Could this be a classic diva mistake?
The Chainsmokers recently chatted with The Morning Mash Up on SiriusXM and they revealed Mariah Carey thought they were One Direction. Alex explained, “I remember seeing her and I was like, ‘Oh my god, like ‘Fantasy’ and ‘Honey.’ And she was like, ‘Dude, I love you guys.’ And we were like, ‘Wow, you know who we are?’ And she’s like, ‘One Direction, right?'”

Once the video was posted to Twitter, Marah, in true diva fashion, responded with, “@TheChainsmokers of course I know you! I love your song, ‘That’s what makes you beautiful!'”

Not really sure how you could Mix up The Chainsmokers with One Direction – The Chainsmokers are a duo whereas One Direction was a five (then four) member group. Andrew and Alex are late 20’s to earlier 30’s and One Direction range from 25-years old to 27. One is together, one is not – you get where I am going? At least The Chainsmokers had a good laugh about it!
