Take That Urge One Direction To "Stay As A Unit"
Amid reports the 1D lads are working on solo projects, Gary Barlow and Co offer their advice to the boyband of the moment...
Veteran man band Take That have offered their advice to One Direction, urging them to "stay as a unit".
After Gary Barlow joked that the 1D lads "should be giving us advice", Howard Donald went on to tell MTV News while promoting new track for movie Kingsman: The Secret Service: "I think they should stay as a unit.
"When somebody has a problem in the band, it's always something not to be ignored and to always discuss it by themselves as a five, not even necessarily with management.
"Just be themselves and get to know each other - I'm sure they know each other very well, but we don't know what happens behind closed doors … we don't know who gets on and who doesn't get on."
He added: "I guess they're all great friends and it's about talking to each other", with bandmate Mark Owen agreeing: "Look after each other and take the time to ask…
"Now and again, it's just worth checking in with yourself and checking in with everybody."
Barlow concluded: "I've spent quite a bit of time with all of them really - they are all great fun.
"The one thing I always think about with them is they are enjoying it and that's right, enjoy it while it's here - you don't know what the future is for any of us."
Kingsman: The Secret Service is due for release in the UK on January 29.
15 Times Take That Made Us Cry
-
We had serious flashbacks to 1995 today when Jason Orange announced his decision to leave Take That… for good. Though the boys seem to be parting peacefully, we can't help but shed a tear - and this isn't the first time the fabulous five have upset us. -
When they split up. 13th February 1996 was a dark day in the life of every Take That fan.Getty -
When Robbie left. Robbie had outgrown the boy band by June 1995. But we didn't want anything to change.Getty -
When they got back together. The boys relit our fire in 2005, and we wept tears of joy.Getty -
When Robbie rejoined. Just when we thought Take That couldn't get any better, Robbie returned in 2010. It was the greatest day of our lives.Getty -
When Mark got off with that girl in the Babe video. There wasn't one 90s teen who didn't hate her with a fiery passion.Getty -
When they released A Million Love Songs. Genuinely one of the greatest ballads ever written. That Barlow's a genius. *sob*Getty -
When Gary danced. Aw. He tried, bless him.Getty -
When Mark chopped off his curtains. Mark Owen had THE BEST hair in 1995.Getty -
When we all thought Never Forget was about Robbie. It wasn't. The original recording of the song had a solo by Robbie near the end.Getty -
When Robbie and Gary were feuding in public. And we were all like, come on guys, remember when you used to be friends?Getty -
When Robbie and Gary fell in love again. And they released Shame, and the video was a bit Brokeback Mountainy. SO cute.Getty -
When Mark confessed to being a naughty boy. We were shocked when the baby faced band member confessed to having “about ten” affairs in 2010. "I have been an idiot, a d***head, a k***head. All of the above and more,” he said. Yup.Getty -
When they donated their Marks & Spencer money to charity. Because they're not just hot pop stars, they're lovely people too.Getty -
When they won their Ivor Novello Award for their Outstanding Contribution to British Music. Totally, TOTALLY deserved. -
When they closed the 2012 Summer Olympics. Despite a recent personal tragedy for Barlow, the boys sang their hearts out. It was totes emosh.Getty
