One Direction have confessed that they took a series of naked photos while skinny-dipping on a recent trip to Aberdeen.
Speaking to the Sunday Mirror, The X Factor boyband revealed that during the Scottish leg of the talent show's live tour, they all stripped off, got into the sea and took some saucy snaps - which have since been locked away.

Group member Louis Tomlinson admitted to the tabloid: "We went to the seaside in Aberdeen. It was absolutely freezing. But we all skinny-dipped!"
The 18-year old continued: "We took photos of all of us, but we've got them locked away somewhere nobody can find them."

Tomlinson's fellow bandmate, Liam Payne, then added: "I've still got sand in my pockets. But the funniest thing was, Harry took off all his clothes but kept his shoes on."
The boys, who came third on The X Factor last year, recently revealed that their debut single and album is due for release this June.
