Justin Bieber has a friend in Louis Tomlinson.

The One Direction singer took to Twitter on Friday to defend The Biebs amidst the bad press he’s received while in London, writing, “Although I don’t know him personally, I do wish the press would take it easy on @justinbieber.”

Tomlinson added in another tweet, “I really do empathize with him, I don’t see anything out of character in comparison to any other teenagers I know.”

As Gossip Cop previously reported, Bieber had a rough time while touring in the city.

He was criticized for going on late at one of his concerts, collapsed on stage, got into a shouting match with a photographer outside his hotel and had his birthday celebration ruined by “overly aggressive” “dummies.”

Do you agree with Tomlinson that the media is being unjustly hard on Bieber?

One Direction and Jake Bugg are feuding.

The trouble started after Bugg, a popular young singer-songwriter in England, called the boy band “terrible” in Shortlist.

When the interviewer mentioned that One Direction represented the “closest thing to rock stars” in the current climate, Bugg replied, “Who the f*ck is saying that?”

He continued:

“Oh, I’m pretty sure they have a good laugh. But it’s easy to, isn’t it? When you don’t have to write any songs. People [call them the new Beatles] because they broke America, but that don’t mean a thing. I mean, [One Direction] must know that they’re terrible. They must know… Calling them the new rock stars is a ridiculous statement. And people should stop making it.”

When the hugely popular group caught wind of Bugg’s remarks, they struck back.

“Hi @JakeBugg do you think slagging off boy bands makes you more indie?” asked Louis Tomlinson on Twitter.

Niall Horan wrote, “Really buggs me that artists we’re fans of, flip on us in the press!”

Complicating matters further is that Bugg has been spotted recently with Cara Delevingne, a model previously linked to One Direction’s Harry Styles.

The new spat comes immediately after a public war of words between the boy band’s Liam Payne and Boy George.
