One Direction 'have naked photos locked away'

One Direction have revealed the existence of naked photos taken on a recent trip to Aberdeen.

The X Factor boyband confessed to going skinny-dipping during the Scottish leg of the ITV show's live tour, but told the Sunday Mirror that photographic evidence of the event is being tightly guarded.

Louis Tomlinson of the group said: "We went to the seaside in Aberdeen. It was absolutely freezing. But we all skinny-dipped!

"We took photos of all of us, but we've got them locked away somewhere nobody can find them."

Tomlinson's bandmate Liam Payne added: "I've still got sand in my pockets. But the funniest thing was, Harry took off all his clothes but kept his shoes on."

The X Factor favourites, who will release their debut single and album this summer, previously spoke of their desire to become known as the "cheekiest boyband" ever.
