You never hear about this rock band now? From what I can remember, they were actually huge at one point? They just faded away into obscurity. Just goes to show. Fame doesn’t last forever.
"Baby girl asked whats your guilty pleasure?" (IAN)="You just answered it-people are watching like, did he say~" (MIDDLE GUY)="I didnt hear ya."( IAN)="thats good,I was just joking.'" (BLONDE GUY)="No you're not"
Yep. There's two video's of Ian calling Chester "A fucking tit and a cock" as well. Chester's and Chris's lives were worth a hell of a lot more than Ian's is.

He's such a joker so back then when pedo wouldn't have come across your mind you would just always presume he's messing or not even notice what he is actually saying.

He probably was bisexual…and didn’t know how to express it in a healthy manner at all-especially when compounded with sex addiction and later drug addiction (and the fact that LGBT acceptance wasn’t really common in Western countries until about 2010-by then it was too late)…
@@libby1977 "Yeah, lady don't insult the poor guys who only got to have sex with underage groupies instead of a literal toddler like Ian got to do. You're being judgmental."
All the news sources are pointing to this article in regards to an answer that Ian gave in regards to his guilty pleasure. But, its misleading. If the whole interview is listened to and watched, his other bandmates were talking about the group Right Said Fred right before that question was asked to him. What was Ian's reply - You've already answered it, also he remarked that smack was a guilty pleasure. While his drug use was known to people and to fans, as well as his perversions were known for some time before it all came out - from what I can gather from reading different articles - but this is no news whatsoever. Right Said Fred and heroin are his guilty pleasures - well, in this interview they were but now, sadly, we all know what they are. My hope that through all of this, his mates, his family, and those who were abused can be able to pick up the pieces of their lives and begin to move forward. Now, while I want to see Ian punished for his crimes as well, I also would like to see if rehabilitation could be possible, so that, not only does he have to live with the remorse, guilt, etc of all he has done, but also, that he would somehow be made to make some sort of restitution to his victims.
The video with the baby was recorded in 2012 (i think it was april when weapons was released) and you're linking the nickname "babygirl" and his sentence: "you already aswered it" to guess something? If he was aspiring at that time to do such a disgusting act, you can't say that is evidence of why the bandmates knew about it." Lee Gaze, the blond one, is father. How would he be capable of hidding Ian's dark side? well, he's jailed for 35 years. good
They were before Liberation Transmission though, but then Ian started being a nonce and watering down the music to pander to young girls. Absolute scum.
Ian does what Saville did - making outrageous 'jokes' when really he was telling people what he was up to. The same arrogance as well. If he hadn't been stopped, he might have bodied some poor kid. He was making jokes about killing in another video. Total creep.
Everyone just loves to shit on the entire band because of one person huh? If they knew, they would've kicked Ian out or just killed him, considering the rest of the members have children. And they would've been charged as accessories if they knew what he was doing. Ian also stayed at hotels apart from the band and even rode in different cars, and he was known for having a dark sense of humor, so when he was in this interview, he said the hints in a joking way so the members just passed it off as him fucking around and nothing serious.
THANK YOU. Aside from Ian, obviously, who is evil incarnate, the other Lostprophets are all awesome people who had to suffer just as much as we did after Ian's arrest. Now they'll always have to go about being associated with Ian and everyone saying that they're pedophiles or somehow knew the whole time, which they DIDN'T. As if finding out that someone they thought they knew was a pedophile wasn't horrible enough, they get to be slandered by the internet, too!
Pretty good band, they're still listenable - plus there's more than one band member ... if you liked them before everything went downhill, then it shouldn't be as different now, some people (like myself) liked the music because it was catchy and it meant something, it's hard to leave it all behind just like that - it's all about the music, well I hope the other members start a new band.
1) They're certainly a good band, but the only song by them I can listen to now is "We Are Godzilla, You Are Japan" because Ian isn't in it and it's sung by Jamie Oliver instead. 2) They did start a new band, with Geoff Rickly, a much nicer guy than Ian Watkins and the visionary behind Thursday.
@Luna not only that, with the music videos, especially "Town Called Hypocrisy," these people all knew... I don't believe for one second that the rest of the band is innocent AT ALL. They at least knew at a minimum. I'm sick of people who turn their backs in their blissfully ignorant lives to the fact that elite pedophiles can and do run the world!! Majority of famous people, ESPECIALLY A-listers, subject themselves to this shit... they have to for fame and fortune. Elites are literally Luciferian Satanists. People MUST understand that whether you believe in God and Satan doesn't matter... THEY DO, and they literally worship Satan in Satanic rituals which involve pedophilia, necrophilia, murder, rape, canabalism. This stuff is VERY real. It's done because it's their religion they practice, for trauma based mind control (MK Ultra- govt admitted to this program!), and for blackmail purposes. Ian probably did something that the powers that be didn't like, was pry blackmailed and exposed as a result. They do this shit. I believe Peaches Geldof was murdered for speaking up on this particular case. Project Brownstone, look it up. You'll never look at celebrities/royals/elites the same after you dive down this rabbit hole!!
lostprophets are playing in ireland on the 18th may in the academy arena dublin and the 19th of may in mandela hall in belfast i cant wait to see them in dublin buy tickets theirs loads left, they are so funny
Lee, Stuart, Jamie, Mike, and Luke will carry on but for Ian no way because you know Ian is criminal and I think he should spent the rest of his life in prison
Everyone (except Luke and Illan because neither were present in those instances) have had sex with underage girls because underage girls would be with them backstage all the time. This was around 2004- 2005.
Because Lee, Stuart, Jamie, Mike, and Luke were unaware of Ian’s crimes because the rest of the band were living in LA while Ian was living in Wales so they haven’t seen Ian for 9 months
@@recklessintent Who is he blaming? They clearly knew due to the fact they distanced themselves from him, it's pretty obvious. Sorry your feelings got involved.
@@UndersackitchFungalbollock like I said there was a whole lot of distance between them from like the end of them touring liberation until weapons They lived in America, he lived in wales. There was an interview in kerrang where kerrang were heavily indicating about Ian’s drug use and that something wasn’t right when betrayed was about to finally drop So unless of course they were with each other 24/7 and had access to Ian’s laptop then no they didn’t know Ian went missing and the band members had no idea where he was and Stuart knocked him out for it. They knew about his drug use, and they possibly knew about his womanising. Paedos like Ian will disguise their ways by surrounding themselves with people their own age ie fearne cotton and Alexa chung so people don’t suspect anything If you want to carry on blaming the band you do you, if it makes you sleep well at night. These guys had families and I don’t think it’s fair to blame the band; one of them hardly knew Ian as he was new to the band himself as they couldn’t hire a drummer for longer than five minutes Look at the bigger picture, the guy who did these crimes and absolute disgusting acts of depravity is the one we should be blaming and the mothers of those children, and the people who did know? The police constabularies and social services who did nothing. Those are the ones we should be blaming rather than the rest of the band and management who tried many times to intervene with his drug use. Maybe read up on the story rather than use your keyboard as a pitchfork
I don't think they're entirely guilty. Not saying they plunged to the depths of watkins but they did have young girls knocking about backstage just like the rest of them. By them I mean the kerrang type bands who seem to exclusively write music that appeals to teen girls

Anybody notice that Ian can't get into the flow of the conversation? It's like he's incapable of functioning normally in an adult space. All of his quips are 'slotted in' rather than flowing. He's not gel-ling with the guys.
@theroseoftralee i think that was about the lead singer of taproot, they mention chester bennignton half way through then i think ian or lee sorta mumbles 'but the lead singer of taproot' before his speech :p
That comment about seeing the videos is too shady,,,those two were sharing something "going to a dark placec" as Watkins replied ...Watch the interaction between the three of them...At 9.10
JAIL TIME.... the band is gone so sorry for poor judgement yet sicko ? Doing babies and now 29 years in prison will fix that boy ..ALL GONE FOREVER ...
Yeah, that part made my blood run cold. In fairness to the lad who said "I've seen all the videos," it could well have been a joke on his part, completely oblivious to Watkin's deviant ways. Lets imagine a normal group of young men, all friends, locker room talk etc. It wouldn't be abnormal to pretend you'd seen videos of your friend and his sexual conquests, just to poke fun. Unfortunately for him, he likely had no idea whatsoever, the gravity of such a statement.
lol never mind ian being on his phone all the time.. it wos clear he didnt give a shit... anyone catch there comments on the 911 terror (tracks lol) attacks..
@IMaTENefrancia i totally agree with what you said, he is a hyprocrite, but a town called hypocrisy was a good song, but they did changed there music, but i agree with ian, linkin park was one of the best rap metal bands, but... lostprophets were the best rock band when they had the 1st and 2nd album released, its a shame, i wish we could of heard more old lostprophets and old linkin park

All the news sources are pointing to this article in regards to an answer that Ian gave in regards to his guilty pleasure. But, its misleading. If the whole interview is listened to and watched, his other bandmates were talking about the group Right Said Fred right before that question was asked to him. What was Ian's reply - You've already answered it, also he remarked that smack was a guilty pleasure.
While his drug use was known to people and to fans, as well as his perversions were known for some time before it all came out - from what I can gather from reading different articles - but this is no news whatsoever. Right Said Fred and heroin are his guilty pleasures - well, in this interview they were but now, sadly, we all know what they are.
My hope that through all of this, his mates, his family, and those who were abused can be able to pick up the pieces of their lives and begin to move forward. Now, while I want to see Ian punished for his crimes as well, I also would like to see if rehabilitation could be possible, so that, not only does he have to live with the remorse, guilt, etc of all he has done, but also, that he would somehow be made to make some sort of restitution to his victims.
bullshit, he is pure evil and I would bash his head in if given the option. Some people are just evil and they are proud of it.
@@jacob_dcdn basically he was a monster that just lucked out by being extremely handsome and that plus his Fame let him get away
The video with the baby was recorded in 2012 (i think it was april when weapons was released) and you're linking the nickname "babygirl" and his sentence: "you already aswered it" to guess something? If he was aspiring at that time to do such a disgusting act, you can't say that is evidence of why the bandmates knew about it."
Lee Gaze, the blond one, is father. How would he be capable of hidding Ian's dark side?
well, he's jailed for 35 years. good
Because you can't be oaky pedophilia if you have a child. Great logic. Drake Bell is not a pedo if that's the case.
Why is Oliver absent from the interview?
Blonde guy looks like he was the only decent one in the band..
0:17 'One of the greatest UK rock bands ever.' Comedy gold! 🤣
They were before Liberation Transmission though, but then Ian started being a nonce and watering down the music to pander to young girls. Absolute scum.
"I flip the script on shame. Turn it to pride."
Explains how he could so easily justify all the depraved shit he did.
He sure as hell came thick and fast, didn't he? And now he's in prison.
Ian does what Saville did - making outrageous 'jokes' when really he was telling people what he was up to. The same arrogance as well. If he hadn't been stopped, he might have bodied some poor kid. He was making jokes about killing in another video. Total creep.
Yep he was planning a murder
6:15 on your collar, told a tale on you'hoo!
I shudder to think why he keeps checking his mobile for and what them texts contain!!!
69crafty Apparently he had animal porn on his phone.
Playbackjunkie yeah sheep he's welsh
kirsty allchurch Well that makes sense. Ha.
Everyone just loves to shit on the entire band because of one person huh?
If they knew, they would've kicked Ian out or just killed him, considering the rest of the members have children.
And they would've been charged as accessories if they knew what he was doing.
Ian also stayed at hotels apart from the band and even rode in different cars, and he was known for having a dark sense of humor, so when he was in this interview, he said the hints in a joking way so the members just passed it off as him fucking around and nothing serious.
THANK YOU. Aside from Ian, obviously, who is evil incarnate, the other Lostprophets are all awesome people who had to suffer just as much as we did after Ian's arrest. Now they'll always have to go about being associated with Ian and everyone saying that they're pedophiles or somehow knew the whole time, which they DIDN'T. As if finding out that someone they thought they knew was a pedophile wasn't horrible enough, they get to be slandered by the internet, too!
Watching all this video they all was a bunch of tossers. Excluding the blond guy.
yeah keep trying to protect your favorite band , ffs open your eyes and listen at the part around 6:00 it's fucking creepy
yeah keep trying to protect your favorite band , ffs open your eyes and listen at the part around 6:00 it's fucking creepy
You’re a bit naive if you think they didn’t know.. they kept quiet because they knew it would end their band.
Pretty good band, they're still listenable - plus there's more than one band member ... if you liked them before everything went downhill, then it shouldn't be as different now, some people (like myself) liked the music because it was catchy and it meant something, it's hard to leave it all behind just like that - it's all about the music, well I hope the other members start a new band.
1) They're certainly a good band, but the only song by them I can listen to now is "We Are Godzilla, You Are Japan" because Ian isn't in it and it's sung by Jamie Oliver instead.
2) They did start a new band, with Geoff Rickly, a much nicer guy than Ian Watkins and the visionary behind Thursday.
@Luna not only that, with the music videos, especially "Town Called Hypocrisy," these people all knew... I don't believe for one second that the rest of the band is innocent AT ALL. They at least knew at a minimum. I'm sick of people who turn their backs in their blissfully ignorant lives to the fact that elite pedophiles can and do run the world!! Majority of famous people, ESPECIALLY A-listers, subject themselves to this shit... they have to for fame and fortune. Elites are literally Luciferian Satanists. People MUST understand that whether you believe in God and Satan doesn't matter... THEY DO, and they literally worship Satan in Satanic rituals which involve pedophilia, necrophilia, murder, rape, canabalism. This stuff is VERY real. It's done because it's their religion they practice, for trauma based mind control (MK Ultra- govt admitted to this program!), and for blackmail purposes. Ian probably did something that the powers that be didn't like, was pry blackmailed and exposed as a result. They do this shit. I believe Peaches Geldof was murdered for speaking up on this particular case. Project Brownstone, look it up. You'll never look at celebrities/royals/elites the same after you dive down this rabbit hole!!
Witness Me I think Ian does sing parts of that song though.
The other members did start a band. It’s called No Devotion and features lead singer Geoff Rickly of Thursday. Definitely check them out.
I just listen to the instrumentals.
They're like teenage girls.
They like teenage girls too. They all had sex with underage girls in 2004 - 2005. They used to have underage girls with them all time.
Who chews their gum like that?
Cows? Horses? It's sooooo obnoxious and annoying...
+Amy Beth camel
A tosser chews his gum like that.
Cokeheads
George Costanza, or was that an apple lol?
If you watch 6:00 question at .5 speed it's pretty scary lol
lostprophets are playing in ireland on the 18th may in the academy arena dublin and the 19th of may in mandela hall in belfast i cant wait to see them in dublin buy tickets theirs loads left, they are so funny
So how do you feel about the band now? Lol
this aged well lol
Lee, Stuart, Jamie, Mike, and Luke will carry on but for Ian no way because you know Ian is criminal and I think he should spent the rest of his life in prison
their all accomplices, not speaking up because it would ruin their band.
Everyone (except Luke and Illan because neither were present in those instances) have had sex with underage girls because underage girls would be with them backstage all the time. This was around 2004- 2005.
Strange as well how in this Ian & that blonde guy seem like the only decent people in the band
Pretty cheeky towards the fans who paid their wages.
6:20
Yikes
9:00 yikes
0:08 he definitely regret saying that
He is proud and he has no shame...
Good ad for Wales?
Ewwww that other band member said he's seen all the videos.....
how the hell did the rest of the band have no idea what was going on they all seem so close spocky
Because Lee, Stuart, Jamie, Mike, and Luke were unaware of Ian’s crimes because the rest of the band were living in LA while Ian was living in Wales so they haven’t seen Ian for 9 months
They knew
@@zfatbcvxbthsbcv it’s really disrespectful to blame them when the person who should be blamed is currently in prison.
Knock it off
@@recklessintent Who is he blaming? They clearly knew due to the fact they distanced themselves from him, it's pretty obvious. Sorry your feelings got involved.
@@UndersackitchFungalbollock like I said there was a whole lot of distance between them from like the end of them touring liberation until weapons
They lived in America, he lived in wales. There was an interview in kerrang where kerrang were heavily indicating about Ian’s drug use and that something wasn’t right when betrayed was about to finally drop
So unless of course they were with each other 24/7 and had access to Ian’s laptop then no they didn’t know
Ian went missing and the band members had no idea where he was and Stuart knocked him out for it.
They knew about his drug use, and they possibly knew about his womanising. Paedos like Ian will disguise their ways by surrounding themselves with people their own age ie fearne cotton and Alexa chung so people don’t suspect anything
If you want to carry on blaming the band you do you, if it makes you sleep well at night.
These guys had families and I don’t think it’s fair to blame the band; one of them hardly knew Ian as he was new to the band himself as they couldn’t hire a drummer for longer than five minutes
Look at the bigger picture, the guy who did these crimes and absolute disgusting acts of depravity is the one we should be blaming and the mothers of those children, and the people who did know? The police constabularies and social services who did nothing.
Those are the ones we should be blaming rather than the rest of the band and management who tried many times to intervene with his drug use.
Maybe read up on the story rather than use your keyboard as a pitchfork
WATCH FROM 28:00 - 28:13 THE REAL IAN WATKINS THAT LOOK IS PURE EVIL!
Haha it's almost like he's thinking too himself 'I'm such a bad druggy and kiddie fiddler hahaha Euuuurgghhh'
He is pure evil thank God he's in prison.
So many layers to this with hindsight
would you all stop pinning this on the rest of the band members. it was ian and his girlfriends that did that shit. not the rest of the band
I don't think they're entirely guilty. Not saying they plunged to the depths of watkins but they did have young girls knocking about backstage just like the rest of them. By them I mean the kerrang type bands who seem to exclusively write music that appeals to teen girls
@@manonthestreet1703 People always forget about this and acts like the other guys (Lewis, Gaze, Richardson, Oliver and Chiplin) are saints. When they've all fucked underage girls.
Which one punched Ian our? Third from left?
Yes, his name is Stu.
Stuart punched Ian after a show during the warped tour when Ian failed to return for the show
soon Dahvie Vanity will be in Ians position, in prison!!!
I hope.
Hopefully! I don't see it just yet though, there's been barely any progress since the first massive report on it in the Huffington Post a couple years back :/ All those girls who need justice, I pray they get it
@@libby1977 right?! There literally photos on the internet of him kissing what look to be underage girls. He has a police report already on his past I can't believe he hasn't been arrested yet someone with evidence needs to go after him before it's too late
@@graveraider1029 exactly, he better not get away with it :/
can anyone tell what ian said for the 'guilty pleasure' question? we all know what he was probably thinking, but what did he actually say?
The girl who was called “babygirl” asked what their guilty pleasures were
Ian said “you” then said “I’m only joking”
And the blonde guy said “no you’re not” and looks so uncomfortable
He said Heroin, he then says smack again and the other guy starts laughing
@@Snotzalotzno the fuck he doesn't he's looking around chill af. Do you even know what uncomfortable looks like?
One of the greatest UK rock bands ever? Bullsquat.
Ever no but of their generation, probably
This cocky and dry behaviour of UK artists pisses me off.
Lionel Messi is in Lost Prophets?
I always thought the same 😂
Man... Ian.... PHONE OBSESSION? lol
I don't care what everyone says. "Last Summer" remains one of my favourite tracks.
oh my god they knew i feel sick
Totally knew 100%
absolute evil scum cannot believe these vermin roam this planet
Anybody notice that Ian can't get into the flow of the conversation? It's like he's incapable of functioning normally in an adult space. All of his quips are 'slotted in' rather than flowing. He's not gel-ling with the guys.

All the videos ! Going to the dark place ..... okay
Can’t wait until someone mistakes Ian’s for a walnut !!!!!!!! Sick bastard!!!!!
40:31 watch Ian’s face after Luke says this…
Gotta love that "MMMHHHMMMM" at 0:22 !!!
0:22
@theroseoftralee i think that was about the lead singer of taproot, they mention chester bennignton half way through then i think ian or lee sorta mumbles 'but the lead singer of taproot' before his speech :p
He actually answered with heroin first if you listen carefully.
Fiend.
Ong so different than American men
Fallout 3
The one next to the blonde guy said baby girls as Ian guilty pleasure. Disgusting,that guy knew for sure!
Oh I just rewatched that part and didn't catch the blonde guy say it
That comment about seeing the videos is too shady,,,those two were sharing something "going to a dark placec" as Watkins replied ...Watch the interaction between the three of them...At 9.10
1:37 bit dodgy?
JAIL TIME.... the band is gone so sorry for poor judgement yet sicko ? Doing babies and now 29 years in prison will fix that boy ..ALL GONE FOREVER ...
the look on his face at 6:27 is creepy as shit
2nd to left knows
I´m the one who asked about Argentina, Also the one who Lee rejacted xD.
You are still a fan of the band?
Watching this through..
Ian seems to have NO personality.
6:14 - Baby girl, what's your guilty pleasure? Ian "You just answered it I'm afraid" o_O
9:00 iv seen all the videos 😩😱
Yeah, that part made my blood run cold. In fairness to the lad who said "I've seen all the videos," it could well have been a joke on his part, completely oblivious to Watkin's deviant ways. Lets imagine a normal group of young men, all friends, locker room talk etc. It wouldn't be abnormal to pretend you'd seen videos of your friend and his sexual conquests, just to poke fun. Unfortunately for him, he likely had no idea whatsoever, the gravity of such a statement.
yes.... look at him
where is jamie
Why do all bands have that comb down haircut
lol never mind ian being on his phone all the time.. it wos clear he didnt give a shit...
anyone catch there comments on the 911 terror (tracks lol) attacks..
@KMSXxo they r playing in the academy arena in dublin on the 18th may and mandela hall belfast on the 19th may get some tickets theirs loads left
i love lostprophets. Ian looked so innocent
Ah I dont think so.
Not in his home made videos with him, babies and animals. He is a sick F**K!!
@@sobster123 Imean he did.
So did the kids he messed with! #scum
He’s a child predator. He’s so guilty
@IMaTENefrancia i totally agree with what you said, he is a hyprocrite, but a town called hypocrisy was a good song, but they did changed there music, but i agree with ian, linkin park was one of the best rap metal bands, but... lostprophets were the best rock band when they had the 1st and 2nd album released, its a shame, i wish we could of heard more old lostprophets and old linkin park
such a boring interview. probably the worst thing the members of Lost Prophets have ever done.
