Nicole Scherzinger Tells One Direction Fans Not To Worry About Zayn Malik And Louis Tomlinson After Smoking Weed Video Scandal; They Are ‘Last Thing’ On X Factor Judge’s Mind

Nicole Scherzinger told MTV that One Direction fans have nothing to worry about after the Zayn Malik and Louis Tomlinson smoking weed video scandal. The former "X Factor" judge, who met One Direction during their audition, said the boys are doing "just fine" and that Nicole Scherzinger has more important things on her mind!

"The last thing I need to be worrying about is One Direction, okay?" Nicole Scherzinger told MTV. "They are just fine. Those boys are floating on cloud nine, they have got everything in the world, they've taken over."

She added: "I think they're just fine. I think they have it under control."

Nicole's words will likely comfort Directioners, who have been concerned about Zayn Malik and Louis Tomlinson after a video of them smoking weed in the back of a van in Peru was leaked for all the world to see.

It led to Louis Tomlinson's girlfriend Eleanor Calder joining One Direction on their tour 2014, reportedly to keep watch over Louis and keep him out of trouble.

"Eleanor is a great influence on Louis, he's always just so much happier when she's around," the source explained to the Sun. "They are joined at the hip whenever she comes on tour."

Nicole suggested that she has other things to worry about besides One Direction and their recent scandal. Perhaps she is preoccupied with buying a home in London, after rumors suggested that she wanted to be closer to her boyfriend of eight years, Lewis Hamilton.

As we previously reported, Nicole Scherzinger and her boyfriend of eight years are thought to have celebrated their anniversary earlier this month. The former "X Factor" judge and her F1 racer boyfriend were spotted on a romantic trip to Venice, Italy, where they went sight-seeing and took a gondola ride. Nicole Scherzinger and Lewis Hamilton, 29, indulged in PDA as they held hands, wrapped their arms around each other, and chatted away on the gondola.
