5SOS talk private jets, chocolate milk and the mile high club

Australian punk rock band 5 Seconds Of Summer are looking forward to the day they can travel by private jet.

The Don’t Stop singers have been supporting One Direction on their world tour but have been forced to travel by bus while the 1D lads zipped off in their own private jets.

‘We couldn’t afford our own jets yet. That’s the thing you can do once you’ve done massive things in your career,’ 19-year-old Ashton Irwin from the band told Guilty Pleasures.

Jets could soon be on the band’s shopping list, however, as their self-titled album out this week is hotly tipped to top the charts around the world.

However Irwin says any mid-air antics would be pretty tame.

‘There would probably be some chocolate milk and maybe an X Box,’ he said, adding: ‘And none of us would join the Mile High club.’
