One Direction's Liam Payne has revealed that some celebrities were acting like "divas" during the recording of the new Band Aid 30 single.

The singer told BBC Radio 1 that he didn't witness any of the diva behaviour himself, but heard about it through Bob Geldoff, "We actually managed to get in the recording booth first so we were done in like an hour so we left. I missed all the drama.

"Bob did a little speech at the start. I say a little speech but it was the most epic thing I've ever heard in my life... He said to our manager, 'There are so many people here and you guys are the least fussed'. And I was like 'Yes. We're not divas. That's so good.' I'm not going to repeat the word he used to describe them but he wasn't happy with some people."
