Little Mix's Jade Thirlwall on One Direction drug video: "That's what 20-year-olds do"

Little Mix star Jade Thirlwall has backed One Direction after two of their members were embroiled in a drugs row.

The group's Zayn Malik and Louis Tomlinson were featured in a leaked video taken in April which saw the duo pass a joint around inside a van.

Malik in particular is clearly seen puffing away on the reported drug and the duo have come under fire for the clip.

However, Little Mix vixen Jade Thirlwall told The Metro that their actions were just the norm for people their age.

She said: "Everyone makes mistakes. They are just lads. That's what 20-year-olds do.”
