      101 Amazing Facts about One Direction - Frankie Taylor

      The Basics

      One Direction are the most successful boy band of the decade. Comprising of Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Louis Tomlinson and Liam Payne, they have taken the world by storm.

      All five of the boys auditioned as solo performers for Britain’s The X Factor in 2010. None of them made it through to the ‘boys’ category, yet seeing their true potential, Simon Cowell put them together as a group and they progressed through the show.

      Although they finished third in the grand final, 1D (as the band name is often written) have gone on to find a great deal more success than the acts that finished above them. Rebecca Ferguson was the show’s runner up and didn’t have much of an impact on the charts, and winner Matt Cardle had a few minor successes before being dropped by the Syco record label a couple of years later.

      Four of the boys are British (Harry, Zayn, Liam and Louis) and one Irish (Niall), yet their success hasn’t just been limited to that part of the world! They have become one of the most successful overseas bands in the American Charts, are loved by fans across the whole of Europe, have a dedicated following in Asia and are practically worshipped as deities in Oceania!

      At the time of writing, One Direction have released three studio albums, all of which have been tremendously successful. But fans aren’t just interested in hearing the music, they want to see the band live... and the boys haven’t disappointed! They have already been on three worldwide sell-out tours, and have already confirmed dates for another starting in 2015.

      The band has been showered with awards from across the globe, from BRITs to MTV Music gongs. Billboard, the leading American music magazine declared One Direction as the Top New Artist of 2012 (admittedly they were a little behind the times!) and together the boys are said to be worth an extraordinary amount of money.

      As with most famous bands, there are already tribute acts that tour the country and give fans who can’t see the real thing a small taste of what it would be like. Some are better than
