Video: Niall Horan getting caught ogling Genie Bouchard actually worked out pretty well for him

Priceless

Niall Horan’s gaze was focused in only one direction at the US Open the other day.

The problem with being a member of the biggest boy band in the world is that when you go to events, there will always be eyes on you.

Such was the case for pop star Niall Horan when he attended Eugenie Bouchard’s US Open third round win over Polona Hercog on Wednesday. The Mullingar man was badly caught out at the end of the game when cameras panned to him as he appeared transfixed staring at the the Canadian tennis star.

Upon realisation that he was being broadcast to TV screens around the globe, the Mullingar man brought his ogling to a halt and looked up in horror at the big screen in the stadium.

It may have been a slightly embarrassing experience for the young singer, but the Bouchard’s response to the clip on Twitter should ease the pain a great deal.

And just as we suspected, it did.
