Louis William Tomlinson, born Louis Troy Austin 24 December 1991 , is from Doncaster, South Yorkshire,
England. Born to mother Johannah Poulston and father Troy Austin, his
parents split when he was young and he took on his stepfather Mark
Tomlinson's name.
He has five younger half-sisters: one on his father's side (Georgia),
and four on his mother's side (Charlotte, Félicité, and twins Daisy and
Phoebe). Daisy and Phoebe had roles as babies on TV show Fat Friends; he would go along and serve as an extra. After Fat Friends, he attended an acting school in Barnsley. He had small parts in an ITV1 drama film If I Had You and BBC's Waterloo Road. He was a sixth form student at Hall Cross School, a state comprehensive school, and a former pupil of the Hayfield School. He revealed that he failed his first year of A levels
at the Hayfield School, "mainly because I’d been too busy having fun. I
was out all the time in that first year." He ended up going back to
Hall Cross and started A levels over again. As a student at Hall Cross, Tomlinson starred in several musical productions. Before The X Factor, he had a numbers of jobs, including at a Vue cinema and at Doncaster Rovers football stadium as a waiter in their hospitality suites.
Tomlinson revealed that landing the lead role of Danny Zuko in a high school musical production of Grease motivated him to audition for The X Factor. Tomlinson cites English recording artist and Take That member Robbie Williams as his biggest influence and idol. In an interview with Now Magazine
he stated: "I've always loved Robbie [Williams]. He's just so cheeky,
he can get away with anything. His performances are unbelievable." He also admires recording artist Ed Sheeran, describing him as "phenomenal." In 2011, his mother and step-father announced they were getting a divorce. Tomlinson is currently in a relationship with Manchester University politics and sociology student, Eleanor Calder.♥ LOUIS TOMLINSON ♥
