Niall Horan lashes out against his obsessive fans

Poor Niall.

While British boyband One Direction have been on hiatus, it's given a chance for the lads to breathe, work on personal projects and spend time with family and friends like any person would. While Louis, Harry, Niall and Liam have stopped recording music together, the One Direction hype machine has not. While trying to relax and enjoy his down time, our pal Niall has been suffering the ugly side of fame. The poor bloke. Following a very weird video as a tribute to Niall and his new girlfriend, the latest obsessive feat carried out by his adoring fans has really pissed the Mullingar native off. While taking a flight from London to Chicago, the ex-One Direction singer wisely decided to get a few hours sleep but while catching a few Z's, a fan took an unsolicited photo and posted it to Facebook. Despite Niall asking for no pictures to be taken, the deluded fan gushed about her recent trip and meeting Niall.

"And to sum up the PERFECT European adventure, I sat directly next to Niall from One Direction for 9 hours on my flight home from London last night. He was sick and asked for no selfies, but here is a pic I snapped when he was sleeping lol he was so friendly! Talked about Ireland, LSE, lolla, and more. Not a British duke... But an Irish popstar will do. thanks for treating me so well Europe"

Niall responded to the fan's picture on Twitter, disgusted that a fan could be so inhumane and snap him while asleep.

I think this shit is unreal. I mean if you can't sleep on a plane without people taking photos of you,what can u do pic.twitter.com/3UvgLpHOcE
