Leona Lewis on obsessive fans: 'It must be terrible being One Direction'

Leona Lewis isn't sure how One Direction can handle some of their more enthusiastic sections of their fanbase.

The boyband have one of the most devoted fans around and they will often do all they can to get close to their idols.

One fan last year managed to steal Liam Payne's underwear from his hotel in Australia and speaking to Digital Spy, Lewis said she feels lucky she doesn't have to go through similar incidents.

She said: "I've been quite lucky in that sense. I've never had anyone hide in a bedroom [or had] someone get into my hotel room.

"What One Direction have, that's just terrible. Oh my God, those boys. Boybands, phew, that's a whole other level [of fandom]. I'm good."

Lewis was speaking ahead of the release of her first film Walking on Sunshine today (June 27), which is a musical based on a whirlwind romance.
