The One Direction lads (SCREAM!) are pretty popular with the females of celestial body Earth - the sight of them causes some girls to squeal, faint, leap into the gas or literally explode with excitement on the spot.
So it would be a sad, sad thing for the ladies if they found out Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson, Zayn Malik, Niall Horan and Liam Payne were not interested in them.
And Lance Bass, who was formerly a member of American boyband 'N Sync, thinks this may be the case - he reckons one of 1D might be gay.
Lance is somewhat of an expert in this area having a fancying for the males himself but he doesn't consider we'll find out if any members of One Direction are hiding their true sexuality as he believes record company bosses frown upon revealing this information.
During an interview on The Rubin Report, host Dave Rubin said to the singer: "There is one other place where coming out, I perceive, would be frowne

In a city known for its happy hour culture, summer can be an even better time to take advantage of post-work drink and eat deals. Interns are in town, summer Fridays are in full swing, and patios and rooftops are aplenty. Here are a few prime, non-comprehensive spots for an afternoon deal with besties, colleagues, and new connections.
Alfreda. Dupont’s Alfreda, a tribute to the chef’s grandmother, offers relaxed pizza and traditional Italian eats. The happy hour runs Monday-Friday 4-6 p.m., featuring $8 spritzes and BOGO pizzas. Few do spritzes like the Italians, and Alfreda leans in on five kinds plus one N/A spritz; our go-to is the rose and mezcal with grapefruit or the locally made Don Ciccio limoncello spritz with basil.
Lyle’s. Especially leaning into the spritz side of summer is at Lyle’s, fully embracing the fizzy ephemera of the season with the Summer of Spritz. The Dupont Circle hotel restaurant imagines cocktails from France, Italy, Spain, and Portugal. Spritzes main attraction limoncello and vinho verde. For those that hit Lyle’s every week during the spritz special—and get a literal stam
What if, in 2012, one of the One Direction boys decided to tell the world he was gay? Would his umpteen million devoted female fans grab the news OK? That is the question I asked Lance Bass during an interview on my SiriusXM show, The Six Pack.
"I actually think they would," Bass said, without hesitating. "The younger generation is way smarter than we were. They're way more perceptive, and they just don't care. ... Advocate then there was no way in hell I would approach out."
These are bold words coming from Bass, practically the founding father of the yes-I'm-gay pop-star narrative. Bass is a veteran of the boy-band machine, which has experienced a major resurgence since the rise of the UK's One Direction and The Wanted. In 2006, four years after *NSYNC announced its plans to go on hiatus, he finally came out publicly, appearing on the cover of People Magazine with the headline "I'M GAY."
Have minds and perceptions really changed as quickly as Bass believes? If 1D's Harry or Zayn or Louis or Niall or Liam (did I forget any?) were actually to come out, would they be welcomed with open arms, both by their fans and the industry they've revitalized?
Let me be quick
Lance Bass on One Direction: ‘My Predict Is One of Them Is Gay’
Lance Bass is generally an uncontroversial person (aside from that whole space field trip he wanted to take), but he's found himself embroiled in a bit of controversy after he offered his opinion of One Direction's sexuality.
The former 'N Sync member was on 'The Rubin Report,' to discuss the big news of NBA player, Jason Collins coming out this week. The conversation quickly turned about Lance Bass coming out himself in 2006 and the probability of one of the members of One Direction organism gay himself. Bass said,
"Well, statistically speaking, one probably is. It’s crazy with a market fond that because 100 percent is fresh women. And they fantasize about these guys, and then you have the register label and everyone grooming you to make sure that you don’t even mention you hold a girlfriend. So screw the fact that you’re gonna reach out as entity gay. It ruins their whole business plan."
The man has a very valid point, whether Directioners like it or not, that even if one of the 1D guys is gay, he may feel compelled to hide it eve
