Celeb News: BTR Hated 1D Tour!

Apparently BTR wasn't as happy with their tourmates as they seemed! In a recent interview, Kendall Schmidt revealed that it "sucked" to have 1D open for them.

"Let’s put it this way: when One Direction were opening for us, their support was blossoming. As cool as it was to hang out with them, it sucked for us because there would be 2,000 girls outside the show singing their songs, even though we were headlining."

Kendall says they felt like they were being used by their record label in order to promote the 1D boys.

"The only reason we were on tour with them is because we had the same [record] label and they were using us to promote the band in America. We didn’t think that was fair, but it happened and the rest is history."

The Wanted also blamed One Direction for their breakup, but they had drama before. BTR and 1D always seemed like they had such a great time together on tour, so we didn't realize there was this underlying tension.

I dont know, may be because Im not from the US, BUT 1D were HUGE [here & from my thoughts everywhere] when they toured with BTR. When I heard the news I was like WHY.

Kii. If they really think people went to see them, they didn't. Them gurls paid for the opening act.

I'd go see Carlos though

I can understand why. No artist would want to be overshadowed by the opening act of their tour.

Britney Is Fierce

Pressed because 1D overshadowed them

Retro

Shocking.

Cobrastyle.

A Reverse Warholian tea.

One second 1D is supporting act, then suddenly the supporting act is BTR

That is pretty tragic for them.

I remember at the time, people[fans] were saying 1D is Headlining the tour & it was created for them.

What kind of delusion

No offense I actually like BTR, but we live in 2014 1D was already a worldwide fangirl phenomenon in the making while debuting, since girls all over the world drooled over their performances on youtube. This was just perfect for both groups, 1D had an easy steppingstone in the US and BTR was guaranteed the shows would be basically sold out. BTR was always seen as just that group created by Nickelodeon, I think most people think it was a gimmick anyways

Not only that, they had a show that played everyday with their songs being promoted non-stop
