We cannot live up to fan fiction: 5 Seconds Of Summer

The stars of 5 Seconds of Summer are utterly embarrassed by overly romanticised fan fiction.

The Australian pop rock band, which is comprised of members Luke Hemmings, Michael Clifford, Calum Hood and Ashton Irwin, has millions of adoring listeners all over the globe.

But while reading fan fiction about themselves, the musicians confess their cheeks often turn red with mortification due to the grossly inaccurate and highly sentimental storylines, reported BBC Radio.

"It makes you sound embarrassingly romantic, which makes me feel bad about my actual self," Ashton said, admitting he's read fan fiction about himself online in the past.
 

Guitar player and vocalist Michael echoes his bandmate's take on the phenomenon.

"That's very true. They do these things online called 'imagines.' And it's like, 'Imagine going on a date with Michael and you take a moonlit walk down the beach and stuff.' When, in reality, we go for a date and it's like, you go for popcorn and coffee. And then you go to the club... We just go to the pub," Michael noted.
