Los Angeles, Aug 1 (THAINDIAN NEWS) Louis Tomlinson will from now on and for the near future performances be performing while wearing earplugs. This has come about after the realization that he has now gone partially deaf after in one year after the persistent loud screaming of his bands dedicated fans while performing.

The 20 year old performer listened to the screams from their adoring fans that resulted in him getting headaches after the show that was held in Liverpool last week. The managers of the quintet consisting of Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, and Liam Payne alongside Louise mentioned that they would now have to perform with their earplugs on amid the worries of what continuous subjection to the loud noises would have on the performers.

Louis has also been advised against playing music too loudly including in his iPod although his condition has not been formally diagnosed and since if left untreated the condition can lead to deafness. Their management is also concerned and has insisted they wear hi tech filters and earpieces to help reduce the loudness and volume of the music.

Louis was quoted saying “I am going slightly deaf in my right ear. its tinnitus…something like that” right before headlining at the city`s Radio city live. Fellow performer Chris Martin from the legendary rock band “Coldplay” also admitted to suffering from the same condition as a result of playing loud music.
