Louis Tomlinson: Solo path 'intimidating' post-One Direction
23 Jan
Summary
- Louis Tomlinson finds solo career post-One Direction 'intimidating'.
- He used fan confidence and tour experiences to overcome self-doubt.
- Fans of Taylor Swift mistakenly promoted his album, aiding its reach.

Louis Tomlinson recently shared that embarking on a solo career after the immense success of One Direction felt 'intimidating.' He revealed on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon that the confidence gained from his last two tours was essential for navigating this transition, emphasizing the crucial role his fans played.
Tomlinson also detailed creative album promotion, hiding coordinates in reviews that led fans to billboards spelling out his album title, 'How Did I Get Here?'. Intriguingly, a miscommunication involving Taylor Swift's fanbase led to unexpected, free promotion for his record, a development he found amusing.
His new album, released on January 23, four years after his last musical output, is described by Tomlinson as 'The record I always deserved to make,' highlighting his commitment to honesty and continuous artistic growth. He aims to be the artist he always envisioned, driven by fan support and a desire to avoid complacency.
