Louis admitted that he's a bit boring when it comes to what he lists on his rider, telling Fleur, Greg and James that he loves a good cuppa! The pop star, who was born in Doncaster said he's happy if he can have some Yorkshire teabags waiting for him backstage, joking,
"I'm not going to lie, I've never had a good rider. I realised, pretty early on, it blew my mind - the idea of a rider. The only thing that's ever on my rider, honestly, and it's properly stereotypical, is Yorkshire tea teabags.
"That's literally it!"

The 'Two of Us' singer also admitted that he liked to have some good chocolate and sweets backstage. Sounds like something we can sort for Hits Live Manchester.
The former X Factor judge also opened up about his feelings about the new show, X Factor: Celebrity, telling the Breakfast team, "It were a different experience, it's a slightly different show. Personally, I buy into real stories."
Louis went on to explain, "I do think it's a good idea, from the Champions idea to The Band thing. And I think that's pretty interesting."
Fleur then asked the former One Direction singer if he would consider being a judge on the show. Admitting he really loved being a judge last year, Louis said he would have done it again, but it took up his life.
