One member of One Direction got caught with his pants down! While his fellow boy banders stepped out in their everyday clothing, One Direction's Louis Tomlinson decided to opt out of the norm... and out of his slacks. Someone needs to direct this Direction dude to a pants store!

Looking like an escaped mental patient, especially with Zayn gripping him like he'll break free at any moment, the eldest One Direction band member emerged for some photos wearing nothing but a hospital gown. On top of that, he turned around and flashed his bare legs and red, white and blue boxer briefs. While this was most certainly a staged stunt, it still makes for an awesomely hilarious band photo fail.

We're surprised Harry Styles didn't pull this prank, since he's the one who loves getting naked in public. No, seriously, he does!
