PopBase: On the comeback episode of AfterDark with Cara Zayn, Oscar Ward sensationally revealed he once had an acid-fuelled threesome with fellow band member Riley Hamilton. The Weekend star then went on to candidly speak on his infamously difficult relationship with Billy Khan, branding it "intense" but "brotherly". Oscar also cleared the air on the rumours regarding his political stances, dismissing claims he supports the Conservative Party.

curlyward: @PopBase The stories, the swearing, the laughter, I can see the old Oscar coming back!! 🥺😭🙏

inzayn4cara: @PopBase omg the queen needs to interview the others individually (not B*lly) as well! She does such an amazing job! 💖

spoonsofsuga: @PopBase Forgot how wild and iconic he is. Billy and married life really dimmed his light over the years. Kinda here for an Oscar renaissance. He's really entertaining! 👏

SapphicSummers: @PopBase So that's Dustyn, Billy, Riley and now Oscar. This band is a little sweet! Fruity kings! 🏳️‍🌈🌈💃 And Scott.

JuneauItsTrue: @PopBase the way that all the fan fiction stories that 14 year old Weekenders were writing back in the day were lowkey kinda true behind the scenes!! 😭😆

mattietweets: @PopBase Cannot stand him and his smarmy private school voice and demeanour. I understand the rumours. He just radiates Young Conservative energy. Makes my skin crawl. Totally see why he irks Billy 🤢

PaladinBlue: @PopBase see what happens when Billy is ignored and someone else gets the spotlight? This was an amazing interview! He and Cara had such great chemistry.

OzlidhForever: @PopBase WE NEED SOLO OSCAR!! 📢👏

IanS98: @PopBase IDK he radiates bad vibes. Say what you like about Billy but he's real and authentic. Maybe to a fault, yes, but Oscar seems a little uppity and false. Bullshit PR answers about their relationship and politics. "I'm not the biggest fan of the whole political thing in general". Well some of us weren't born with a silver spoon and have the privilege to ignore what our politicians are doing 🤷‍♂️

EmpressInDistress: @PopBase was Riley even OK with this information being released bc if not that's kinda... 💀💀💀

suziemays: @PopBase The original IT boy! Period! ✨

Khumshot: @PopBase Billy is better

RealRiHamilton: Throwback.



OscarJWard: @RealRiHamilton important lore.

ThatMusicSite: Written by member Chris Adams while "high as a kite", The Zone's new single "HYSTERIA" is an oddball of a pop song dedicated to all the questions and scenarios that make us mere mortals doubt our sanity and sense of purpose. It's actually pretty catchy! lnk.to/TheZoneHysteriaSingle

DaddyBilal: @CupidCupcake and it took them 10 years and a dead industry to get that. NEXT!

PopThatRecord: @ThatMusicSite this song is weird in such a wonderful way! The Zone? Who knew!! 💃

GoodnessGrimmie: @ThatMusicSite Doesn't matter if it's boppy, it still gives a certain someone a platform. Ew.
