Louis Tomlinson

Louis Tomlinson

Born in Doncaster, South Yorkshire, England, Louis William Tomlinson, born as Louis Troy Austin, had an early career as a child actor. Louis was born on December 24, 1991 to his mother Johannah Poulston and his father Troy Austin. They split when he was really young, so he ended up taking his step-father's last name: Tomlinson.

 Louis has 5 younger half-sisters, two of whom were on the TV show Fat Friends. After not doing too well at the Hayfield school, he switched to Hall Cross school and ended up in several musicals. He also had a number of jobs, including at a movie theater and as a waiter in hospitality suites at a football stadium. 

As many know, One Direction auditioned for the X-Factor, and came in 3rd place! Louis Tomlinson was inspired to audition for the X-Factor because he was the star role, Danny Zuko, in his high school musical Grease.

Now, ladies, don't get too "twitterpated," because Louis has a girlfriend. Upsetting, right?!? She is a Manchester University politics and sociology student, Eleanor Calder. She is definitely a very lucky lady.
