The 'Jukebox' star is planning to have fun with his band mates on '4th Dimension' tour.

JLS star Aston Merrygold has said he plans to play pranks on his band mates on their UK tour.

The 'She Makes Me Wanna' group kicked off their huge arena jaunt at the Echo Arena in Liverpool.

Speaking about the tour, Aston told Metro: "I've got a couple of plans this year – I think the best is talcum powder on the pillow.

"If you've got a white pillow and you sprinkle talcum powder on it, you’re not going to see it.

"They're just going to put their head down and half their face is covered in talcum powder. That's a funny one."

Oritse Williams admitted he felt "emotional" during the band's performance last night (14th March).

Meanwhile, fresh from playing the first date of their '4th Dimension' tour, JLS have announced details of another tour, which is set to take place in the summer.

The new jaunt will see the group play eight outdoor shows kicking off at Scarborough's Open Air Theatre on 18th August concluding the outing at the County Showground in Lincoln on 2nd September.
