One Direction star Louis Tomlinson has stopped wearing those trademark skinny jeans.

On Jack Saunders' Radio 1's Indie Show, Tomlinson revealed that he has stopped wearing skinny jeans to "protect his b******s", reports metro.co.uk.

When asked how many pairs of skinny jeans he currently owned, Tomlinson said: "Right now, I've got a couple of pairs. But I spent years wearing skinny jeans in my band. I've got to protect my b******s at this stage. Be safe, you know what I mean."
