClothesAsYouCanAtOnceFor1D," he said.
